SWEDISH COUNTRY FARM STALL: vinegar, olive oil and wine |

FARM STALL
photo: Gunnar Nydrén |
ROZENDAL FARM |
Rozendal Farm comprises of 6ha of old vines, 4ha of pastures, 2ha of gardens and living space and 13ha of forest and fynbos. The farm is situated in the Jonkershoek Valley on the border of Stellenbosch, at the foot of the Jonkershoek Mountains.
Since 1994 Rozendal is managed biologically (bio+logical = biological) with an environmental and health conscious approach, which ensures clean air and pure water. In May 2001 we switched to Bio dynamic farming methods and have become members of the Bio dynamic Agricultural Association.
We have a mixed farming operation including vegetables and animals (dairy cows and horses). All life is encouraged.
|
|
| |
| Our philosophy of food and health has culminated in these unique products: |
| |
|
Rozendal Mixed Vinegar
This vinegar is macerated with green tea, chili, carob, lavender, sweet pepper and kelp. Use as an aperitif or mix with water for a refreshing quencher. |
|
Rozendal Lavender Vinegar
This vinegar is infused with lavender grown on our farm. Try a vinegar reduction: heat a large saucepan and allow simmering until caramelised. |
|
Rozendal Fynbos Vinegar
This vinegar is macerated with herbs from South Africa´s unique Cape Floral Kingdom - buchu, wild rosemary, wild olive and rose geranium. Fynbos herbs chosen to reflect the rich bio diversity of the Cape Biome and for it´s medicinal properties. |

|
|
| |
|
|
FRUITS of THE KAROO |
|
are a medely of pure organic Aloe ferox and selected fruits from the Karoo - carefully blended into an exiting range of healthy and refreshing beverages. num-num, buchu, devil´s claw, pomeganate and prickly pear.

MINERALWATER FROM SOUTH AFRICA: |
To accompany our fine wines, and at the request of our chef, Jeffery Scott Brown, we found this premium brand mineral water from Karoo.
Since a couple of years our Cape Karoo mineral water is bottled at source from Paarl, Paardeberg Mountains. Quality from this new source and the packaging is supreme and we are very glad to have achieved to be a world wide recognized premium water brand.
note: It can be argued that water should not be freighted over the world, and we can agree to this. In this case we made an exception as our main objective of the Three Lily Buds venue is to present a as complete picture of South Africa as possible.

|
|
WINES FROM SOUTH AFRICA: |
Our restaurant/subsidiary company Terrawine also imports
and offers its high quality organic wines to other licensed
establishments.
Currently featured wines are:
- The organic cult wine Rozendal -02 by Nathalie and Tanya at ROZENDAL, Stellenbosch.
- Reyneke Reserve -05. 100% Shiraz. A widely recognized quality wine.
- Reyneke Cornerstone -06. Great balanced wine for the discerning.
- Reyneke Sauvignon Blanc -07, Fantastic light and fresh wine with a sparkling hint.

Reyneke wines
"Ultimately one
of the greatest benefits of bio-dynamics is
its ability to create a greater sensitivity and awareness of our
inability to understand and explain everything. This leads to a respect
and tolerance for that which does not seem important to us. Finally it serves
as a counter measure for the
overbearing materialism and spiritual poverty that is the hallmark of
our modern culture."

Johan Reyneke.

MIGLIARINA SHIRAZ 2005 |
NOSE BAR REVIEW (2004):
"What wine do sommeliers like to recommend? Their own! Carsten Migliarina has forsaken a life of watching others drink in order to make his own delicious and elegant shiraz, much of which he does, of course, drink himself. And very right and proper too - if I could make wine as tasty and more-ish as this, that is certainly what I would be doing as well so we must grab our share while we can - dark brooding black fruits and a creamy vanilla finish."
We grabbed 60 cases.

Mandela, the boxer.
"I was never an outstanding boxer, I did not enjoy the violence of boxing so much as the science of it. I was intrigued by how one moved one's body to protect oneself, how one used a strategy both to attack and retreat, how one paced oneself over a match. Boxing is egalitarian. In the ring, rank, age, colour, and wealth are irrelevant."
Nelson Mandela.
