Intellego Masterclass
Taste five Intellego wines from the Swartland with winemaker Jurgen Gouws, each pour paired with a snack by Chef Blaine.
Intellego Masterclass Monday, October 12, 20266:00 PM Intellego means "I understand" in Latin. By the end of this masterclass, you'll understand why Jurgen Gouws and his wines have earned such a loyal following. Jurgen started Intellego as a small side project in 2009 while working at Lammershoek.
Today, he works with vineyards across the Swartland, taking a minimal-intervention approach in the cellar and using techniques such as whole-bunch fermentation and skin contact across different wines. We'll be opening five bottles from the Intellego line-up and getting into the vineyards, stories and decisions behind each one. Chef Blaine will be pairing every pour with a snack, because learning about wine is much better when there's something good to eat between glasses.
