Tour and tasting:
When tour starts one guide come and explain all about wine and its making process. She explained the 2 types of grapes and how the make wine from grapes. She took in different rooms where wine is storage.
She also explained about tank maturing, barrel maturing and finally bottling of wines. They import the barrel and one barrel cost is almost 1 lakh INR but life is short. After that they resell them as a showpiece worth 20-30k INR.
After tour it's time for tasting. For that we wait for 5 minutes and than that guide tell us how to hold a wine glass and how to taste it.
She offer 6 types of wine including all red, white and rose. I like 3 types of wine , surprisingly more than red i like white wine taste. They also kept barrels as a showpiece in the tasting room .
The ambiance at sula was nice and it all a magical experience.
