On Wednesday, Aug. 20, Vino Venue executive chef Patric Good invites guests to a Babylonstoren Wine Dinner with guest speaker Christi Moon, president of Babylonstoren US. This intimate, multi-course dinner features Babylonstoren wines paired with a South African-inspired menu, highlighting the estate's signature offerings—from chenin blanc to Nebukadnesar red blend.

Guests will enjoy insights from Moon on the winery’s history, terroir and craftsmanship.

The event includes a reception and four curated courses, each paired with wines from the iconic Babylonstoren estate in Franschhoek.

Established in the heart of the Cape Winelands, Babylonstoren is one of South Africa’s oldest farms, offering a unique blend of tradition, sustainability and modern winemaking. The wines reflect the region’s rich terroir and the estate’s commitment to quality and authenticity.

Seating is limited. Tickets are $125 per person (includes tax and gratuity) and reservations are required online.
