The Tasting Room by KapWeine
What a fantastic two days! With over 800 visitors, we couldn’t have wished for a better launch of The Tasting Room!
We celebrated the opening of our new wine shop on 28 and 29 June in Seefeld Zurich with hot weather, great wines to taste, a delicious barbecue braai, exciting guests and lots of good vibes. We successfully transported the fantastic atmosphere and the South African mood to Zurich.
The art vernissage by Patrizia Casagranda, presented by the Jedlitschka Gallery, was a special highlight. Patrizia Casagranda’s impressive works of art added a very special touch to the celebration and offered our guests a wonderful combination of wine and art.
We had the pleasure of welcoming over 800 visitors who enjoyed the variety of our wine selection and the relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Numerous opportunities to discover new wines and socialise with other wine lovers made the event particularly exciting. The combination of delicious food, excellent wines, inspiring art and interesting conversations made the opening party an unforgettable experience.

The Tasting Room & Jedlitschka Gallery
We were particularly pleased to welcome four wine producers: Vilafonté, Constantia Glen, Quoin Rock and Knorhoek. Their wines were very well received by customers and were tasted with great enthusiasm. The producers had the opportunity to present their wines in person and give the guests interesting insights into their production methods and the philosophy behind their wines. These direct encounters were greatly appreciated by our visitors and contributed significantly to the special atmosphere of the event.
The one or other celebrity guest has not missed out on the wine selection either. For example, you could meet the comedian Jonny Fischer.
South African feeling in Seefeld
For many visitors, it was the first time they had tasted a boerewors or zebra fillet, and the feedback was simply fantastic! The exotic flavours and the exceptional preparation of these South African specialities delighted our guests. Especially in combination with the perfectly matched wines, the culinary experience was a real treat for the palate.
Beautiful oasis: the sculpture garden of the Jedlitschka Gallery
This jewel with its unique sculpture exhibition is hidden in the backyard and transports you to another world. Our garden offers you a peaceful and inspiring retreat away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The impressive sculptures, skilfully integrated into the natural surroundings, invite you to linger and marvel.
With a glass of fine wine in hand, visitors were able to enjoy the harmonious combination of nature, art and wine to the full.
We would like to thank every visitor for coming and hope to welcome you again soon. Whether at an exclusive wine tasting, an informative masterclass or a stylish party – we look forward to seeing you again and creating unforgettable experiences together. See you soon!
