The finer things in life at the Le Kap Lifestyle Fair
The second annual Le Kap Lifestyle Fair is to be held on 6 December, 2014, at Blaauwklippen Vineyards, Stellenbosch, Western Cape. The fair is a symbiosis of gourmet food, fine wine, whisky, artisanal drinks, fashion, automobiles, design & décor along with musical kur and showjumping.
The event brings together all the key lifestyle elements you wish you could have in one event and offers them up to a group of like-minded people who enjoy the finer things in life. Imagine discovering a one-of-a-kind couture dress whilst relishing the finest French champagne, fine wine or savouring gourmet canapés by one of the Cape's finest chefs. Relax on leather couches while sipping the perfect single malt whisky, before preparing for a game of French boules on the estate's lush lawns. The event's brand partners include prestigious brands such as Bentley, Veuve Clicquot, Glenmorangie, and Belvedere Vodka amongst others, and marries it with 10 of the Cape's top wine farms and five of the country's top chefs.
Celebrated South African chefs such as Bistro Sixteen82's Brad Ball, Gregory Czarnecki from Waterkloof, Malika van Reenen from the Cape Grace, Roland Gorgosilich from the Grand Roche, and Steve Jeffery from the Bistro at Blaauwklippen will showcase their virtuosity as they prepare gourmet food in the event's exhibition kitchen in the piazza area. A selection of their food will be served to guests throughout the afternoon, together with an array of gourmet food markets, which will offer additional menu items for sale on the estate's sprawling lawns. Wine connoisseurs can also look forward to tastings from 10 of South Africa's top wine estates, which is one of the highlights of the day.
Various artisanal drinks will be on offer and alerting the senses will be the sound of horses' hooves pounding on the estate's sprawling, lush lawns as the Musical Kur (dressage) show enraptures spectators. Riders will showcase their skill as they perform a pattern of choreographed movements to music, which will be a prelude to a six-bar showjumping competition to follow later in the afternoon.
Glitz and glamour
Fashion cognoscente will enjoy a carefully curated contemporary experience as they gather on the terraces to watch a fashion show featuring South Africa's top designer labels. The show will add an element of glitz and glamour to the chic affair. Unique to the Le Kap Lifestyle Fair - fashionistas and guests will be able to browse the fashion emporium after the show.
Gracing this year's Le Kap Lifestyle Fair will also be some of Bentley Motors' finest luxury motoring marques. Motoring enthusiasts can get up close and personal with the latest releases by Bentley as it showcase its finest collection.
