Due to the resounding success of the third Sasfin Plett Wine & Bubby Festival held in October in Plettenberg Bay, Sasfin and The Fat Fish have decided to bring the event to George on Saturday, 5 November.
At the event, no less than 9 wine farms will offer over 30 different wines from the Plettenberg Bay area. Each wine farm’s stall will serve canapés to complement their wine offerings and guests will also receive a free tasting glass as well as Fat Fish vouchers – all to the sound of live entertainment.
The Plett Winelands comprises an area that stretches from Harkerville to the Crags. Where the first vines were planted in 2001 by Bramon Wine Estate owners, Caroline and Peter Thorpe, the region today includes more than 16 wine farms. Plett has also been recognised as one of South Africa’s “Wine of Origin” regions.
The Plettenberg Bay area’s climate makes it more conducive to cooler-climate wines such as Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir varieties. This region currently creates 7 Méthode Cap Classique-style wines (these are wines that are produced in the traditional Champagne method), and the area has become known as a “Bubbly Route”.
Join The Fat Fish and these Plett wine farms for an afternoon of excellent wine, superb cuisine, and live entertainment, and find out why the Plett Winelands is fast becoming one of SA’s must-visit destinations.
Tickets are available at R200 and can be purchased at The Fat Fish restaurant in George. Contact them on 044 874 7803 or email: george@thefatfish.co.za
