Vagabond Urban Winery

Tour & Tasting

Join the Vagabond crew for a walkabout tasting at our brand new urban winery, launching this December 2025. Glass in hand, you’ll explore our state-of-the-art space and taste four of our award-winning wines.

Relaxed, fun and a little bit nerdy, this is our most popular tasting for good reason. Whether you’re a regular, a wine lover or just curious, come see what all the fuss is about.

Wine Components Masterclass & Tasting

At our Urban Winery

Ever had a wine that just felt off? Too sweet, too soft, missing its backbone? Our Components Masterclass unpacks why, right in the heart of our urban winery – the ultimate place to really get to know your wine.

We’ll explore how acid, sugar, tannin and alcohol shape what’s in your glass, with six wines and a fully hands-on, sensory approach. It’s relaxed, interactive and a little bit geeky. No experience needed, just curiosity. All wines are vegan.
