Wines of Hermanus and the Overberg

slap bang in the middle of a truly great
wine region. Without exception, From

in this cool climate region are known
for producing premium wines of
exceptional quality. In an effort to

wine and food destination, Wines of
Hermanus and the Overberg Region Wine
Festivals offer visitors the opportunity
to experience wines exclusively from
this region. These festivals have become
popular events where the whole family is
welcome.
A Whale Festival without the enticing of
the palates of all wine-loving visitors
just wouldn’t be the same! Make sure to
go and explore and enjoy great wines
from our region – the Wine Festival

courtyard.
Entry fee is R50 per adult and includes

sheets guide epicurians in selecting
food to complement their wine of choice,
rounding off the ultimate taste
experience. To further welcome the whole
family - under 10 year olds enjoy free
hotdogs and sugar-free fruit juice!
The region is known, amongst others, for
its premium brands of Chardonnay,
