WineX 2010, you going?

(This will not be an essay. I promise)

So, it is that time of year again when the CTICC hosts its biggest piss-up of the year. WineX. I was wondering if any of you are going?

I’ll be giving it a miss this year. My Thursday and Friday evenings are begging me not to include being in  packed (although less so each year) hall, fighting the hoi polloi for sips of wine. Especially as the crowds have very dubious taste, last year they voted a coffee pinotage as wine of the show. Meh.



I heard Michael Fridjhon chatting about WineX on Cape Talk. He said that there are less farms this year so as to make the event more intimate, and that it would only run for two nights so the wine-makers themselves can be present. My bullshit radar started bleeping frenetically when I heard this.
