As Easter draws near, we eagerly anticipate embracing a cherished tradition that embodies themes of rejuvenation, revival, and jubilation. Among the array of customs and ceremonies synonymous with Easter, one element has stood the test of time and adds a special flair to our celebrations: wine.

Wine has deep roots in religious practices dating back to ancient civilizations. In many cultures, including ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, wine was considered a sacred drink associated with gods and spiritual rituals. It played a central role in various religious ceremonies, symbolizing fertility and abundance.

Today, Easter celebrations continue to embrace the tradition of wine, albeit with a modern twist. 

Families and friends gather to enjoy festive meals paired with carefully selected wines that complement the flavours of traditional Easter dishes. From sparkling wines for brunch to elegant reds for hearty roasts, wine adds an extra layer of sophistication and enjoyment to the festivities.

As we raise our glasses to toast the joyous occasion of Easter, let us also raise a tribute to the enduring legacy of wine, which has journeyed through history as a symbol of faith, fellowship, and the enduring pleasures of life’s celebrations. 

From all of us at Lanzerac we wish you a meaningful and memorable Easter, with love, laughter, and of course a glass.
