Robertson Wacky Wine Weekend
The famous wine region celebrates its 5th Wacky Wine Weekend in 2008
Taking place in the Robertson Wine Valley, the Wacky Wine Weekend has rapidly and firmly established itself as one of the Cape Winelands most popular wine events. 14 000 Visitors grazed the Robertson valley in 2007 and they are looking forward to 2008 when it's this wine festivals' 5th birthday.
Many locals, as well as international visitors book their weekend getaways from Cape Town and move into their cosy B&B’s in advance to indulge in this peculiar festival.
From 6 - 8 June 2008 wineries from Ashton, Bonnievale, McGregor and Robertson will once again pull out all the stops in bringing you the most fun, relaxed and unpretentious wine festival experience!
During the course of the wacky weekend participating wineries and members will host extra activities that will include adventure, food, sports, kids activities, live music and outdoor outings. Join a tractor trip, lazily sit back for a boat cruise or try your hand at some quad biking.
Enjoy some traditional "roosterkoek" , Tripe and "Waterblommetjie-bredie" - a family feast of Bonfire Potjiekos or perhaps some finer cuisine like as sushi and fresh oysters.
There are so many different options for you to enjoy - almost every taste and style is covered in one weekend.
Your Wacky Wine Weekend passport (R40), a stylish tasting glass, must be purchased at your first port of call and serves as registration to the weekend wine festival.
Whether you are a wine connoisseur, foodie or just someone looking to have a good time, the Wacky Wine Weekend is a wine festival not to be missed. Make this your winter weekend away!
