11 Mar 2010 OmmiBerg ‘Round the Rock 2010’ hits the Paarl Wine Route on Saturday March 13th.  A unique opportunity to taste the first of the 2010 vintage across the route - unfiltered and straight from the tank in the middle of harvest time - the event pairs the wines with creative adaptations of the traditional onion tart; along with other unusual gourmet offerings.

OmmiBerg offers guests the unique opportunity to test their wine making talents starting with grape picking and tractor rides in the vineyards, to grape stomping and blending of their own wines.     

A wealth of children’s activities offers families an alternative to the Cape Argus event, which takes place the same weekend. 

Children can enjoy pony rides, slip-n-slides, tractor and trailer rides, the petting zoo, jumping castles and rides on an original goat wagon; while cooking demonstrations, art exhibitions, glass blowing and a vinotherapy foot message entertain moms. Traditional harvest activities, such as cellar tours, grape stomping and grape tastings will keep dads occupied; while the young at heart zip around the Paarl Rock in a Cessna or Helicopter; or chill to the tunes of Zinkplaat, Pieter Smith, CODA and other live bands.  Families can take a guided tour up the Taalmonument, have a picnic and stargaze into the night.

Tickets cost R50 for persons over 18 years, which include a stylish tasting glass and can be purchased on your first port of call on the day.  Join us on Facebook or Twitter and stay up to date with the latest festival news.  Visit www.ommiberg.co.za for a list of participating wineries and program.
