Your Private, Demystified Wine Journey

This isn't just about sipping wine; it's about learning and laughing together. Forget intimidating jargon and complicated rituals – we're bringing the fun, education, and deliciousness directly to you. This wine experience guides you through the basics of wine appreciation, teaching you how to properly taste, identify aromas, and understand food pairings. You'll gain confidence in your wine choices and deepen your appreciation for every glass.

What to Expect: Your Seamless Tasting Journey

We've got the essentials covered for a delightful wine tasting experience:

  • Curated Wine Selection: We provide six diverse wines, carefully selected to offer a broad and exciting tasting journey. Our selection may include organic or award-winning wines.
  • Wine Essentials: We bring appropriate wine glasses for the tasting , along with spittoons for those who prefer not to consume all the wine.
  • Expert Guidance: Detailed tasting notes will be provided to guide you and your guests through each wine.
  • Cheese Platter: A thoughtfully curated selection of cheeses will be provided to perfectly complement the wines.
