Overview
The minds behind Barossa Grape & Wine Association and vinous event organisers Revel have another specialised wine exploration to add to your calendar, this time devoted to the famed South Australian wine region of the Barossa Valley.
On Saturday, July 20, Barossa. Be Consumed returns to North Melbourne's Meat Market this winter, following the event's Sydney stop on July 13.
Expect a one-day celebration of the Barossa's finest, showcasing over 220 wines from more than 45 of the region's wineries. The lineup features Cirillo Estate, Peter Lehmann and First Drop Wines, alongside award-winners like Yelland and Papps, home to 2018 Young Gun of Wine finalist Michael Papps, and Turkey Flat Vineyards, winner of the 2017 Jimmy Watson Trophy.
You'll have the chance to meet producers while you sample their best creations, and then have bottles of your favourite wines shipped straight to your door. Seppeltsfield Road Distillers rounds out the liquid offerings with its small-batch gin, too.
There'll be live music playing as you sample various drops and wander through the fair. Plus, regional food and produce will also be available to taste (and line your stomach).
Meanwhile, four Meet the Maker sessions will run for those wanting to sink their teeth in deeper and will be hosted by leading wine personalities Samantha Payne and Clare Burder. Ranging from a sommelier's view on dining with Barossa vino to an in-depth look at Barossa grenache, these sessions are available for an additional cost ($35–50).
