Riesling & Seafood Sunday, 24 September
One of our favorite days because it gives everyone a chance to gain a greater, or new, appreciation for the wonderful combination that is Riesling and Seafood. We feel Riesling rarely gets the love and attention it deserves, so this is our way of giving Riesling a day in the sun (or rain).
This year we will be featuring four aged Rieslings from our Estate. You start with the youngest wine and work your way through the years and taste the differences. It is a great way to experience how Rieslings age.
Seafood galore this year! We are offer oysters natural and Kilpatrick, as well as smoked salmon, and Battered Flathead Tails. Like them all? Then order the Seafood Platter that has some of everything on it along with salad and our special GPW sauce.
As we have to pre-order the oysters we ask that you phone us with a booking and let us know if you will be wanting oysters and how many. That would help us a lot and ensure that we have plenty of oysters to go around and so no one misses out! (03) 5428 2228.

Pizza of the Month, and we need your suggestions
Finally! We are introducing some additions to the food we serve here at the winery. I think I hear a big sigh of relief out there and a few cheers too! First, a Pizza of the Month. As it implies, this will be a changing pizza. We have some ideas and we’ve been pinching pizza menus from various places but if you have a really, really good, favourite pizza, let us know. There are forms on our tables and on the information table at the entrance for ideas. You can also just email us your ideas too. Who knows what glory you will get if your suggested pizza is once chosen for the ‘Pizza of the Month’? Fame and fortune no doubt!
Our Facebook Page - a fountain of information!
Our Facebook Page has really come to life now that Caroline has taken custody of it! We hope you are following it as our newsletters are few and far between and there are always updates on what is happening at the winery on Facebook. If not, click here to view the page and click on ‘Follow’. We’re also on Instagram with some great photos we’ve taken and some that our guests have taken and shared with us. How about you taking a photo, share it with us and it might get on the Instagram page. We love to share your photographic memories.
'The Traveller' Wine Glass
EVERY GIRL SHOULD HAVE ONE!
This acrylic wine glass is perfect and has so many benefits! Such as:
- Keeps your wine chilled, or at pouring temperature (although you cannot open it to put wine in the outside bit - it would be a good feature though).
- Has a lid like a coffee cup for drinking - avoid those messy wine spills
- Great for outdoors! Stops flys and wasps from sharing your wine.
- Perfect for boats.
- Almost unbreakable acrylic. I don't put mine in the dishwasher as some dishwashers put 'cracks' in the acrylic.
You can now order online. Only $19.95 each and very light to post to you. Postage is extra and we will call you for approval to charge your freight costs. OR, pick them up in cellar door. We have sourced these from the USA and have limited stock, so if you want one or two or three as gifts, or for yourself, get in quick! Call us to hold some for you on 5428 2228.
They come in this purple colour or black. Specify which colour on the checkout instructions (delivery instructions) on the mail order form, or just give us a call.
