WELCOMEEaster is an exciting time for us, and we love to invite you and your family to the winery to celebrate.

Easter is always full of promise, we celebrate nearing the end of vintage, hoping that the weather has been kind and a bountiful crop picked, and some beautiful wines are now in the making! This festival is about getting together with loved ones and taking some time out to unwind. That’s why we have a whole bunch of dedicated kids activities, so every family member can enjoy their time at our home in Milawa.

Sit back and relax with a glass of wine, listen to some live music and enjoy some local King Valley fare.

For the kids (or kids at heart) we have Easter Bunny, jumping castles, craft workshops and more.

There’s a range of food options including our Italian Kitchen, Burger bar, taco stand, and dedicated food for the little ones.

From our family to yours we wish you  a very happy Easter in Milawa.
