    Join the harvest in Robertson Wine Valley

    This year's Robertson Wine Valley's Hands-On Harvest will take place from 22-24 February 2013, as a boutique fun-filled family event, offering a wide variety of activities that will appeal to both wine lovers and budding vintners.

    Activities


    • Experience the excitement of harvesting one's own grapes;
    • Witness the art of wine-making;
    • Enjoy a farm breakfast while overlooking the vineyards;
    • Take a 'breakfast boat trip' on the Breede River;
    • Make a family event of grape-stomping;
    • Take part in a wine-tasting trail, on horseback or by horse-and-cart;
    • Take a tractor trip through the vineyards and experience the landscape from a different vantage point;
    • Picnic in the vineyards;
    • Relish a 'harvest-lunch' while sipping on the fizz of award-winning bubblies;
    • Be treated to an engaging discussion on 'Grape vs Wine' and compare the flavours of the grapes with the resulting wine;
    • Shop at leisure at the Harvest Market;
    • Be educated through informative talks and demonstrations;
    • Indulge at the Harvest Spit-braai;
    • Relish a Harvest Dinner prepared by a master chef

    As some of the wineries participating in 'Hands-On Harvest' are not ordinarily open to the public, the focus will be on hosting a series of intimate events. This ensures that guests enjoy the best, most personalised and 'hands-on' experiences.
