Not only will you get to enjoy the flavours, but Julie will also guide you through understanding the different styles and how to truly appreciate what’s in your glass. Learning about the wines as you taste them makes the experience even more enjoyable, whether you're a wine lover or just looking for something new to try. Don’t miss the chance to expand your wine knowledge while having a great time!
