What to expect
You'll be collected and driven to the first winery, where staff walk you through their range with tasting notes and background on how the estate came to be. After sampling, you'll sit down to lunch. Then it's on to the second property for more wines, scenery, and conversation. Both venues prioritise comfort—you're seated indoors or sheltered areas rather than standing around. The guides speak to the distinctive qualities of each winery's approach. By the end you'll have a sense of the region's wine character and a full belly.
