Fireside Yarra Valley 2022
This 16-day festival showcases the Yarra Valley's cosiest winter offerings — and yes, that means wine in abundance.
Overview
This month, the Yarra Valley rugs up to show off its finest winter offerings, for the return of region-wide food and wine festival Fireside. Running from Saturday, July 9–Sunday, July 24, the program is set to plate up a slew of events for all palates; from winemaker dinners and twilight markets, to fireside brunches and cosy overnight stays. And through it all, there'll be scores of opportunities to sample some of the area's finest vino.
Enjoy a cheese-matched tasting of new-release drops in the Giant Steps barrel room (July 10), join mates for brunch at Chandon pairing sparkling pours with chic eats (July 9, 10, 16, 17, 23 & 24), and visit Six Acres Wines for a chilled afternoon dedicated to vino and vinyl (July 16).
On July 16, Pope Joan's Bente Grysbaek hits Seville Estate for a four-course wine-matched dinner centred around fire and smoke, and on July 17, Healesville Sanctuary invites you for a drinks festival among the wildlife, featuring local beer and wine, live tunes and top-notch eats.
Throw in a truffle feast, Tokar Estate's Spanish fiesta, a traditional asado dinner at Oakridge, and a pop-up cellar door manned by some of the region's winemaking legends, and you've got yourself a smorgasbord of wintry wine-filled fun.
