Robertson Wine on the River Festival returns
The Robertson Wine on the River festival will return to the banks of the Breede River over the weekend of 15 to 17 October, 2010. The festival will be held in a spacious marquee at the riverside farm, Goudmyn, on the R317 between Robertson and Bonnievale.
Enjoy laid-back country hospitality at its best as you taste more than 300 wines from over 40 wineries, while soaking up the rhythm of live jazz, ballads and blues. While wine-tasting is the order of the day, there will be delicious gastronomic delights from which to choose, whilst browsing amongst the country food stalls, lunching at the riverside restaurant, shopping your way through the Robertson Farmers' Market, and more. Tutored chardonnay tastings will be on offer in the Chardonnay Tent, and other popular attractions will include river cruises as well as arts and crafts from the valley.
Children free
The festival offers a wide variety of children's activities and children under 18 enter free of charge. After free admission, children's activities will be charged for on a "pay-as-you-go" system.
Convenient designated parking areas will be clearly signposted en route. For visitors utilising parking areas further afield, a shuttle-service will provide transport to and from the festivities.
Cellar-door prices
With wines being sold on site at cellar-door prices, Robertson Wine on the River provides the opportunity to stock up on your favourite Robertson wines.
This year, festival-goers will have the opportunity to win fabulous competition prizes. The tickets for the competition will only be on sale at the festival site.
