Pack your picnic rug! The 4th annual East Malvern Food and Wine Festival is about to hit the green ovals of Central Park.
Sunday 17 November sees Central Park transformed into a food and wine heaven. With free entry, live music, face-painting, magic shows, wine, beers, spirits, produce and your fave local restaurants, the festival is bound to keep the whole family happy.
You will be able to have a tipple from 17 Victorian wineries including: Turners Crossing, Innocent Bystander, Balgownie Estate, Red Edge, Noble Red Winery, Silver Spoon Estate, Chambers Rosewood Vineyards, Linnaea Vineyards, The Farmer & The Scientist, Rob Dolan Wines, Montalto, Heathcote Winery, Trentham Estate, Wine Selectors, Bike & Barrell, Buckshot Vineyard and Mount Avoca. There will be wine-tastings, masterclasses and cheese accompaniments from Goldfields Farmhouse Cheese. You can pre-purchase tickets to these online.
For those feeling hoppy, small batch producers will have you smiling including Darraweit Valley Cider, K.BOOCH Alcoholic Kombucha and Bad Shepherd Brewing Co.
Unique distillers Mr Blacks and Great Ocean Road Gin will also keep the cocktail lovers happy.
As well as your favourite beverages, the festival includes pop-up stalls from local restaurants (my favourite pizzeria, 48h will be making an appearance) as well as the opportunity to buy fine produce.
