How do I become a Guru?Uncorked One is simply the best introduction to wine in Jozi and Pretoria. In just one day you will hear about and TASTE the key South African varietals (grapes used) and learn how not to feel like a tosser in a restaurant. You will also learn stuff about wine shopping, about coming face-to-face with a restaurant wine list and surviving and about storing wine in your linen cupboard. You'll leave the course having learnt a hellava lot about wine and the world of wine.
