WTWS World Tour: South Africa

Saturday July 11th 6pm - 9:30pm

A very special limited series:
The Welcome To Wine School World Tour!

Stop No. 5
South Africa, a guided tasting built around one of the most compelling and rapidly evolving wine countries in the world, where old vines, dramatic landscapes, and a new generation of winemakers are redefining what’s possible. The legacy here runs deep, but the modern story is sharper, fresher, and far more exciting than most people realize.

This is a daytime experience that’s structured, fun, and designed to make wine feel simple without dumbing it down.

You’ll taste five wines total, including a welcome sparkling that we’ll simply enjoy without the full certified grid, followed by a focused white flight that explores the tension, salinity, and texture that define South Africa’s best coastal wines, and a red flight that highlights the balance between power and restraint, shaped by site, climate, and thoughtful winemaking.

This tasting is built around a more focused lineup, giving us the opportunity to spend more time with each wine and explore the depth, detail, and character that define top South African producers, from historic estates to the new wave pushing the country forward.

Lite bites provided by RIS Catering. I chose RIS Catering, led by Chef Ris Lacoste, because WTWS is curated start to finish, always the highest standards, down to the last detail.
