Winery Glamping

Overview

Crown Street staple The Winery has transformed its expansive wine garden into a cosy hideout for these winter months — then added in raclette stations and bottomless mulled wine for good measure. The venue's wintry oasis is running from July 14 through August 31 and we reckon you should book in a night out here right away.

Walk through the macramé archway to one of two private teepees, which fit up to 11 of your best mates. They're decked out with floor cushions, ottomans and Persian-style rugs — the ideal setting for sipping on endless pours of mulled wine or sangria (in red, white or rosé).

A two-hour bottomless booze deal in a private teepee is on offer for $79 per person, with the package also including your own private raclette station, plus additional honey-roasted camembert and a tiramisu-flavoured bombe alaska for dessert. Or opt for the $59 package, which, apart from all that raclette, includes a four-wine tasting paddle, onion and gruyere toastie and hot chocolate cannoli for all.

The aforementioned raclette station includes a heap of that hot gooey cheese, along with crudité skewers, cured meats and roasted mushrooms for dipping. If you don't want to sit in a teepee, you can can book the raclette station separately for $20 per person (minimum two people), and order all other food and booze items a la carte, while hanging out in the rest of the Winery courtyard.

The Winery Glamping packages can be booked Thursday–Friday, 5–7pm and 7.30–9.30pm; and Saturday–Sunday from noon–2pm, 2.30–4.30pm, 5–7pm and 7.30–9.30pm.
