Night of the Stars is Vinimark's annual trade wine tasting event where they showcase the best of the best from their wine brand partners. These wine brands present their wines with a Platter's five star-rating as well as Double Gold medal winners at the Michelangelo Wine and Spirit Awards and Veritas Awards.
This year, the event took place in the elegant ballroom of the One&Only Hotel in Cape Town on the evening of Monday 13 February 2023. It was a fabulous showcase of incredible South African wines – everything from impressive Cap Classiques to timeless red blends. Some of the wines that really stood out to me were Krone Twee Jonge Gezellen Blanc de Blancs 2019, Kleine Zalze Family Reserve Old Bushvine Chenin Blanc 2015, Spier 21 Gables Sauvignon Blanc 2021, Spier Seaward Chardonnay 2021, David Finalayson GS Cabernet Sauvignon 2019, Stellenzicht Thunderstone Red 2019, and Delheim Edelspatz Noble Late Harvest 2020.
