Pick n Pay Wine & Food Festival

Wine enthusiasts, oenophiles, and food connoisseurs – grab a glass and head to the Pick n Pay Wine & Food Festival Johannesburg next month for a day of award-winning wine tasting and cuisine to take your taste buds on an unforgettable journey.

Indulge in the finest selection of some of South Africa’s top wine varietals, from full-bodied reds to crisp and fruity whites and everything in between. “The Pick n Pay Wine and Food Festival offers an array of wines to suit every palate, with winemakers and expert sommeliers on hand to guide visitors through tastings to appreciate the unique flavours and aromas of each wine fully,” says Katie Bailie, Pick n Pay Senior Wine Buyer.

The festival will have a dedicated Sparkling Wine area, celebrating both locally-produced Cap Classique and French Champagne. In keeping with the trend for no-and-low alcohol wines, a smattering of stands will offer tastings in these wine categories. The Valpre water station will ensure guests stay hydrated with ample fresh water.

Over 30 of the wines available for tasting at the event can be purchased at the on-site Pick n Pay Wine Shop. These can be enjoyed at the Festival or taken home. Those who don’t feel like lugging their purchases around can order it on Pick n Pay asap! for same-day delivery.

In the popular Pick n Pay Tasting Room, chefs and winemakers will share their picks from their estates and pair them with mouth-watering canapés in a tasting masterclass that will leave you wanting more. Each session is 30 minutes, and booking is essential as they fill up quickly.
