Cult Status
The Soweto Wine Festival has built up cult status over the past 6 years. Having fun and learning about wine in a safe and vibrant atmosphere is truly the Mzansi way. And 2010 is bigger and better! The festival is being increased to 3 evenings plus we are adding a large marquee so there is comfortable space for everyone to taste the vines of Mzansi and have the time of your lives.
The Trend-Setters
This popular festival attracted over 5520 visitors in 2009, and we expect in excess of 6500 visitors in 2010.
But it is not the quantity on people at the festival that is important, but the quality of Mzansi’s most hip and happening trend-setters that this festival attracts.
Find THE ONE
The festival calls on you to dress to impress, taste as many of the Mzansi vines possible and take a short class pairing traditional food with different styles and cultivars i.e. red and white, sweet and dry, as well as fortified, sparkling and Cap Classique wines. But most importantly ‘find THE ONE. This wine is the one that tickles your taste buds, lingers in flavour and fits you like an Armani suit.
It is at the Soweto Wine Festival where you will find it... you just have to sip your way through Nederberg, Saints, Angels Tears to Stellekaya wines to name a few, and don’t stop until you find THE ONE.
VIP’s
Festival visitors include a large VIP set of high-ranking Government Officials; CEO’s of multi-national companies; celebrities and local and national trendsetters - the ‘Who’s Who’ of South Africa’s social elite.
