Wine lovers can look forward to an even bigger and better We Love Wine Festival at Cape Gate Shopping Centre on Friday, 26 August from 17h00-21h00 and Saturday, 27 August from 12h00-18h00. A good mix of well-known producers as well as smaller boutique and family-owned wineries will give northern suburbs vino’s a taste of the best of South Africa’s winelands in one venue.

The Cape Wine Academy is once again presenting a wine theatre (Three sessions on Friday and four sessions on Saturday) with fun tastings and pairings on the programme at set times.  Due to the popularity of the theatre last year, it’s been enlarged to seat 40 keen wine fans during each session.

The Pebbles Project, which looks after disadvantaged children, especially those impacted by alcohol, is the charity beneficiary of the festival and will be present to spread their message and raise funds and awareness. 

Tickets from the door or www.quicket.co.za:  R70 pp (Includes a branded tasting glass). Bookings for the CWA theatre sessions can be made at the ticket office.

A first for the 2016 event is the Gourmet Winter Feast long table dinner at Cape Gate on Thursday, 25 August where 80 guests will enjoy a five star, three course dinner presented by Giggling Gourmet and celebrity Chef Jenny Morris, paired with Perdeberg Winery’s wines.  Tickets are R250 pp and can be booked at www.quicket.co.za.
