Welcome to the first in a series of Saffa Sessions, hosted by our very own Cape Crusader, John Khayser. Many regular of Vino Towers will know that we have a bit of a bias towards the wines of the Western Cape. The value is often stonkingly good, and they produce outstanding modern, new wave wines, as well as some true classics modelled on old world icons. On top of that, we have a bonafide Saffa amongst our team of wine weirdos with an undying spirit towards the wines of his motherland, so who better to take you on a vinous journey through the Cape of Good Hope, than our very own John Khayser.

In our first instalment of this series, John will take us on a journey of discovery, visiting some of his favourite wines and producers from across the Cape. This will set the scene for tastings to come, and will provide a wide-eyed view of some of the very best bottles on our shelves. We'll try to tick off a few classics, whilst also looking to some of the new-wave producers, defying what many thought possible of the New World's most traditional producing country. Strap in.

This will be fun and educational. Suitable for all levels of drinking experience. There will be a few nibbles to enjoy along side the wines - we promise a good time and great wine.

Please confirm when booking if you have any allergies or dietary requirements. We'll do our best to accommodate. 

No physical ticket required, just bring a copy of your order confirmation (on a phone is fine). 

Please note that we kindly ask attendees not to wear strong aftershave or perfume for the event. This sounds like a silly request, but we try and keep our tasting room as a controlled environment so that only the wine fumes invade our nostrils.

Tickets are non-refundable.

We adore our wonky old building. All we regret is that the staircase to our first floor tasting room isn't overly forgiving and as such rules us out from being accessible. So sorry for the inconvenience it may cause.
