WIN: Wine O’Clock Hits KZN (27-29 August 2014)

Published

on

— competition closed —

The Mercury Wine Week is KZN’s largest and longest standing wine show. In its 36th year, this sumptuous event has wine lovers from across the province thirsty for the illustrious array of Cape grapes. Hundreds of wines from the vineyards of the West will be exhibited under one roof and tasted by East Coast wine lovers and learners. Durbanite has 2 x double tickets to giveaway. To enter please comment below telling us why you would like to win. *T&C’s apply

Unlimited wine tasting each evening is coupled with a brand new feature, the Grindrod Bank Wine Theatre. This theatre will host three dedicated tastings each night, hosted by individual wine estates. Visitors are invited to pause for 20 minutes to learn about the estate and tantalise their taste buds with their unique aromas and flavours.

Finger foods and cheeses by Fairview and Checkers provide the perfect nibbles to accompany the fine wine. For those who consider ‘wine o’clock’ a sacred affair, a special R160 ticket will offer a satisfying two-night pass, valid for Wednesday and Thursday nights only. For wine clubs or groups of 10 people or more, a 20% discount applies.

Buy your tickets at the door or beforehand from Computicket at R100 per person.

27-29 August 2014

17:30 to 20:30 each night, at SUNCOAST

 

No under 18’s. Please drink responsibly. 

Proceeds from the show will be donated to the Mercury Hibberdene Children’s Holiday Home.

    We look forward to the Mercury Wine Week and have been attending for the last four years. We almost always leave having bought far too much wine, along with rosy cheeks and a big fat smile. No other wine show in KZN does it better!

    I am just an extroverted young lady who loves and enjoys attending all sorts of events to get to know what is hip and happening within SA’s entertainment industry. A ticket to the show would give me more knowledge about what the different kinds of wine i drink most of the time when out, and i may just find my favourite – as all wine to me tastes good!

    I am currently holding a bunch of grapes hostage… they are locked in my fridge where no one can find them… unless you know where I live.

    Give me the tickets and all the grapes will be set free. Give them to someone else and lets just say I’ll squash the life out of them…

    Do the right thing and save a bunch of grapes today!
