Port Macdonnell Golf Club, located in the District Council of Grant, is thrilled to promote the upcoming Coonawarra After Dark Weekend. This annual event, hosted by Coonawarra Wineries, is a must-attend for golfers and enthusiasts alike. Taking place in April during the grape harvesting season, this event offers a unique and exciting opportunity to be a part of the vintage season.
One of the highlights of the Coonawarra After Dark Weekend is the DiGiorgio Family Wines annual Vintage Stomp. Ten teams will battle it out for a chance to win $1000, all of which will be donated to their chosen charity, community, or sporting group. It's a fantastic opportunity to come and support your favourite team or simply soak up the festive atmosphere. After the stomp, guests can extend their night by heading to Zema Estate Wines, where live music and the delectable Mrs. Zema's pizza await. Alternatively, you can continue the fun at The Royal Oak Hotel, where more live music and local beverages are on offer. Transportation options, including a convenient bus package from Mt Gambier and shuttle buses to and from Penola, are available for your convenience.
Make the most of your visit and turn it into a weekend getaway by visiting Raidis Estate on Saturday night for Chris's famous charcoal grill. As you explore the event, you'll have the chance to indulge in homemade treats, sumptuous meals made from locally sourced ingredients, and mouthwatering pizzas. Dancing under the starry night sky, you'll create memories that will last a lifetime at the Coonawarra After Dark Weekend.
In addition to the excitement of the grape stomping and delicious food, the event also offers captivating wine tours. Immerse yourself in the world of Coonawarra wineries as you sample a variety of wines and gain insight into their day-to-day operations. Interacting with the passionate winemakers will provide you with a unique perspective on the process of creating a bottle of wine. You can even observe and engage with the grape harvesters, getting a firsthand experience of this critical stage in winemaking. And of course, after all the hard work, you'll have the pleasure of enjoying the fruits of the winemakers' labour.
The Coonawarra After Dark Weekend is an exciting and vibrant celebration that brings together wine enthusiasts, music lovers, and foodies. Join us for this unmissable event and create memories that will last a lifetime.
