Limpopo wine lovers can look forward to another exciting wine show when the seventh FNB Limpopo Wine Show returns to Meropa Casino on 25 and 26 July 2013.
As hundreds of visitors since the first show  in 2007 will attest, the festival is designed to delight wine enthusiasts with the latest vintages, matured favourites and new wine accessories and gadgets on the market.  A fun night out for both the guru and novice, the FNB Limpopo Wine Show is proudly brought to you by FNB Private Clients.

As in all previous six years, the exhibitor line-up will turn out an A-list of Cape producers.  Around 40 producers will include prestigious and award-winning cellars such as Quoin Rock, Vrede en Lust, Raka, Cape Point Vineyards, Ataraxia, Clos Malverne and Spier.   Showgoers wishing to plan their tasting experience should visit www.limpopowineshow.co.za for a full list of exhibitors and wines during the week leading up to the show.  Around 200 wines - representing a range of different varieties, styles and popular brands – are all available for sampling and purchase for home delivery via Shop@Show.  The show’s retail service, facilitated by Cybercellar, offers a popular means of stocking up on the Cape’s best wines for the year ahead.

With Polokwane only 3½ hours’ drive away, Gautengers should consider the FNB Limpopo Wine Show as a reason to visit the bushveld province for an end-of-month getaway.  A selection of lodges and accommodation options for a wine weekend visit can also be found via www.limpopowineshow.co.za .
