Wine Tasting At The Karoo Moons In Aberdeen

On Sunday 3rd October those who were fortunate enough to have bookings, enjoyed a delectable lunch served by Ernest and Ramsay at their 4 Star Restaurant in Aberdeen.
The 3 course luncheon was accompanied by wines from the Groenvlei area which is surrounded by the Herderberg Mountains just outside Somerset West. This is a prime grape growing area which produces some of the best wines in South Africa.

Tertius Naude and Werner Schrenk presented Peter Falke Wines which complimented the dishes served. With their knowledge and expertise, Tertius and Werner shared knowledge about the wines selected and served at the luncheon. Sauvignon Blanc 2008, PF Signature 2003 and Blanc De Noir 2008 were three of the wines enjoyed.
As Peter Falke states on his brochure, his wines reflect ‘the land, the earth, the soil, the sky, the air, the wind, the rain, the light, the sun, the people’.
