TRADITIONAL AFTERNOON TEA
Afternoon Tea as a specific meal did not evolve until the beginning of the 19th century,
although the drink had been popular since its introduction in 1559.
Anna, Duchess of Bedford, invented the meal to fill the time between early luncheon
and late dinner which she felt proved to be a low point of many a country house party.
As time progressed, it became a meal surrounded by etiquette and very strange
customs, silver tea pots, delicate china, cake stands and starched white linen napkins,
whether to pour the milk before or after the tea?
The heyday of the afternoon tea was in the days of the British Empire when the “sahib”
and his family, having earlier had luncheon, would have to wait until the cool of the late
evening to take dinner.
Afternoon Tea once again filled the gap – when they returned home, they brought the
ceremony back home with them. It was at this point the fashionable Hotels took wholeheartedly to the serving of traditional Afternoon Tea.
Our traditional afternoon tea is the perfect balance of sweet and savoury and features
sandwiches, delicate pastries, fruit scones and cakes.
Traditional Afternoon Tea
Finger sandwiches: smoked Scottish salmon with cream cheese, free range egg
mayonnaise with cress, roast ham and Dijon mustard.
Warm, freshly baked fruit scones served with clotted cream and strawberry preserve.
Last, but not least, our mouth-watering pastries and cake.

14 The Gourmet Shiraz, South Australia
g Australia

19.95
15 Etchart Privado Malbec, g Cafayate Valley, Argentina
16 Luis Felipe Edwards Reserva Merlot, h Colchagua Valley, Chile
18.95
A rich, yet very soft and juicy example of what many regard as Argentina’s most successful red grape. The grapes have suicient time
to ripen fully during the long growing season in Cafayate. Aged for six months in oak, this is an excellent example of the modern style
of winemaking now increasingly the norm in Argentina.
Colchagua is one of the best regions in Chile for Merlot, the grapes for this wine were grown in a single vineyard block called Las
Mulas. Jam-packed with juicy dark forest fruits and plum: there is a good degree of complexity, added to by some toast and spice
acquired during a brief period of oak-ageing.

h Grand Cru, France
34.95
A chteau whose vineyards and winemaking has been hugely upgraded under owner Jonathan Maltus since he acquired the property

fresh fruit expression and good length and balance.

h Spain
Predominantly Tempranillo with the balance being small percentages of Graciano and Mazuelo, this wine is matured for 25-30
months in American oak barrels before a minimum of three years in bottle. Mature, velvety-smooth in the mouth and with great
complexity. In a bottle with traditional wire covering: this epitomises the flagship of the Faustino range.
19 Kleine Zalze Vineyard Selection
h Cabernet Sauvignon, Stellenbosch,
South Africa
19.95
From 30-year-old vines on the original Kleine Zalze farm. Traditional fermentation and long maceration for maximum colour and fruit

flavours such as blackcurrant, cassis and warm cedar notes.

b Dry, herbaceous or aromatic white
c Juicy, fruit-driven ripe white
