Wine appreciation

What we do

We find out about the art and science of wine tasting and visit local vineyards, meeting the proprietors and learning about viticulture.

Come along to one of our large-scale tasting sessions, showcasing up to 20 or 30 wines; explore the medal winners; find a favourite rosé or a best budget or even taste foreign wines. We meet local artisans who share their passion for wine making and we also learn about naturally-made wines and sparkling wines.

Who can get involved

If you like wine and want to understand more about oenology, where else to start but in the heart of the largest vineyard in the world?
