Wine, glorious wine–in the renowned Franschhoek valley.
When: 15 & 16 September
Where: Franschhoek Valley
What better way to embrace Spring time in Cape Town than with a wine-filled weekend, overlooking the vineyards. This year’s Franschhoek Uncorked Festival is a great occasion to explore one of South Africa’s premier wine destinations as you enjoy a variety of activities at each of the participating winefarms.
Move from one estate to the next sampling the wines on offer, which will include new release wines as well as award-winning gems. The two-day festival offers Franschhoek’s winemakers the platform to showcase their select range of new release wines–It’s a great opportunity to start stocking up for Christmas too!
Participating farms include:
Allée Bleue, Black Elephant Vintners, Boekenhoutskloof, Boschendal Wine Estate, Dieu Donné Vineyards, GlenWood, Haut Espoir, La Bourgogne Farm, La Bri, Leopard’s Leap Family Vineyards, Lynx Wines, Mont Rochelle, Noble Hill Wine Estate, Paserene Wines, Rickety Bridge Winery.
Festival highlights include themed tastings, bespoke meals, live music, old school lawn games and more... See the full festival programme here!
With so much to do, it makes perfect sense to stay over and take full advantage of the weekend’s activities. Book into one of Franschhoek’s luxurious accommodation establishments, which range from quaint B&B’s and guest houses to 5-star boutique hotels. Rather than rushing your experiences, allow yourself the time to really enjoy yourself, uncovering world-class shops, art galleries and boutiques during your Franschhoek Uncorked weekend.
