Being a most fortunate young lady, I was
afforded the opportunity to attend a rather special event over a recent
weekend. Having only recently learned the wonders of wine, this particular
event has stood out as a rather important one from the start.
This is not only
because of the rumours of marvellous international & vintage wine tastings
and the gathering of several wine-minded folk in one small area; but mostly because
of the promise of things getting massively out of hand with the rogues of the
wine industry on their home ground. This, my dears, is the appeal of The
Revolution – The Swartland Revolution.
Now in it’s 5th year, the
festival aims to educate, to inspire, to challenge and to intoxicate a limited
number of wine-enthusiasts in the Riebeek Valley on an annual basis. To follow
are my opinions on wines better travelled and far older than myself. May the
Revolt begin!
