From 7 - 10 August 2009 time will go by exceptionally slowly in the beautiful Robertson Wine Valley when the 3rd Robertson Slow will take place. 26 Wineries and Guesthouses from Ashton, Bonnievale, McGregor and Robertson will welcome visitors into their homes, at their dining tables and onto their farms to spend some time... Slowly

Guests can look forward to dinners at the homes of our winemaking families, cooking traditional Robertson Country Fare such as Waterblommetjie Bredie, 7-course Organic Meal, Tripe and Karoo Venison. As always wine will be central to the weekend and you will have ample opportunity to meet with our winemakers to taste and discuss their wines. The weekend will also include some great options where you can learn to make salami, try your hand at making pasta or bake your own vetkoek! Other activities will include Horse Riding, Boating and Fynbos and Renosterveld Walks as well as Nordic Hiking.

On Sunday, 9 August join us for our 2nd annual Regional Food Market where local foodies & cooks alike bring the finest from their kitchens. With live music and plenty of food, this is one of the highlights of the weekend and not to be missed!

This weekend is definitely a must for the wine lover who prefers to take the slower lane - but please do not wait too long to book your tickets as they are limited.
