THE OmmiBerg ‘Round the Paarl Rock’ wine festival which takes place on Saturday will involve 13 wine estates offering a day of unfiltered fun and flavour, and some rocking good music around Paarl.

Stomp grapes in time to aKING, Ysterkoei or the Jesse Jordan band, swim in a bath of red wine, take a helicopter flight, or kick back with a relaxing grape-skin foot massage.

Show off your knowledge, swing or palate in a wine quiz, golfing game or wine-blending competition.

Treasure hunts, pony rides and slip-’n-slides will entertain the children while the adults indulge in the fun.

And when you get hungry, join a breakfast masterclass, try some tapas, enjoy a BYO braai or down some oysters with bubbly while gazing contentedly on a sunset after an extraordinary day.

Tickets include unfiltered wine and Zwiebelkuchen (onion tart) tastings, and access to all live music.

Tickets are R60 (children under 18 free) from your first port of call at the festival or from Wine Desk at the V&A Waterfront 021-418-0108.
