Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. If you still haven’t found that perfect gift, then we can offer you something really different. We’re hosting our 2nd annual Wine, Craft Beer & Artisan Cheese Tasting at the Diefenbunker. It’s a date night like no other! Book your tickets & join us for a fun evening exploring the fascinating Cold War Museum while sipping & sampling hard-to-find Ontario wines, craft beers & artisan cheeses.
Tour & Taste
Take it all in! A complementary guided tour of the Diefenbunker will be offered before OR after the tasting event.
Then at 7pm the corks will start popping, the Bunker will be filled with music & Savvy Company’s Cheese Sommelier will serve a variety of Canadian artisan cheeses. As you mix & mingle in the Bunker’s Cafeteria, our Savvy Sommeliers will lead you through a ‘TOP SECRET’ blind tasting where the bottles of sparkling, white & red wines along with craft beers will be disguised. There’ll be fun guessing the style of wine & craft beer before we unveil the truth.
What’s a blind tasting?
Each bottle – wine & craft beer – will be wrapped in foil so that you can’t see the label. Sip & sample then make your best guess to what it might be. A Chardonnay? An IPA? Or possibly a Pinot Noir? At the end of the evening our Savvy Sommeliers will peel back the foil & uncover the truth of each bottle. Ooohs, ahhs and “I told you so” are guaranteed to be heard.
Featuring amazing wines & craft beers from…
Château des Charmes
Lighthall Vineyards
Fielding Estate Winery
Kichesippi Brewery
Calabogie Brewing Co.
