The artisanal charcuterie board is the perfect accompaniment for the elegant range of Grande Provence red wines. Their new opulent Zinfandel with its origins in the heel of Italy, is tailor made for these country-style cured meats. Ideal for sharing, the Grande Provence charcuterie board is a feast of the finest local and imported ingredients. The generous swirls of coppa, prosciutto di Parma, smoked bresaola and Tuscan salami come with home baked estate seed loaf and bread sticks, wheat biscuits, smoked snoek pâté, estate butter, olives, assorted nuts, fresh grapes and strawberries.

Served daily from 10h00 till 18h00, at R180 for five or six oysters depending on their size, or R340 for the charcuterie board, these new additions are perfect for a light lunch or after work sun downers. The Tasting Room also offers a local cheese board at R120 for a more traditional cheese and wine experience.
