I am delighted to have 6 sets of double tickets valued at R 200 each to giveaway countrywide to attend the highly anticipated Sommeliers Selection tasting events which are back this October in Johannesburg, Durban and the Western Cape with over 400 wines from the country’s top wine estates on offer!
The Sommeliers Selection is the only South African wine competition judged solely by a panel of South Africa’s top sommeliers, in categories fashioned around the perfect varietals for both a restaurant wine menu and to accompany food.
This year more than 400 wines from the country’s top wine estates were entered into the contest. Winning wines, beer and gin come from more than 60 farms with stand-out wines including the Glen Carlou Chardonnay 2018, Plaisir de Merle Grand Plaisir 2014, Idiom Bordeaux Blend 2015, Villiera Wines Tradition Brut NV, Peter Falke Wines Méthode Cap Classique 2013 and, in the craft beer category, the Cape Brewing Company’s Mandarina Bavaria IPA.
There are 2 sets of tickets for Joburg and 2 set for Durban up for grabs!
Jozi – Wed 16 October from 18:00 to 21:00 at Tsogo Sun Hyde Park (Pool Deck)
Durban – Thurs 31 October from 18:00 to 21:00 at Beverley Hills Hotel, Umhlanga
Comment below – tell me which wine you are looking forward to tasting the most, and also which city you live in – and it could be you!
Competition closes 7 October and winners will be contacted via email. Tickets are not transferrable and cannot be redeemed for cash.
