Week 3- Back to our Roots

The region’s producers and winemakers will come together at an exclusive “meet the maker” tasting event showcasing 10-year-old Coonawarra cabernets alongside current releases – Friday 17th October.
Immerse yourself in food and wine over the weekend with a sparkling cabernet breakfast at Balnaves and a range of lunch and dinner options on offer, including two indludgent luncheons at Katnook Estate (St Bees in the Stables) + Ottelia (Spring Fling), along with the return of Majella’s everpopular Paella Fiesta.
The highly sought after combined wineries degustation dinner at Pipers of Penola is a highlight for those that seek an intimate culinary experience hosted by 5 Coonawarra winemakers. And for those seeking a dinner with a twist., Raidis Estate’s Murder in the Vines dinner is certain to intrigue!
