The Mercury Wine Week 2011
 |
Now in its 33rd year, wine-lovers will be given the opportunity of tasting the widest variety of wines available, all under one roof, at the annual Mercury Wine Week. Over 140 of the country's top wine estates are expected to book their places at ‘South Africa’s Premier Wine Event’ to showcase their popular ranges as well as some previously untried wines. The signature event will take place at SUNCOAST for the 7th successive year. Guests are offered the opportunity of tasting and enjoying the products of the large wine distributors and retailers, alongside the smaller wine farms and estates .The event also offers wine buyers and sellers the chance to mingle with the public and wine connoisseurs in a relaxed, cordial setting.
Last year 4895 footfall was attracted over the 2 public nights. This year, we expect to draw 6000 people, over the 3 nights, as the event will now run Wednesday-Friday, as opposed to last years’ Tuesday-Thursday; to accommodate a wider KZN market that could now spend the weekend in Durban and enjoy Friday night’s event.
