Monday, 3 August, 2015
Robertson Wine Valley
Enjoy the simple pleasures in life and head out to the country for the eighth annual Robertson Slow during the weekend of 7 to 10 August 2015. Enjoy the Robertson Wine Valley’s slow-living festival where everything is “slowly made .... slowly enjoyed”.
Relish the slow food and wine that will satiate your senses and revel in the relaxed pace that will replenish your soul. Delicious and indigenous meals such as waterblommetjiebredie and Karoo venison will be on offer.

Robertson Slow is one of the most anticipated and intimate festivals of the year and the Robertson Wine Valley is looking to attract visitors yearning to experience the charm of country life in intimate settings characterised by each farm’s unique personal touch. While enjoying time-honoured activities, visitors will be afforded the opportunity to interact with winemakers and wine farmers in an informal setting, getting to know them and their respective families.

A few of the many activities that can be enjoyed at Robertson Slow are:
•Indulge in delectable traditional cuisine, many produced from local valley ingredients;
•Partake in wine-tastings and enjoy dinners in the homes of local winemaking families;
•Revel in the beauty of biodiversity with fynbos and renosterveld drives;
•Enjoy a slow cruise on the Breede River or go for a scenic horse ride;
•Attend a food, wine and olive oil pairing;
•Browse and shop at leisure, on Sunday, 9 August, at the annual Robertson Valley Regional Food Market and choose from a colourful array of delectable fresh produce.

Robertson Slow may be focusing on the ‘slow’ way of life, but don’t be ‘slow’ in booking your place at some of the events which best represent your interpretation of the essence of country living.
