Experience all Tahbilk has to offer with A Day at Tahbilk.
Begin your day with a personally guided tour of the winery encompassing both the old and the new technologies utilised. Tahbilk’s traditional red wines are fermented in the same vats that were used in the 1800’s. But winemaking techniques change and improve with time. In addition to the historic winery, Tahbilk has a modern winery, and employs up to date winemaking techniques and practices. There is no better winery at which to experience a history of winemaking. You can learn why some older techniques are still preferred and where new practices produce a better wine.
Following this you will learn the art of winemaking in the form of blending, the motto being that “the whole is greater than the sum of the parts”. Guided by a Wine Ambassador you will start with individual wines and blend them to create a wine that is truly yours. A 750ml bottle of your blend will be yours to take away.After all your hard work making your own blend you will no doubt be hungry for lunch!
Tahbilk’s Wetlands Café is perched overlooking the wetlands providing an ideal setting for a relaxed lunch with some fine wines. Enjoy a two course lunch created with the finest local produce and a matching glass of wine at each course.
Finish the day with a Wetlands Ecology Tour accompanied by an expert guide who will walk with you through the wetlands trail and explain the restoration work that has been completed, the work being done to save the endangered species that live in the wetlands and the impact the ecological work has on the winery and wines.
