Join us July 27 for our twenty-third cheese pairing event, as we open the first 2026 vintage wines to land on our shores from South Africa!

And we’re back! For Pairing #23, we have the great privilege of showing off some of the freshest wines in the world right now. While we were bundled up this past winter, the sun was shining hard over South Africa's Cape Winelands, and winemakers there were busy harvesting what is shaping up to be a spectacular 2026 vintage. These wines were still fermenting just a few months ago — and now they're here, fresh off the boat and ready for their American debut. There's nothing quite like tasting a wine this new.

As always, Rachel at Orrman's will be thoughtfully pairing each wine with cheese to show how acidity, texture, and structure can either contrast or amplify flavor. Tickets required — these evenings sell out early.
