Calitzdorp Port Wine Festival
When: Dates to be confirmed (Sunday, 01 May 2011 to Tuesday, 03 May 2011)
Where: Calitzdorp
Categories: Annual Festivals / Food & Wine
With the successful launch of the Port festival in 1992 and its growth over the ensuing years, Calitzdorp has been firmly established as the Port Capital of South Africa. All the top port producers attend our yearly festival and the SAPPA (South African Port Producers Association) annual general meeting is also held here. Since 1992 the Port festival has been a highlight on the Calitzdorp social calendar. In the past we've had celebrities like Amy Kleynhans and Suzette van der Merwe attending the crowning of our Miss Port competition.
There will be the usual activities including cycling, half-marathon, SA Boulle tournament, street parade, opening of the stalls and the formal Port tasting.
The whole weekend program is packed with activities that cater for the whole family. Boplaas is flying in a top winemaker from Portugal, Tim Stanley Clark and we will be doing comparative tasting with SA and Portuguese Ports (For the serious drinkers).
