"Earn Your Vino has been a long time in the making and I'm thrilled that we can now offer an exciting new way for travellers to experience Western Australia's wine regions. It services those who have a taste for the finer things in life, yet are hungry for a little adventure, a little discovery, are curious and open minded. It is aimed at those who want to earn their drop of favourite wine and learn along the way.
It is a natural extension of what both Cassandra and I believe in – to travel slower, to engage deeper, to be more present, to share experiences with others, to have time to reflect and enjoy, to support genuine producers, and to reach for the soul of a place through people you meet.
To imagine, design and curate our itineraries, we have looked at our Western Australian wine-lovers paradise and opted to offer an experience in each region from an intimate, personable point of view.
I can't wait to meet you and help treat you to a lifetime connection to a place, it's people and a period of time like never before."Cheers,
Stepan
