Glissando, Grapes, Gourmet at 144 Oxford

The GGG @ 144 offers a captivating sensory journey akin to the unfolding notes of a fine wine.

The experience begins with the soothing sounds of a French Electric Blue Harp, which strums a melody as gentle as the first whiff of a Vergelegen vintage. This harmony sets the stage, building up to a sumptuous five- course menu that sings with flavour, each course gracefully paired with the finest wines from Vergelegen Wine Estate. Like a well-orchestrated symphony, the glissando of the harp pairs with the culinary crescendo, culminating in a flavor profile as complex and satisfying as the Vergelegen Blends on your palate.

Anglo American, the proud proprietor of Vergelegen Wine Estate, has diligently nurtured the art of winemaking since its first harvest in 1992.

Like the slow, rich development of a robust wine, their dedication and effort has matured over the years. Within a decade, Vergelegen was acclaimed for producing some of South Africa’s finest wines.

The estate’s signature wines, the cabernet sauvignon blend – Vergelegen, single vineyard cabernet sauvignon – Vergelegen V, and Semillon/Sauvignon Blanc blend – Vergelegen White, have all earned a five-star rating in John Platter’s prestigious annual Guide to South African Wines, a testament to their quality, much like a well-aged bottle of wine.
