I have a guest in my group who will not be tasting, how do I book a reservation? ⮛⮛
Guests who are not tasting wine (Designated drivers and others) are not required to pay the tasting fee as they will not be served any wine. When booking, indicate the number of guests who will be tasting. In the special requests section, specify that there is an additional non-taster in your group.
It’s important to note that our maximum group size for standard tastings is 6 guests, regardless of whether the guests are drinking or not. This ensures we can accommodate your party comfortably.
