Why the Free State Wine Show rocks


Cape Town – The Free State is not typically known for wine and wine festivals, but when they do organize a wine expo – they do it properly.

If you’re a wine lover living in the Free State then you should embrace the Free State Wine Show with a tasting glass in each hand.

Quick Info
Where: Emoya Luxury Hotel & Spa, 7 Kleynhans Avenue, Groenvlei, Bloemfontein
Time: 17:00 to 21:00 
When: 30 and 31 July 2015 
Cost: R150 - includes unlimited samplings, includes tasting glass and wine show guide

We love how this festival makes it possible for wine-lovers across the country to enjoy expert South African wine. The event offers locals and visitors alike the opportunity to spend an evening wine tasting and meeting wine-producers in an experience usually reserved for those living a little closer to the Western Cape Winelands.

Part of the joy of wine-tasting is being able to interact with the producers themselves.

Show patrons will be able to taste they old-time favourites, discover new labels, as well as stock up on all of their wine must-haves at excellent prices through the Shop@Show facility.

What is Shop@Show?

This service allows you to shop for your favourite wines at the festival, but saves you the nagging effort of having to carry around your purchases at the event. 

You simply pay for the wines you like and the festival organizers will have it delivered at your preferred destination ASAP. 

Olive, olive products, wine accessories, luxury stemware and artisanal products will also be available for sampling and purchase at the show.
