Audrey Wilkinson Vineyard: Picknick mit Verkostung der Wein-Meisterklasse

We had a wonderful time at the Picnic with Masterclass Wine Tasting experience! The day began with a charming tour that delved into the history of the vineyard, followed by a wine masterclass where we tasted an impressive selection of seven wines. Despite a little rain, we were able to enjoy the picnic on a cozy veranda that kept us dry. The picnic itself was delightful, with a thoughtful spread of cheese, olives, bread, and other tasty snacks. The staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, and the wines were super. It was a relaxing and enjoyable day, perfect for wine lovers and those looking for a unique experience. Highly recommended!

We had an absolutely super time at Audrey Wilkinson Vineyard! We booked the 3pm Picnic among the vines package for 2 that included a brief history of the area, a wine tasting followed by a picnic in the vines and it was brilliant. We were warmly welcomed by Brian with a glass a fizz, then Rachel introduced us to the Audrey Wilkinson Vineyard and conducted an excellent wine tasting, we then choose our favourite wine to accompany our picnic to enjoy overlooking the stunning vines. 100% recommend this experience.

The setting and views at the winery were stunning, but unfortunately, our experience with the premium wine tasting left much to be desired. Despite paying for what was advertised as premium experience, we couldn't help but feel envious of the energy and enjoyment we saw in the other tours in the cellar door. Our guide was inexperienced and lacked confidence, often mumbling during explanations and failing to respond when asked to repeat herself. She showed little enthusiasm and essentially left us to rely on the laminated tasting notes in front of us. I had been really looking forward to this tour as a fan of Audrey Wilkinson wines, but the lack of engagement and poor service made the entire experience feel disappointing. There was no discussion about the history of the winery, no opportunity to ask questions, and no personalised interaction. At the end of the session, we were left sitting without even being asked if we were interested in purchasing any bottles. We were handed the picnic with no information and told to go outside. The information provided by the staff was identical to what was already on the laminated page, making the entire tour feel redundant and impersonal. For a premium-priced service, it felt like we received minimal value. While the picnic that followed was lovely, the overall disappointment of the wine tasting left a negative impression, and we left sooner than expected. It was an underwhelming experience that didn’t live up to the reputation of the winery.
