One of South Africa’s most prestigious platforms for tourism, culture, and innovation now has a new name on its lips: Botebo Wines.
We’re proud to announce that Botebo Wines was officially showcased at the 2025 Durban Travel Indaba, one of Africa’s largest and most influential travel and lifestyle expos. This milestone marks more than just another event—it’s a defining moment for our farm, our team, and the growing legacy of wine from the Free State.
Sipping into the Spotlight
Hosted annually in Durban, the Travel Indaba is renowned for spotlighting the best of African hospitality—from luxury lodges and eco-tourism pioneers to art, design, and yes—fine wine.
For Botebo Wines, this was more than an invitation. It was a statement:
🍷 The Free State is on the map—and so are we.
Our presence celebrated not only the bold beauty of our wines but the innovation and passion that drives our farm. From crisp whites to complex reds, guests were treated to elegant tastings, exclusive pairings, and behind-the-scenes stories that brought each bottle to life.
What We Showcased
At our stand, visitors explored:
- Golden Grace Chenin Blanc – Tropical, luminous, and perfect for the South African sun.
- Velvet Midnight Merlot – Rich and sultry, an instant favourite among red wine lovers.
- Sunset Blush Rosé – Delicate, dry, and unforgettable—like golden hour in a glass.
- Power & Poetry Cabernet Sauvignon – Bold, structured, and deeply expressive.
Each wine poured was a celebration of South African terroir, crafted on our family-owned estate in Jacobsdal, Free State.
More Than a Wine—A Story Worth Tasting
Botebo’s inclusion at the Indaba was not only about grapes—it was about people, place, and purpose. Attendees connected with our vision: creating world-class wines that honour our land, celebrate local excellence, and elevate the art of wine-making in new regions.
We stood proudly alongside tourism giants, yet we brought something refreshingly intimate—authenticity, warmth, and a glass raised to progress.
What’s Next for Botebo?
If the Travel Indaba taught us anything, it’s that the world is ready for a new kind of South African wine story—and Botebo is here to tell it.
We’re expanding our reach, building new retail and hospitality partnerships, and inviting more wine lovers to discover what makes our bottles so unforgettable.
Whether you met us in Durban or are just now discovering us—welcome to Botebo Wines. A journey worth tasting, a legacy just beginning.
