Challenge yourself to identify the grape varieties, regions, learning how to truly appreciate their complexity.
Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned wine enthusiast, this event offers something for everyone—it’s about exploration, enjoyment, and a little bit of “wine wank” for those who love to get into the finer details.
