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.
• Please don’t wear perfume
or aftershave when attending the classes
– it affects everyone’s ability
to smell the wine.
