ABOUT
“Wines need an address, it is their ID”, says Albert Ahrens. Having worked vintages in Champagne, Priorat and the Rhone and cutting his teeth at the Swartland winery Lammershoek, it is understandable he should think that way. Albert is now producing wines under two labels; ‘The Ahrens Family Wines’ and an MCC with friend Gerrit Maritz for the ‘GM&Ahrens’ label.Albert has a passion for wines with identity, where terroir shines through and where winemaking intervention, such as oak, plays a minor supportive role. The best address wines feature varietals perfectly matched to terroir and are unique to that place.Set in the rustic True Italic Italian Art Café, join Albert for a fascinating tasting as he shares his journey and passion for wine, complimented by a 4 course authentic Italian meal prepared by famous chef & proprietor Luca di Pasquale.An evening not to be missed.
