Journey with us to the fine wine regions of the world, with this introduction to Champagne, Loire, Burgundy and Piedmont.
Book for the session which excites you most, or take part in multiple - with each of these workshops designed to be approachable and engaging for anyone wanting to dip their toes into the world of wine. As an add on, make a day out of your experience by booking a homestyle lunch prepared by Chef James Diack of Il Contadino, paired with a glass of wine from the GD cellar.
As a community of South African fine wine lovers, it's no surprise we will be lighting a fire in the evening. Feel free to come back or stay on and join us as we enjoy a glass of wine around the open flame (complimentary for Journey with Us members). If you'd like to bring along a bottle to share amongst friends - please do!
