Siris Vintners Trade tasting at The Mount Nelson

We are always delighted to be invited to cover Trade wine tastings and attended the Siris Vintners trade tasting at the Mount Nelson Hotel last Monday


Colyn Truter showing us how easy it is to remove the wax cap on the Arendsig wines from Robertson
The wines available for tasting and, hey, are all worth it!
James Pietersen of The Wine Cellar tasting them with Colyn
It was a very busy tasting with many sommeliers, restaurateurs and wine retailers
Lots of tasting and lots of chatter amongst the wine industry representatives takes place
Mark Herd of Sunset Beach Wines chats to Megan Mullis of Domaine des Dieux, who were showcasing their award winning MCCs and their other wines
Gielie Beukes, winemaker/viticulturist, Sue Anderson who does their PR and Johan Fourie, General Manager,
Doolhof Wine Estate with these three impressive wines. We loved them all and think the new branding is very appealing
and will jump off the shelf in wine shops
Riaan Moller with his Lievland Liefkoos Rosé from Grenache and a little Mourvedre
On the Fable Mountain stand was Keelyn Gibbons with their Raptor Post wines and The Night Sky Red and Syrah
