As you taste a variety of wines at different stages of development, you'll gain insights into the nuances and complexities of barrel aging and its impact on the final product.
The Cellarmasters Tasting is designed to be engaging and interactive, lasting between 45 and 55 minutes including time for questions and discussion. After the session, you're invited to visit our tasting bar to sample any finished wines and purchase your favourite bottles.
When: Available during regular tasting room hours, every day except Saturday.
Duration: 1 hour with our winemaker.
Price: $49.99 per person.
