Pop the corks! The Johannesburg Cap Classique & Champagne Festival is back.
It’s been two years since we last enjoyed this event … which gives us the chance to try some of some of South Africa’s finest Méthode Cap Classiques, a selection of France’s best champagne houses and well-known Italian prosecco brands. This year there’ll be bubbly from the likes of L’Ormarins, Siwela Wines, Bon Courage, La Bri and Graham Beck as well as champagnes from Taittinger, Bollinger and Nicolas Feuillatte.
The festival will have an elegant, chic garden party feel with a blue and white dress theme (dress the part … there’s a fabulous Okapi handbag daily prize for the best dressed). Food from stalls and stations will satisfy festival-goers’ hunger pangs and live music by Veronique Lalouette will add to the festive atmosphere.
It’s on Saturday and Sunday April 9 and 10, from 11am to 4pm, at the Inanda Polo Club in Sandton. Tickets are R395, which includes a souvenir bubbly glass and 10 tasting coupons. Not enough? You’ll be able to buy more bubbly at the event.
All guests must be vaccinated; bookings via webtickets.co.za
