🍷 Wine Tasting Experience — Frequently Asked Questions

You’ll taste 18 wines carefully selected to represent some of the best wines from Stellenbosch, South Africa.
Each session is guided by our WSET-certified team, who will walk you through:
• the story behind each wine
• what to look for as you taste
This is designed to be both enjoyable and educational, whether you’re new to wine or already exploring deeper.
-

Each guest will receive a complimentary bottle of wine, selected from our South African portfolio.
It’s something you can:

-
Is the session really only 45 minutes?
The 45-minute timing is structured for flow and comfort, not a strict cutoff.
We intentionally:
• limit each session to a maximum of 20 guests
• stagger entry times to avoid overcrowding
You’re welcome to stay longer after your session to continue enjoying the wines at a relaxed pace.

How is this different from the previous Wine Safari?
This experience is more focused and curated.
Our Wine Safari series is designed as a regional journey across South Africa, where each edition highlights a specific area — for example:

In contrast, this tasting brings together a tight selection of wines from Stellenbosch, allowing you to compare styles side by side in a single session.
