The Revolt: Swartland Series

Being a most fortunate young lady, I was afforded the opportunity to attend a rather special event over a recent weekend. Having only recently learned the wonders of wine, this particular event has stood out as a rather important one from the start. This is not only because of the rumours of marvellous international & vintage wine tastings and the gathering of several wine-minded folk in one small area; but mostly because of the promise of things getting massively out of hand with the rogues of the wine industry on their home ground. This, my dears, is the appeal of The Revolution – The Swartland Revolution. Now in it’s 5th year, the festival aims to educate, to inspire, to challenge and to intoxicate a limited number of wine-enthusiasts in the Riebeek Valley on an annual basis. To follow are my opinions on wines better travelled and far older than myself. May the Revolt begin!
