European Summer

Overview

Summertime at Crown Street staple The Winery is all about picnics in the venue's lush garden, and every Aussie knows that a picnic isn't complete without a little (or a lot of) bubbly. Happy to oblige, The Winery has brought back its bottomless prosecco fountain, on offer Thursday–Sunday until January 11.

This time, though, the antique-looking stone fountain isn't just pouring endless prosecco from its mouth — it's also serving up Aperol spritzes. For $39 a head, you're able to  grab a glass and pour-your-own bubbly and spritzes for a full two hours from that tap.

While no food is included in the deal, you can order something appropriately summery and European from the new antipasti menu. Choose from organic haloumi with truffle honey ($15), chicken liver parfait with eggplant relish ($14), spicy 'nduja ($8) and gooey stracciatella ($12). Larger dishes — such as smoked lamb meatballs ($21), mushroom tortillas ($15) and prawn lettuce cups ($21) — are on offer, too.

If you're yet to organise a get together, this could very well be the setting for this year's Friendsmas.

The bottomless prosecco and aperol spritz package is available from Thursday–Friday 5–10pm and Saturday and Sunday 12–10pm.
