Everything You Need to Know About Tuning the Vine

When I first heard about Tuning the Vine I can’t say that I loved the name or understood the concept. But the name definitely stuck, even if it wasn’t for the right reasons! But their new representative contacted me and made it all make sense in 10 seconds – an inner city wine route. Well why didn’t they just say so!?!

Tuning the Vine is the Mother City’s first #InnerCityWineRoute that winds from Bree Street to Wale Street and down towards Adderley street, linking some of the best spots in town including Youngblood Art and Culture Gallery, Dorrance Wine Cellar, Signal Hill Winery, Publik Wine Bar, House of Machines, Bocca, Tjing Tjing, Secret Gin Bar, the Reserve Wine Vault at the Taj and Twankey Bar at Mint.
