Back to | 2023 Beaujolais Nouveau Cape Town

The French South African Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FSACCI) extends its heartfelt gratitude to the 150+ guests who graced this year's Beaujolais Nouveau event in Cape Town on Friday.

Special thanks to Africa Global Logistics for their invaluable contributions and to our gold sponsor, TotalEnergies, whose support ensured the seamless execution of the celebration, adding significant value to the overall experience for attendees.

This event marked the exciting release of Beaujolais Nouveau, a traditional French gem that has become a global sensation. This red wine, crafted from Gamay grapes in the Beaujolais region of France, brought together members of the business community, wine enthusiasts, and cultural connoisseurs for an unforgettable evening.

Asemahle Tsholoba, our lead performer, captivated the audience with her powerful and unique voice, adding a memorable musical dimension to the event.

Enthusiastic support from our members, who turned out in great numbers, was instrumental in making this Beaujolais Nouveau event in Cape Town a success. Gratitude extends to our sponsors — Kasada Capital Management, The Cape Town French School, Stratogo, French South African Chamber of Commerce and Industry, OhLala, and Zip Zap Circus — for their invaluable support.

Funds collected from the extra sales of raffle tickets will be directed towards a meaningful cause: supporting The French School of Cape Town in raising funds for 30 learners to embark on a cultural, heritage, and civic dimensions school trip to Madrid and Paris.
