Wine club

As much as I love blogging about Jack and Jill it is also important to talk about the other loves in my life.
Such as my interest in wine, Ive mentioned my wine club that I am a member in and we finished off the year at a Divine wine Bar called 'Wine Sense' in Melrose Arch, Johannesburg.

It is a concept restaurant that offers patrons the opportunity to taste a wine without buying an entire bottle or a full glass. Let me explain.


You get a credit card with an amount of credit that you will load onto the card eg R500.
There are cabinets with sections of white, red, rose wine and even a brandy and whiskey section.
You insert your credit card in the slot and select either taste, half glass or full glass, place your glass in the correct nozzle and BINGO! You get the right amount you selected. Very easy and very entertaining!



I tasted a couple of wines that I have never bought as they are quite pricey and took the opportunity to just have a taste.The one that I purchased a full glass is one that I know well and love sipping on, Diemersfontien Pinotage,  2011 simply delicious! The girls and I cant go without our cheese with our wine and selected an assortment of yummy cheeses to nibble on, whilst we sampled the wine..Lovely evening with great company and good wine :)


Heres to 2013 wine club...CHEERS
