Club Med South Africa Beach & Safari Resort on the Dolphin Coast<\/span><\/a><\/span> north of Durban. But it was about far more than a destination. It was about joie de vivre, hospitality and the special interplay of travel, cuisine and wine.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/kapweine.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/IMG-20260121-WA0016.jpg” title_text=”IMG-20260121-WA0016″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]South African flair in the heart of Zurich<\/h2>
The Tasting Room has long been a go-to address for South African wine in Zurich. On this evening, however, it became clear that it is far more than just a wine bar. Host Thomas H\u00f6lblinger and the Kapweine team<\/strong> welcomed guests in an atmospheric setting and shared insights into the story of Kapweine. For around 30 years, Kapweine has stood as the Home of South African Wine for a carefully curated selection and deep expertise in South African wines in Switzerland. What makes the space special is its atmosphere. Warm, open and personal. An environment that sparks conversations and inspires. Exactly the right stage to bring a destination like South Africa to life.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” min_height=”411.1px” custom_padding=”7px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”1px|||||” custom_padding=”16px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]Durban, safari and Premium All Inclusive<\/h3>
Club Med presented the new resort on South Africa\u2019s Dolphin Coast as a unique combination of beach, safari and Premium All Inclusive comfort. Its closeness to nature, access to exclusive game reserves and the relaxed coastal lifestyle immediately created a desire for more.<\/p>
Together with Emirates, it was also shown how comfortably a journey to South Africa via Dubai can be arranged. Generous connections, flexibility and service at the highest level complete the experience. The evening impressively demonstrated how dream holidays by the sea, safari adventures and stylish travel can be perfectly combined.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/kapweine.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-19-122707.png” title_text=”Screenshot 2026-02-19 122707″ align=”center” _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” custom_margin=”64px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/kapweine.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-19-122623.png” title_text=”Screenshot 2026-02-19 122623″ align=”center” _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” max_width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”1px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]
Wine, cuisine and genuine hospitality<\/h3>
As the evening came to a close, the focus shifted to what Kapweine stands for: South African wine in all its diversity. During a guided tasting of selected white, red and sparkling wines, guests gained insights into the style, origin and character of wines from the Cape.<\/p>
Accompanied by fine appetisers, an atmosphere emerged that was reminiscent of warm evenings in South Africa. Conversations deepened, ideas were exchanged and travel plans were made. The Tasting Room became a meeting place for inspiration and enjoyment.<\/p>
You could feel how wine connects people and how an occasion became a shared experience. Enjoyment was not only served that evening, but experienced together. It is exactly these moments that make South African hospitality so special.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”18px|auto||auto||” custom_padding=”0px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” min_height=”156px” custom_margin=”1px||0px|||” custom_padding=”0px||0px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]
An evening that left you wanting more<\/h3>
What remains is the feeling of an evening that brought together travel inspiration, cuisine and wine in a truly special way. For a few hours, Durban, safari and South Africa felt very close to Zurich. And that is exactly what has defined Kapweine for three decades: the ability to bring South Africa not only into the glass, but into the room.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]
More than an event, an experience space<\/h3>
The evening with Emirates and Club Med showed just how much atmosphere, inspiration and enjoyment are possible at The Tasting Room. When travel, wine and personal encounters come together in a harmonious setting, it becomes more than just an event. It becomes an experience that stays in the memory. That is exactly what the Tasting Room in Zurich\u2019s Seefeld stands for. Special moments, meaningful conversations and events with character. Whether for a corporate event, client ap\u00e9ro or private celebration in a smaller setting, the space offers the ideal framework to bring stories to life and leave a lasting impression on guests.<\/p>
Anyone who wants not only to drink South Africa, but to feel it, will find the perfect place for it at The Tasting Room. And perhaps the next event is already being planned.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/kapweine.ch\/en\/the-tasting-room-by-kapweine-wine-meets-art\/” button_text=”Your next event at The Tasting Room” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_divider color=”#000000″ _builder_version=”4.10.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
