Go Big in the Boland! Stellies brings on a serious winter jol.
Meet the winemakers, sample over 500 wines and get vino cred with varietal comparative tastings. And the fun doesn't stop there - check out how Stellenbosch celebrities and winemakers battle it out in the kitchen!
Drool at the contest of the über chefs as they sizzle and sweat in out under your nose. There are wines on offer to suit every palate, as well as every pocket so don't forget your credit card - you can purchase your favourite festival find at the on-site wine boutique.
Sporty wine enthusiasts can pedal out their excess energy at the Mountain Bike Challenge on Saturday and perhaps grab a lucky draw or big prizes. Don’t forget to bring the kids on Sunday for fun entertainment at the Festival Café while you sample Stellenbosch's best.
