CELEBRATING SMALL INDEPENDENT WINERIES
The first Woodstock Wine Festival brings around 30 independent and small wine producers to the heart of Cape Town's creative district. It's a day designed for the curious and intentional drinker to connect with the wine makers and discover uniquely crafted wines.
14:00 - 17:00
10:00 - 13:00
The walk-around tasting runs across two sessions, ticketed separately. Small independent producers have limited stock to pour, so splitting the day is a practical step to keep the space uncongested and ensure every guest gets access to all the wines.
Bottle Bar, Beer Garden & Food Stalls continues throughout the day, and will remain open after 17:00 till late.
* Late bird prices came into effect on 1 November.
hosted at
66 Albert Road - Woodstock - Cape Town
Every producer listed was chosen with intent, not just a sign-up. All of them are independent, small-batch winemakers, making wine on their own terms and pouring it themselves.

The day is designed with purpose... two sessions mean room to move and time to meet the makers, without the queues. The vibe is relaxed and social, all about great wines in good company.
