A unique multi-sensory dinner experience.

From blind tasting to secret locations, Nederburg encourages you to explore.

The Paarl winery’s immersive Dinner of Discovery series is taking wine lovers on an exhilarating sensory adventure, and it’s been a runaway success. The June and July editions were fully booked within days of being announced, and limited tickets now remain for the remaining dates in August and September.

Presented under the bold and imaginative theme of “The African Table”, this year’s edition explores the flavours, fragrances, sounds, textures and stories of the continent through curated menus and paired Nederburg wines, all brought to life across unexpected locations on the farm.

But this isn’t your standard dinner and wine pairing.

Think blindfolds. Mystery wines. Unexpected aromas. Music that shifts your perception. A table in a place you can’t even imagine.

The journey begins the moment you arrive. A glass of award-winning wine is placed in your hand, but without your sense of sight, will you know if it’s red or white? When that visual cue is removed, your focus sharpens. Aromas bloom, textures come alive, flavours unfold in surprising ways.

You swirl. You sip. You taste differently. You feel differently. Suddenly, wine becomes a playground for the senses.

This is the heart of Nederburg’s Yours to Explore philosophy: wine as experience, discovery and connection.

Says Nederburg general manager, Kate Jackson, “The event ties in with our brand promise that there’s a table waiting for you in places you can't even imagine. Not just physical places, but also imagined ones, where your senses are fully alive. In the end, wine is a feeling, a memory, a pleasure that connects us to each other and ourselves. We want guests to apply all their senses when they visit us. To be present. To play. And to discover something memorable.”

Introducing our August Menu at Baccō: a celebration of bold flavour, refined technique, and winter indulgence. 

From the silky decadence of a 30-yolk crab & chilli raviolo to the comforting elegance of our salmon & prawn fish pie, each dish is a layered story told through texture and taste.

Expect the unexpected with our curried crispy cauliflower and lemon zested ricotta wrapped in aubergine — vibrant, plant-forward dishes that stand proudly beside heartier indulgences like our seared beef fillet with cacio e peppe tortellini or the shredded pork belly risotto.

This is comfort food, the Baccō way: thoughtful, artful, and unapologetically delicious.

Available all month long.

Get ready to discover your new favourite sweet sensation!

First, delight in the intriguing dance of flavours with our Salted Citrus Mochi. This delicate confection, with its bright and zesty notes perfectly balanced by a hint of salt, finds its ideal partner in our crisp Estate Sauvignon Blanc. The wine's vibrant acidity and citrus undertones beautifully echo and enhance the mochi's refreshing character.

Next, tantalize your taste buds with our Fennel and White Chocolate Mochi. The subtle liquorice-like notes of the fennel perfectly balance the creamy white chocolate. This unique treat is ideally paired with our elegant Estate Syrah, where the wine's nuanced spice and berry notes beautifully compliment the mochi's delicate complexity.

Finally, surrender to the opulent indulgence of our Smoked Dark Chocolate and Cherry Mochi. The deep, smoky richness of the dark chocolate, complemented by the tart sweetness of cherry, creates a truly decadent experience. This masterful creation is elevated by our sophisticated Estate Collage, a blend designed to stand up to and enhance the mochi's bold and multifaceted profile.

This exciting collaboration with Mochi Mochi promises an unforgettable experience for your senses.
