What to expect

Quentin keeps things grounded. You'll move through the working estate—vineyards, production areas—while he explains what matters: soil composition, harvest timing, fermentation choices. He covers the property's history and how geography shapes what grows here. The tasting isn't fussy; he teaches you how to actually taste, then you sample two wines of your choice. Each visit flexes to fit what guests want to dig into—whether that's agriculture, technique, or local heritage.
