Wine Weekend at Warwick Estate

Enjoy a whopper of a weekend in beautiful Stellenbosch

Warwick Wine Estate is hosting another fun-filled family food and wine extravaganza over the Freedom Day weekend, from 24th until 27th April 2010.

As the doors to the Ratcliffe family’s personal wine vault are opened to the public, wine enthusiasts will have the unique opportunity to sample its finest and rarest wines. 

For those with an adventurous spirit, the ‘Big 5 Safari’ will not disappoint as you enjoy a guided 4x4 vineyard tour, educating you on the five key varietals making up Bordeaux-style blends. This excursion up the mountain-side boasts a zenith overlooking the vineyards, and affords one a panoramic view of Warwick and surrounding farms. 

You can then sit back, relax and linger at leisure, savouring each delectable component of the Bruce-Robertson-inspired ‘Warwick Gourmet Picnic’ at any of the scenic picnic spots on the picturesque farm.

Make this a family excursion and have with complete peace of mind that your children are safe and entertained, as they clamber up one of the state-of-the-art jungle gyms or bounce merrily on the Jumping Castle.  

So make the most of the last days of summer and public holidays, and revel in glorious scenic surrounds, sampling award-winning wines and culinary soupcons.

Entrance and all activities are free expect for the Warwick Gourmet Picnic which costs R299 for adults (serves 2) and R49 per child.
