Wine 'flowing in the Vaal' | News Article

Vanderbijlpark - Despite the outlook for the country’s economy and political landscape seeming quite bleak, or perhaps because of it, the wine industry seems to be thriving by all accounts!

The popular annual Vaal River Meander Wine Route, which will be taking place from July 11 to August 16, has entered its 12th year and shows no signs of losing steam.
 
This unique inland Wine Route has grown in popularity over the years to where it can now claim to be the best supported Wine Route in Gauteng, entertaining thousands of wine lovers over the dry winter months.
 
According to the chairperson of the Emfuleni Tourism association, Rosemary Anderson, the route was established to promote tourism in the Vaal, particularly during the slower winter period.
