This event has three aspects: the blessing of the harvest, the commemoration of the first wine from Cape grapes made in 1659 and honouring wine industry leaders. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Friday 11 November, media and wine industry stakeholders were invited to attend an early birthday celebration lunch held at Groot Constantia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CEO of Groot Constantia Estate, Jean Naud\u00e9, says, after 10 years of holding the event, having looked at it from various angles and seeing the various benefits it holds, a vision of how it could benefit the entire wine industry has crystallised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe now see the potential there is in the birthday of the South African wine industry. It\u2019s a concept that\u2019s now nearly 300 years old, more than 300 years old, but the industry has not tapped into the full potential of the birthday of the South African wine industry.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Naud\u00e9 says to best appreciate the potential it may hold, you need to compare it to another birthday that is celebrated across the globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cChristmas is a birthday. We too are sitting on a birthday. And if you look at what retailers have done with Christmas, then you understand the potential there is in the birthday of the South African wine industry. We all know the creativity retailers have around Christmas to sell products and we need them to apply that to the wine industry\u2019s birthday.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Describing their vision, Naud\u00e9 says it comprises a three-pronged approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe one is that the commemorative wine harvest event will just be a part of the total celebration of the South African wine industry. Currently, it\u2019s basically the only celebration and it should be just a part of the total celebration.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondly, he says, besides celebrating it on a much wider scale locally, the concept also needs to be marketed abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div contenteditable=\"false\" data-embed24=\"Blockquote\" data-pos=\"middle\" id=\"embed_0a76316d\">\n<div class=\"text\">\u201cAccording to the information at our disposal at this time, we are the only wine industry in the world that knows the exact date of our origin. For the time being, while other countries do not have that date yet, we\u2019ve got the benefit of uniqueness. So let\u2019s use it. Let\u2019s take it abroad, and let\u2019s run with it.\u201d<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, he says, instead of focussing on just one day in February, the entire month should be celebrated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere are a lot of significant wine-consuming dates in February. The most important one is Valentine\u2019s Day. Someone in Holland will drink a bottle of French wine on Valentine\u2019s Day; they should drink a bottle of South African wine.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Naud\u00e9 adds that they see Groot Constantia\u2019s role as that of being a catalyst.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are just there to tell people about this, but we don\u2019t have the manpower nor the money, nor the time to take this thing further. It\u2019s like passing a baton on to other people and saying, we\u2019ve seen this, run with it and go with it. It is for us, from the industry side; primary producers need to take it to their distributors and distributors need to take it to retailers. And that\u2019s where we are now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div contenteditable=\"false\" data-embed24=\"InfoBlock\" data-pos=\"middle\" id=\"embed_93ba6897\">\n<div class=\"heading\">To launch the event, Groot Constantia has made available a range of free promotional material, such as the SA Wine Birthday logo, press releases (English, Afrikaans, Xhosa), photos and post ideas for social media. They also shared the following advice on how individuals and businesses alike can help promote #HappyBirthdaySAWine: <\/div>\n<div class=\"text\">\n<ul>\n<li>Add 2 February next year to your events
