Lovers of fine food, great wine and a generally blasting good time, take note:
The Terra del Capo Antipasto Bar at Anthonij Rupert Wyne in Franschhoek has launched their 2017 winter menu, featuring a lipsmacking array of small plate taste sensations! 

Chef HW Pieterse knows his way around Italian cuisine, and sends out small plates popping with flavours to complement the large range of wines and MCC. 

He also bakes some of the best bread this side of the Banting curtain, making Terra del Capo Antipasto Bar one of my top choices for a lazy, leisurely lunch. 

Included in the lineup are a handful of new dishes as well as some signature favourites.

Inspired by regional produce from the winelands, the menu offers a selection of delicious hot and cold Antipasti dishes, perfectly paired with wines from the Protea, L’Ormarins and Terra del Capo ranges.




Cold antipasti include:

Smoked burrata with roasted carrots, pickled beetroot, candied hazelnuts and nasturtium leaves

Artichoke pannacotta with pickled mushrooms, herbs & croutons

Cured estate-raised Angus beef with wild rocket, fermented black garlic and squid ink aïoli, pinenuts & Parmesan 





Hot antipasti, made to order, are:

Crunchy, crispy zucchini fries with aïoli

‘Skilpadjies’ – a South African favourite

Braised lamb arancini (stuffed risotto balls), with a homemade tomato chutney

Crisp fried calamari with parsley and caper aïoli

Salsiccia (Italian sausage) meatballs in rich tomato marinara sauce 
The Terra del Capo Tasting Room and Antipasto Bar are open from Tuesday to Sunday (10am to 4:30pm), but pre-booking is essential. For more information and reservations contact tasting@rupertwines.com or phone 021 874 9041.
