Nederburg Harvest Day in Paarl

The recent heat wave has accelerated ripening in the vineyards selected for Nederburg’s annual Harvest Day, in Paarl so this year the event will take place on Saturday 25 February 2012.

Come along and share in the bountry at the Nederberg Harvest Day. Join the fun and festivities at Nederburg’s harvest day and participate in creating some of the winery’s award-winning wines.

On arrival, you’ll be treated to a refreshing glass of sparkling wine. Then it’s over to the expert harvesting team, who’ll teach you how to hand-pick perfectly ripened grapes.

You will get to taste freshly pressed grape must, the fermenting juice, as well as some tank samples of wine, following the journey from the vineyard to the bottle.

After harvesting, a scrumptious barbeque-style brunch and some fine Nederburg wines will be served on the rolling lawns in front of the historic 19th century Manor House with spectacular views of the surrounding vineyards and majestic Drakenstein Mountains.

Harvesters stand a chance to win a gift pack of Nederburg wines in a lucky draw. It is strongly advised to bring a hat, sunscreen and comfortable shoes.
