We’re thrilled to share our incredible experience at the Franschhoek Cap Classique and Champagne Festival, held on November 30th and December 1st, 2024, at the picturesque Huguenot Monument in Franschhoek . This prestigious event, a highlight in South Africa’s wine calendar, provided the perfect backdrop for Khulu Fine Wine to showcase our exceptional Izigidi – 100% Chardonnay, Non-vintage, Blanc de Blanc Cap Classique .
The festival’s theme, “Elegantly Floral,” beautifully captured the vibrant essence of the season and the surrounding beauty of the renowned Cape Floral Kingdom . With over 4,500 attendees across the two-day event, the atmosphere was electric, embodying an elegant garden-party style that perfectly complemented our refined offerings .
As exhibitors, we were delighted by the enthusiastic response to our Izigidi Cap Classique. Visitors flocked to our stand, eager to taste and purchase our exquisite sparkling wine . It was particularly heartwarming to hear from returning customers who sought us out, having fallen in love with Khulu Fine Wines at previous events .
This festival aligns seamlessly with our brand values, celebrating diversity within the industry, showcasing artisanal quality, and providing a platform for bold and unique expressions . It offered us a valuable opportunity to connect with fellow wine enthusiasts, elevate the narrative of proudly South African Cap Classiques, and further establish Khulu Fine Wine as a symbol of premium quality and refinement .
The event reaffirmed the importance of consistency in our brand presence. We learned that our continued participation in such prestigious events builds trust and recognition among wine lovers . To show our appreciation, we offered our Cap Classique at a special event price of R300 per bottle .
As we reflect on this successful event, we’re grateful for the connections made, the positive feedback received, and the opportunity to contribute to the growth of South Africa’s sparkling wine industry. The Franschhoek Cap Classique & Champagne Festival 2024 was the perfect finale to our year, ending it on a high note and reinforcing Khulu Fine Wine’s position as a enduring presence in the premium wine market .
We look forward to raising our glasses with you at future events, continuing to share our passion for exceptional wines that honor tradition while embracing innovation.
