Night of the Stars is Vinimark's trade wine tasting event where they showcase the best of the best from their wine brand partners.
It's that time of the year: Events are getting more frequent and there are incredible wines to be tasted. The annual Vinimark Trade Tasting, where Vinimark's clients showcase their award-winning, premium fine wines, took place at the DHL Cape Town Stadium in Sea Point.
In a year that saw a record number of entries for the Tuesday, 17 October 2023

A grim wet miserable day was much improved by the opportunity to attend the Vinimark Trade Fair held recently at the DHL Stadium in Cape Town - a great venue with underground parking - quite a boon for the rainy day!
Vinimark also took the opportunity to launch their new look - with Connect, Collaborate and Celebrate as their new tagline.
Vinimark presented their Sparkling wines at the Hotel Sky to a number of local trade - with views to die for of Table Mountain and the harbour.
With some of the best bubbles in the house it was a sparkling evening all round and interesting to see the Non-alcoholic category growing - both from Darling Cellars & Robertson.
It has been a few years since Tim awarded his sought-after points and it was a busy place at Tuesday, 06 September 2022
Everything is back to normal it seems - and trade tastings and awards are the order of the day and it was very busy at the latest Vinimark Trade Tasting at the CTICC on Tuesday 30 August.
Being based in Somerset West, I thought of Darling as hundreds of kilometers and hours away but was surprised to find out that it was only a 98km trip.
Vinimark represents a number of South African wine brands, but also extended to a few top end bubblies, like Bollinger and others.
Good to see who is doing what as I attended their trade fair a few weeks back at the CTICC.
The Old Vines Project is going from strength to strength, and judging by the buzz at the tasting held on Tuesday 13 August at the Volkskombuis, there is no stopping this train.
This is what cellar master Pieter- Niel Rossouw has to say about the harvest:
“Our harvest started about a week later than last year. Some young Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc vines with low yields were harvested first.
OUR BUSH VINES GROW UP TOUGH, THAT'S WHAT GIVES THEM CHARACTER
This is our less is more philosophy - the less fruit we get from each hand-harvested vine the better the quality of our wines.
Not for sale to persons under the age of 18. Enjoy Responsibly.
