  ON THE DAY

Tuesday 13th October-Wednesday 14th October 2009
Opening hours: 10h00–17h00

The 2009 Wines of South Africa MEGA Tasting will be a producer-led tasting. This year we return to The Brompton Hall at Earls Court, where the additional space and central location provides us with a fantastic venue to showcase various themed tables and celebrate the success of the South African wine industry in this, our 350th year of winemaking. With over 250 producers expected to exhibit, this year?s tasting is probably the single biggest national generic wine event held off-shore by a wine-producing country. It is already attracting significant international interest, with visitors including the UK?s leading wine buyers from the multi-national supermarket chains and specialist wine shops, sommeliers from top restaurants and hotels, as well as the media. They will be joined by an impressive contingent of buyers from across Europe and Asia.

SEMINAR – Wednesday 14TH OCTOBER, 10AM

Introducing SA: DNA
Su Birch, CEO, Wines of South Africa, will present the newly developed cornerstones of brand South Africa. This brand protocol has been devised to give all who market South African wine guidelines to a common language and unified message.

Good, better, blends
South Africa's winemakers are an experimental bunch who are constantly challenging convention and pushing boundaries, the blends from South Africa successfully demonstrate this trait. Lynne Sherriff MW and a number of leading South African winemakers will present an exciting range of red and white blends, for tasting and discussion.
