DARWIN FESTIVAL: An Idiot's Guide To Wine: Volume 3 | Merrick Watts

The Festival-favourite wine tasting is back!

After two hugely successful Top End trips, you can guarantee this hotly-anticipated Volume 3 will be another must-see.

Comedian Merrick Watts (who, surprisingly, has genuine wine chops and, unsurprisingly, is an idiot) has been busy meticulously “researching” new wines for this latest show. It’s hard work, but someone’s got to do it.

For the uninitiated, An Idiot’s Guide to Wine is a wine tasting unlike any other. Each guest sips six wines, handpicked by Mez while he dishes out wine facts, food pairing suggestions and jokes about the French. Thousands of audience members have claimed to learned things along the way, but we assure you that is purely coincidental.

In Volume 3, expect unexplored varietals, fresh wine regions and new stories. Everything’s new… except the idiot.
