To be honest the alcohol ban didn’t really affect me; some people collect stamps, I collect wine. People thought I was crazy pre lockdown. Now South Africans are so scared of being without, we have a whole new population of wine hoarders. I miss a few things; but wine farms is most definitely at the top of the list; touring various wine routes, tasting through wines I wouldn’t have normally in the most picturesque settings. Steenberg is aiming to fill this gap, and not just virtually, with real wine, in your hand, at your home!
Steenberg Cellar @ Home brings the tasting room to you
“Rediscover much-loved wines of the Constantia Valley with Steenberg Cellar @ Home, a tasting room experience in the comfort of your home with a variety of wines available in mixed-case selections.
While wine tastings at Steenberg’s stylish tasting room may still be out of bounds, Steenberg Cellar @ Home lets you enjoy the full wine tasting experience by bringing Cellarmaster Elunda Basson into your home through video clips to guide you through your flight of wines.
You have three different tasting selections to choose from for your tasting at home. The Classic Tasting Selection is ideal for aspiring wine enthusiasts and a great snapshot of what Steenberg has to offer. This introductory flight comprises Méthode Cap Classique, Sauvignon Blanc, Rosé and three red wines.
Raise your glass to the Bubbly Tasting Selection. This flight starts with the fresh and youthful Sparkling Sauvignon Blanc followed by Steenberg’s acclaimed and elegant Méthode Cap Classique range including the flagship prestige cuvée, Lady R.
Splurge on the Flagship Tasting Selection and explore the distinct diversity of what the vineyards on the foothills of Steenberg Mountain have to offer. The blue blooded Italian Nebbiolo, the Natural Sweet Semillon and the iconic and intense Catharina Red Blend are some of the signature wines representing the best of Steenberg in this flight.
Included in each tasting pack is a luxurious brochure guiding you through the full Steenberg wine experience complete with tasting notes, winemaking information and food pairing suggestions. Video clips featuring the cellarmaster and tasting room ambassadors will captivate you with interesting wine stories and guide you through the tasting as if you were sitting in Steenberg’s plush tasting lounge or on the outstretched terrace.
Steenberg Tasting Room is open exclusively for wine purchases between 09h00 and 17h00 from Mondays to Thursdays, or order the wine online for delivery to your door.
