Bagpipes and wine

Over two Thursday evenings split over two weeks, you will get to “meet” winemaker Bruce Jack and taste some of his wonderful wines. The charismatic South African winemaker will be showcasing the following wines over the two nights:

Bruce Jack Lifestyle Chenin Blanc
Bruce Jack Lifestyle Daily Brew Pinotage
Bruce Jack Reserve Sauvignon Blanc
Bruce Jack Reserve Chardonnay
Bruce Jack Drift Estate Over the Moon Unfettered Red Blend
Bruce Jack Moveable Feast Red Blend

Bruce produces wine crafted with love and his passion for life even comes through in his winemaking, did you know that Bruce employs a Pipe Major to play the bagpipes to his wine barrels?! Since the music travels through the molecules in the wine it helps develop them in quite a unique way. We can’t wait to find out more.

The Tastings

Tickets for this 2-week experience are £88 which includes the 6 wines, 2 great tastings and a virtual trip to South Africa.

How do the Tastings Work?

The tastings will start each evening at 7 pm and will last about an hour. You’ll be more than welcome to ask any questions and feedback is encouraged.

The aim is that it’s a relaxed, fun, informal and informative evening. Join using the Zoom app so if you don’t already have it, please download it. Only one order per household is required – providing of course you’re happy to share the wines and the computer screen!
