Wine “Dating” – Villa Danieli
Wine Dating, Villa Danieli |
You’ve heard of blind dating, computer dating and speed dating, but what about wine dating? Wine Dating, a new wine tasting event at Villa Danieli, is all about getting together with friends to try new wines. It’s the perfect (proverbial) one-night stand for those looking to learn more about wine and who knows – you might even find a new true love for your taste buds! RM220 nett per person, once a month.
Mediterranean tapas, a diverse selection of wines, a crowd that could compete with that of a rock concert in numbers (well maybe not quite), and excellent discounts on wines you might like to take home. RM90 is purchased a week in advance. Happens every two months.
