t Creation we’re happy to report that we’ve already been hosting the first of the CapeWine delegates on our estate. It’s been a pleasure to welcome, among others, Head Sommelier Julien Laugier and Food and Beverage Manager Somduth Takoor of The Royal Palm in Mauritius.

At Creation we look forward to welcoming wine colleagues from around the world to our stand (K83) at the 2018 CapeWine International Trade Show which takes place from 12 to 14 September at the Cape Town International Convention Centre.

Fresh nasturtium, violet and sorrel flower – these are but a few of the ingredients on the new Creation menu that say: spring is in the air! Aptly titled ‘The Spring Story of Creation’, the exciting pairing menu will be launched on Saturday, 1 September.

Every good wine is a bit of history. It is an occasion, a concurrence of space and time . . .

Ask Creation’s Jean-Claude (JC) Martin what his favourite red wine is and he answers without hesitation: Pinot Noir. And that includes making it and drinking it.

That Carolyn Martin enjoys travelling is no secret, and why she loves it so much is no mystery either.

Visitors to Creation during the magic months of winter often wonder what happens in the vineyards while they are happily sipping our wines at the cosy Tasting Room fireside. Well, the vines go into dormancy but contrary to common belief they are not merely catching up on some beauty sleep! There is in fact a lot of activity going on. 

At Creation we look forward to welcoming wine colleagues from around the world to our stand (K83) at the 2018 CapeWine International Trade Show in September.

Following her culinary adventures in the Netherlands. Carolyn Martin travelled to Switzerland and Burgundy where she enjoyed the hospitality of two of Creation’s partners in wine.

This quote from an anonymous author comes to mind when reading about Carolyn Martin’s memorable wine, flower and herb masterclass recently presented at the magical Kasteel Engelenburg, Brummen in the Netherlands.
