Wil'de'Wyn History

Several hand-picked wine farms are invited to showcase and sell their wines right here in the heart of North West, at Bona Bona Game Lodge. The firstWil’de’Wyn festival was hosted on March 17, 2018 and it has since become one of the most anticipated events on the social calendar, attracting guests not only from North West but also from Gauteng and the Free State.

Rulé Ernst: Festival Director & Wine curator

Rule Ernst has a passion for good wines and the good memories she has built over years exploring several wine lands in South Africa. Coupled with her warm personality and sense for business opportunities Rule wanted to share these experiences with the people in North West.  What was a dream turned into a fully fletched wine tasting annual event “Wil’de’Wyn.”

Join us for our next festival – and experience the best of the winelands at Bona Bona Game Lodge!
