Get your tickets to Swirl, Sniff, Spit's Coonawarra Classics tasting here.
Think Coonawarra, and thoughts of sumptuous reds spring to mind – from the rich rust-coloured Terra Rossa soil for which it’s internationally recognised, to the prized red wines that have made it famous. There are the ruddy cheeks of those who tend the vines; the crimson sunsets that sweep across a vast horizon; and of course, there’s the fiery passion in the veins of our vignerons and winemakers.
To that we've added some bubbles to get the evening going, a few white wines and matched it all to traditional greek food from Kafe Meze.

Viet N Vino - Tuesday 10th May 2016
Tickets are now available (here) for Swirl, Sniff, Spit's next event - an evening of Vietnamese food with an attempt to match to this cuisine that is variously: aromatic, spicy, saucy.
We're not Sommeliers - but we enjoy good food and wine and part of the fun is looking to share the experience of trying to match wines to such cuisine.
So Join us for a night of delightful Vietnamese and delicious Vino.
As always, we will discuss the food and wine matches, and give you a bit of insight into the styles on pour.
Looking forward to a great night of food, booze and cheer.
