Oldenburg Masterclass with Nic van Aarde, Tuesday 1st October at 7pm
It’s a real pleasure to welcome wine maker Nic van Aarde from Oldenburg to Yorkshire. We were really excited when we tasted the range from Oldenburg at the beginning of the year and it still stands as one of our best finds of the year so far. Oldenburg is in a pretty unique valley, half way between Stellenbosch and Franschhoek with no other wineries around it. They make fantastic well made wines which are pure and characterful. The whites have a lovely freshness and the reds have beautiful richness and silky tannins.
The event will start with an aperitif, followed a tasting of six wines tutored by Nic. After that we will serve charcuterie and cheese sharing boards and relax and enjoy a glass of their wine.
