What You Should Bring
- be well dressed and in comfortable shoes. For women, it is especially beneficial if you wear low heel shoes to be certain that the comfort you need is met.
- when in an open green space or on a patio, you are likely to spend a significant amount of time under the sun, so don’t forget to bring a moisturiser, a hat, and sunscreen.
- eat a little snack during the tour and drink water between wine tasting to stay hydrated.
- most importantly bring out your curiosity, i.e. don’t just adhere to the wines you already know. Since you’re at a winery, enjoy some new, exotic flavors and varietals.
COVID SAFE
- Please let us know if you feel unwell.
