For the eighth
consecutive year, over the weekend of 18 - 20 October, the inimitable and
ever-popular Robertson Wine on the River is returning to the banks of the
Breede River. Once again the festival is taking place in a spacious marquee at
the charming riverside farm, Goudmyn, situated on the R317 between Robertson
and Bonnievale.
Enjoy laid-back country
hospitality at its best as you taste more than 300 wines from over 40 wineries,
while soaking up the rhythm of live jazz, ballads and blues. While
wine-tasting is the order of the day, there will be delicious
gastronomic delights from which to choose, whilst: browsing amongst the country
food stalls, shopping your way through the Robertson Farmers’ Market, and much
more. Tutored Chardonnay Tastings will be on offer in the Chardonnay Tent, and
other popular attractions will include river cruises as well as arts and crafts
from the Valley.
Offering a wide variety of
children’s activities, Robertson Wine on the River promises to be a fabulously
festive family affair. Pensioner prices are available and children under 18
enter free of charge, making it more convenient and cost-effective for the
whole family to enjoy all that the Valley has to offer! After free admission,
children’s activities will be charged for on a ‘pay-as-you-go’ system.
Convenient designated
parking areas will be clearly sign-posted en route. For visitors utilising parking
areas further a-field, a shuttle-service will provide transport to and from the
