Tuck into muffins and coffee and get energised for the day. A tractor will transport you to the vineyards where the cellar master will share some grape picking tricks of the trade with you. You’ll be rewarded with wine tastings and a cellar tour before the real fun begins. You’ll get hands-on in the grape stomping activity where you’re sure to make friends and create memories.

Celebrate your hard work by feasting on a bountiful harvest buffet lunch. Live music will enhance the festive atmosphere and it promises to be an unforgettable day.
