For three nights only – WineX in the (Sandton) City

Monday, October 11th, 2010

Each year, the Cape’s top wine makers make the trip to Gauteng to meet the province’s keenest wine lovers, to share past award winners and introduce the latest vintages and new labels.  Not only geared for wine gurus, RMB WineX is a fun night in the city with the vast array wines for tasting in Bohemia Crystal glasses and complemented with a fare of boutique cheeses, artisanal olives and olive products, stemware and wine accessories.

Don’t be overwhelmed with the daunting task of engaging with around 200 exhibitors and more than 1 000 wines, WineX features a comprehensive festival guide with floor plan and wine lists on www.winex.co.za during the weeks leading up to the show, for you to focus on select cellars, scout your wine trail and it can the most fun under one roof — if you plan your route and stick to the plan.
