In regional Victoria lie two historic areas known for rugged mountain ranges, spectacular wildflowers, wild and wonderful landscapes, down-to-earth locals, amazing food and wine and a history rooted deep in the gold rush. If you thought the Grampians and Pyrenees, you’d be correct.
Renowned for their winemaking history spanning more than 160 years, the Pyrenees and Grampians wine regions of Victoria boast breathtaking landscapes and down-to-earth winemakers and soon Ballarat will embark on a wine-tasting adventure as the highly anticipated Red Series event returns showcasing the exceptional winemakers and their award-winning creations from Western Victoria.
Mark your calendars for July 28-29, as the Red Series takes place at the historic Mining Exchange building, conveniently located just a short walk from Ballarat's train station.
The Red Series brings together 22 of the region's top wineries, providing wine enthusiasts with a unique opportunity to sample a diverse range of exquisite wines, such as those from the Fratin Brothers Vineyard pictured above. Whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or an adventurous newcomer, this event promises something exceptional for every palate as well as live music, cheese and produce to complement the wines on offer.
This year, the event has been extended to two days, giving attendees ample opportunities to indulge in a world-class wine-tasting experience and stock their cellars with remarkable Grampians and Pyrenees wines.
Don't miss this unparalleled opportunity to immerse yourself in Western Victoria's world-class wine culture.
