Perfect Balance: South Africa’s Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux-Style Blends (Free)

South African Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux-style blends offer arguably the world’s best balance of Old World and New World characteristics in all of wine. With winter approaching, it is the perfect time to explore the wonderful, fairly-priced, but still underappreciated red wine category with Mark Oldman.

We will cover:

• Why South African Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux-blends are loved by insiders
• What distinguishes South African Cabernet from its counterparts in France, the U.S., and elsewhere
• Devastatingly good food pairings with this robust but elegant wine type
• Insider terminology, regions, and wineries to know

Moreover, if you’ve ever been to one of Mark’s presentations, you know it is brimming with humor and his trademark “nuggets” of useful insider information that you won’t find anywhere else.

If you’d like to taste along with Mark, please see the wines below and ask your local merchant to source one or more of them.  Or you can purchase four of the six bottles through this special Bevinars kit at Wine.com.

There is no charge for this virtual event, but attendance is limited, so please reserve your spot ASAP. After the tasting, registrants will be sent a link to the video recording to review or in case they cannot make the livestream.
