About this tour
Spend 90 minutes tasting six Australian wines chosen to your preferences, from minimal-intervention styles to experimental techniques. You'll sit in a comfortable tasting lounge whilst a knowledgeable host walks you through each bottle's backstory—whether it's a sherry-style wine aged under flor yeast or a Georgian qvevri buried underground.
