Ever wondered, while sipping wine with friends, what had to happen to get that living beverage into your glass? Join Harry’s talk as he demystifies South African wine through the fascinating stories, surprising characters and little-known facts that have shaped one of the world's most remarkable wine industries.Harry is a Cape Wine Master and former head of the Cape Wine Academy. Along the way he's learnt that wine is never just fermented grape juice - it's history, politics, environment, art and skill, all sitting in one glass. Through Harry's Big Wine Adventure, he's led more than 200 curated wine experiences for international guests and hosted countless private and corporate events. During the pandemic he started an incredible journey with Story Cellars, bringing people together online to meet winemakers when travel wasn't possible. The stories proved that a good tale travels, even when people can't.
The evening draws on all of it: a fun meander through the history of wine, from its earliest origins to today's economics and changing consumer. Along the way you'll meet the people, moments, numbers and stories that explain how South African wine became what it is today.
