The Art of the Pour: Poetry in Every Glass

On-ground

Aprisio is proud to present The Art of the Pour: Poetry in Every Glass - a rare, intimate, and sensorial journey that brings together three timeless human fascinations: wine, art, and poetry. Set within the newly inaugurated Wine Studio at Four Seasons Hotel, Bengaluru, this experience is designed to be elegant, immersive, and quietly luxurious - an evening where every pour, every stroke, and every verse converge into a single narrative.

With only 25 seats, this is one of our most exclusive curated experiences, created for those who appreciate depth, storytelling, and craftsmanship across disciplines.

Experience Overview

At the heart of the evening is a unique, three-part confluence:

1. Art

Led by Yumna Harisingh Jawa, Founding Trustee & President of ArtMantram Trust, the evening opens with a carefully chosen work of art. Yumna will guide the guests through the piece - its creation, intent, symbolism, and place in the modern artistic landscape. The art acts as the anchor for each chapter of the experience.

2. Wine

Following the art, the sommelier introduces a premium wine that mirror the theme evoked in the artwork. Guests will hear the story of the wine - its origin, the region’s heritage, the grape’s temperament, the terroir, and the tasting notes. The sommelier will draw a deliberate and thoughtful connection between the emotion of the art and the expression of the wine, creating a layered dialogue across mediums.

3. Poetry

The poet then steps in to complete the triad. Through a handpicked verse, the poet binds the artwork and the wine into one shared moment - bridging imagery, memory, and metaphor. Each poetic interlude is designed to unify the sensory and emotional cues of the art and the wine, transforming them into a single artistic expression.

This sequence - Art → Wine → Poetry - unfolds three times, featuring three artworks and three wines from different parts of the world. Guests will be served a glass of each wine, accompanied by artisanal cheese, elegant finger foods, and hand-curated pass-arounds.

The Grand Finale

To close the evening, the artist for the experience will create a live artwork in front of the guests. Guests will watch a new piece of art come alive in real time - an expression influenced by the ambience, the wines savoured and the themes explored during the evening.

This finale reinforces the collaborative essence of the experience: art influenced by place, moment, and emotion, unfolding in front of the audience.
