Simonsberg Wine Route Market Day
18 February 2013  by Stellenbosch Wine Routes
Spend your weekend with a vibrant Winelands buzz of tastes and treats from the Simonsberg Wine Route, a sub-route of the Stellenbosch American Express® Wine Routes, when this prized strip of savvy wine farms hosts its annual Market Day at Delvera Estate on Sunday, 10 March 2013.
More than 20 estates will descend onto the Delvera agri-village to share their latest wines and way of life with a swarming crowd who wants to soak up the last bit of summer fun.

Young and old can delight in a fun-filled family day blended with the finest wines from the Simonsberg area, country food, craft stalls with proudly local produce, horse rides and live music entertainment by Newton & Co. The younger crowd will have barrels of fun in the play corner with go-cart rides; a trampoline; jungle gym, and a snake and reptile show.

Catering for both novices and seasoned wine enthusiasts, The Vineyard Connection has tailor-made four tutored wine classes which will be on offer at the market. These interactive and insightful wine tastings cost R50 per person and pre-bookings are essential. All proceeds will be donated to the Pebbles Project – a non-profit organisation that supports children living in the Winelands. Contact Tel: 021 884 4360 to book your wine class and contribute to a good cause.

The Simonsberg Wine Route Market Day starts at 9am and entry is FREE. Delvera is situated on the R44 between Stellenbosch and Klapmuts.
