We really are blessed with some of the most beautiful wineries, wine regions and wines here in South Australia. So much so that our number plates could almost read – ‘SA The Wine State’. Actually, that has a nice ring to it… But what if we told you that there are other amazing wine regions around the world? We know, SA is amazing, but sometimes it can be nice to get out there and experience something new, different and exciting.
Introducing a wine tour with a difference. Imagine this: The destination, Spain. The reason, wine (of course). The tour guide, Sidewood Estate and Catlin Wines very own Winemaker, Darryl Catlin.
Have we got your attention? We should. This spectacular opportunity will see twelve people have the experience of a lifetime. The tour head overseas next year and with Darryl’s contacts in Spain, the group will be taken on an exclusive behind the scenes tours of wineries with tastings.
Learn from the experts themselves as they teach you about wine and the region. Did we mention that there would be visits to Michelin-star restaurants and a guide in Spanish food, wine and art?
So how did this all come about? Well we asked the man himself, Darryl and he said:
“I visited Spain last year and instantly fell in love with the people and the place. The Spanish wine industry is one of the most diverse and fascinating, with its amazing grape varieties well suited to a climate similar to ours, its incredible architecture and some incredible wines that command attention on the world stage. Put this with art, incredible food, the people, service, sights, parks and accommodation.”
This ten day wine, food and art extravaganza will include stays in 4-5 star accommodation (lush) including the famous Marque de Riscal Hotel.
If we were going on this trip, that Spanish tapas and wine wouldn’t know what had hit it… We would be all over that. Stretchy pants would definitely be required for this wine tour with a difference…
