The highly anticipated Proudly SA Local Wine Expo is back, and promises an unforgettable experience for all wine lovers.

The expo is set to take place from Thursday, 13 July to Saturday, 15 July 2023 at the Prison Break Market in Lonehill, Johannesburg.

According to Proudly South African, it will bring together about 30 South African wine brands under one roof, making it a must-attend event for those seeking to savour the rich diversity of South African wines.

With a wide range of varietals and styles on display, attendees can expect to discover new favourites and engage with winemakers and industry experts.

South Africa’s wine industry has been soaring to new heights, receiving accolades and commendations from wine critics around the world.

According to recent ratings, local wines have consistently impressed with exceptional quality, earning a well-deserved spot on the global stage.

“In fact, a recent study has revealed that South Africa is the eighth biggest wine producer in the world. The Local Wine Expo provides the perfect opportunity to taste and experience the excellence first-hand,” said Proudly SA.

By supporting local wine brands, locals not only expand their palate but also contribute to the growth and prosperity of South Africa’s economy.

The wine industry plays a vital role in job creation, tourism, and sustainability initiatives.

The event allows wine lovers to actively participate in this positive impact while indulging in the finest wines that South Africa has to offer.

“Mark your calendars and join us for an unforgettable wine-tasting experience. Whether you’re a seasoned wine expert or just beginning your journey into the world of oenology, the Local Wine Expo caters to all levels of wine appreciation.”

Admission is free, providing a unique opportunity to explore, taste, and purchase exceptional wines directly from the producers.

The Local Wine Expo schedule is as follows:

  •  Thursday, 13 July: 15:00 – 21:00
  •  Friday, 14 July: 15:00 – 21:00
  •  Saturday, 15 July: 12:00 – 21:00

In addition to the wine tastings, a session for retail and bulk buyers will be hosted on the first day to outline the wine industry value chain and identify ways in which the industry can be elevated to new heights.

Through this session, Proudly SA hopes to increase the number of local wine brands on retailers’ shelves, encouraging retail buyers to help create jobs.
