Lauren Beukes & Thelema Wines

Treat yourself to words, wine and wonderful food at Grande Roche Hotel’s Culinary Innovations in Paarl on 27 September in the company of award-winning novelist, journalist, scriptwriter and documentary maker, Lauren Beukes.

Lauren won the Arthur C Clarke Award for her novel Zoo City and her latest novel, The Shining Girls was named one of Huffington Post’s top 40 most anticipated books for 2013 and will be adapted for international television release by Leonardo DiCaprio’s production company Appian Way in collaboration with MRC. It’s a thriller that breaks the boundaries and is bound to have readers on the edge of their seats.

Thelema Vineyards is a family owned and managed wine estate in Stellenbosch. Situated at the top of the Helshoogte Pass, it is one of the highest and coolest estates in the area. The combination of Thelema’s wine making style, the high altitude and deep red soils result in flavourful, flamboyant, complex and long- lasting wines with a distinctive South African character. Thelema is an icon in the South African wine landscape and was recently rated one of the world’s top 100 estates.

Crime and thrilling adventure combined with the culinary alchemy of Bosman’s Restaurant’s Chef Roland and fine Thelema wines, all add up to an entertaining evening for gastronomes and bookworms alike.
