In early September, RMB WineX returns to Cape Town for the sixth consecutive year. Sponsored by Rand Merchant Bank and partnered by British Airways, operated by Comair Ltd and BDFM’s The Weekender, RMB WineX offers wine-lovers the opportunity to visit many of the Cape’s wine routes over the show’s three day duration. With over 1200 wines per night on offer, from close to 200 South African and international producers, visitors to RMB WineX Cape Town will be spoilt for choice.
Whether you are looking for the latest well-priced treasure or seeking rare award-winning wines, WineX will bring you an infinite selection. There will be numerous laureates from the 2008 Old Mutual Trophy Wine Show, the Decanter World Wine Awards and the International Wine Challenge, as well as an array of the Platter Guide- and WINE Magazine's multi-starred selections.
WineX, in conjunction with RMB Private Bank, will once again, be holding the popular Best-Wine-on-Show Awards, South Africa’s first significant wine awards determined by public opinion. WineX-goers are afforded an opportunity to cast their ballots, voting for their favourite wines in the award-categories of Best White Wine and Best Red Wine on Show.
Hand-crafted cheese, sushi, oysters and olive oils will also be on offer, and for the discerning consumer, imported and local wine accessories and glassware will be on sale.
