2018 Oyster Wine & Food Fest to be held on Spring Day weekend
The 2018 Oyster Wine & Food Festival will be held at the Stables Village Centre in Chartwell, Gauteng from 31 August-2 September 2018. The festival is expected to deliver a gastronomic experience and culinary delights paired with beverages of note.
Visitors will not only be treated to exclusive products from gourmet food traders including Mozambican style prawns, sizzling steaks, smooth rich chocolate, and the star of the show the Oyster, but they will also be able to meet winemakers, cocktail designers, chefs, as well as some of South Africa’s finest Method Cap Classique (MCC) producers.
“Our Oyster Wine & Food Festival (OW&FF) not only satisfies a visitor’s penchant for excellent food and beverages but also offers guests the opportunity to participate in exclusive pre-booked events where knowledge is also shared by experts,” says wine and gourmet food connoisseur and OW&FF spokesperson Judith Lee.
An oyster dinner prepared by, and shared with, legendary South African Braai Master personality and first-class Chef, Justin Bonello. This spectacular affair will not only be a platform to introduce diners to this culinary expert, who is similarly a popular author and filmmaker but will also offer the exclusive tasting of his creations in an environment which he is passionate about. The dinner will be hosted by Samp & Soufflé Culinary Adventures, which will be accompanied by a wild selection of wines and special prizes and can be booked through TicketPro.
If you are keen to know whether a wine is great or just ordinary, then book at one of the eight fun and educational Wine Bitches Wine Theatre sessions. Judith Lee and industry expert Charmaine Cockhead will guide attendees through the chronicles of wine creation from vine to glass, where they may revel in the history of wine, delight in the idiosyncrasies that come to the fore in the making, marketing and consuming of this grape nectar, as well as learn about tasting and scoring.
For a more intimate and exclusive experience at the festival, visitors can book comfortable seating at the VIP Pavillion where a platter of oysters, a glass of bubbly and delightful foods will be served. Exclusive parking and a bottle of wine to take home.
Entrance tickets for the event may be purchased on the day.
