Taste the Wines of the Southern Hemisphere
The South World Wine Society is non-profit club that is dedicated to creating a greater understanding and appreciation of the wines from Argentina, Australia, Chile, New Zealand and South Africa.

We welcome all wine enthusiasts - novices and experts alike. The social atmosphere of our events is friendly and informal. The tasting events are designed to be informative, encouraging an open exchange about wines.


Unique Wines and Tasting Events
Each of the South World countries offers a different combination of climate, terroir, viticulture and varietals. The varying environments allow for the unique characteristics of these wines. Our exclusive sources will allow us to access wines that may not be available in BC, providing our members the opportunity to expand their tasting experience with new wines.

We host a variety of events that include tastings of different varietals, regions, wineries or vintages, an informal Summer Solstice tasting, and a culinary Winter Dinner. We trust you will enjoy the friendly atmosphere and develop your taste for wine.
