The Veritas Awards, South Africa’s oldest and most esteemed wine show, celebrates 25 years of excellence in wine this year. Over a quarter of a century the competition, organised by the South African National Wine Show Association (SANWSA), has established itself as the foremost authority on wine quality and a perennial highlight on the industry calendar.

To celebrate the monumental milestone, Veritas has announced a series of exclusive food and wine evenings. The next event will take place at the Cullinan Hotel’s Peach Tree Restaurant on 14 April 2015 at 18:30. Capetonians can look forward to a culinary feast fit for the occasion, expertly paired with a selection of recent Veritas gold and double gold winning wines.

The dinner will be prepared by celebrity chef Bertus Basson from Overture Restaurant. Basson rose to fame by establishing Overture in Stellenbosch as one of the finest restaurants in South Africa, featuring in the coveted Eat Out Top 10 for six years running. He is highly regarded for his commitment to using fresh, local ingredients and skill in perfecting the detail of every dish.

The dinner will be hosted by Veritas vice-chairperson and well-known Cape Wine Master, Bennie Howard, who will discuss the wines and share interesting insights on the activities of Veritas. Tickets for this not to be missed event are R350 per person and bookings can be made by contacting Liesl Els on 021 415 4000 or liesl.els@tsogosun.com
