What is Wine in the Woods?
Wine in the Woods offers a unique and innovative way to experience the flavors of different wines amidst the forest and nature. It's a journey into the world of tastes and scents, where the stories of wines and the forest intertwine.
Guided by our knowledgeable hosts, we begin with a short walk, tuning into the forest and nature using our different senses. Following this, we step into our forest dining room, where a wine bar amidst the trees awaits us.
The approximately two-hour experience includes five carefully selected high-quality red wines that are connected to nature in various ways. For each Wine in the Woods tasting, we have chosen a special location within the forest.
"Nature is within the taste of every wine; the soil and all its minerals that nurture the vine are present. The flavor and aroma might transport me in my mind to a certain place in the woods: under spruce trees, on a sunny rock, or beneath the lush canopy of birch. It's fascinating, and I want to give others the chance to experience the same – and a bit more."
-Antti Huttunen, founder of the popular Retkipaikka community and creator of the TV series 'Metsien kätkemä' (Back to Nature).
