Important Advisory
The Cape Wine Academy promotes responsible use of alcohol.
• We recommend the use of spittoons supplied at the tastings, to reduce the excessive consumption of wine during the tastings.
• It is advisable to eat a meal before the start of each class.
• Please don’t wear perfume or aftershave when attending the classes – it affects everyone’s ability to smell the wine.
