Mother Nature’s annual bounty of grapes has always been a cause for celebration at Delheim, the famous Stellenbosch wine estate. This year’s Delheim Harvest Festival will however, adopt a refreshed style when it returns for one day only, on Saturday, 27 January 2018.
Picture an afternoon of laughter and bonhomie in the cool shade of the giant oak trees. Along with the opportunity to share in grape picking and stomping and the delights of outstanding wine, there will also be also great food and live music entertainment by the multi-instrumentalist rock folk duo, Bottomless Coffee Band.
Out with the old and in with the new: the Delheim Harvest Festival invites guests to come and relax at one long harvest table, whilst feasting on sumptuous harvest fare.
It’s an out-of-this-world spread for fun-loving grown-ups, sharing in the spirit of kinship at the table of the winemakers and Delheim family. This year, only 120 seats are available – a reason to book as soon as possible.
The annual harvest festival toasts these fruits of the season and highlights the importance of communal celebration to the family. It’s about food and wine lovers coming together; and, just as hard as the Delheim team works during harvest, so too can it party as true acolytes of Bacchus.
The Delheim Harvest Festival gets underway at 11.30am, with the harvest feast served at 1pm. Grape picking starts at noon and stomping takes place after lunch. It’s best to dress comfortably for these fun activities!
