Join us for an awesome evening of Wine & Food with Luddite Wines!

We're so stoked to host Niels and Penny Verberg - some of the most exciting winemakers in South Africa. We'll feature four of the wines alongside a beautifully plated farmers market Satellite dinner by Chef Emma West. 

This is the first time the full lineup will be available for public tasting in the USA and a rare opportunity to meet these rad winemakers! Luddite, btw, was named such as a response to SA's move toward machine farming and large production - the Luddites eschew hi-tech and work instead on an intensely human scale - making some of the best wines anywhere. 

From Peter Andrews, Importer: 

"Niels and Penny Verberg are the founders and owners of Luddite Wine. They are truly legends in the SA wine community. Penny manages their vineyard, while Niels and their daughter, Alice make the wines. Niels is one of the leaders of the Cape Winemaker’s Guild, which is truly the most important organization in SA for shaping the future of its industry. You cannot go to any top restaurant in SA without finding Luddite Wines.

We'll have all wines they produce on hand – 2023 Saboteur White, 2021 Saboteur Red, 2021 Shiraz, and 2023 Chenin Blanc. The latter two are truly in the top echelon on SA wines made. I don't say this lightly, Chenin gives Joly a run for his money with ease. I’ve never shown the Shiraz and Chenin wholesale because they have a cult following here!"

The dinner includes a glass of each of the four wines, satellite dinner, and special presale pricing for all of the Luddite selections should you choose to pre-order these rares! ❤️
