There is a new look for the Stellenbosch Wine Festival set for January!
The
Stellenbosch Wine Festival, the flagship event of South Africa's iconic
wine region, stomps it's way into a new era this January with an
expanded ten-day program designed to showcase in a bigger, better and
bolder fashion of the delightfully diverse town of Stellenbosch from 25 January until 3 February 2013.
This
annual highlight event, has been moved from its previous mid-winter
schedule in order to capitalise on the unique assets and attractions
Stellenbosch, and its more than 150 wineries, have to offer at the
height of Summer.
The
new date also celebrates the birth of South African wine, thanks to the
entry on 2 February 1659 in the diary of Jan van Riebeeck - "Today,
praise be to God, wine was made for the first time from Cape grapes."
Look forward to spoting events, art exhibitions and musical concerts throughout the town!
A full Festival Guide will be published by the organisers in early January, and details of the entire programme will be made available on the Festival website over the coming months.
Be sure to book your rooms here with us at Evergreen Manor... Spend a few days exploring what's on offer and rest assure that when the day is done, you will lie in the lap of luxury.
