Dessert Wines


Hosted By Matthew Renaud

Dessert Wines

A fun filled evening where we explored the wonderful tastes of dessert wines paired with an assortment of desserts, ranging from cupcakes to Lemon Bread.

Despite the Franschhoek Sauvignon Blanc being a clear winner, it was not in theme and therefore our top 3 wines for this evening were:

  1. Neethlingshof's Gewurztraminer
  2. Sensation by Simonsig Wine Estate
  3. Adelpracht by Drostdy-Hof Wines
