Harvest Festival 2010
Every Autumn harvest our family invites the public out to unite with us in an evening of traditional grape stomping and live entertainment with a South American flavour. Our acclaimed Harvest Festival features the Kantuta band and dazzling Brazilian dancers, which blended with our own Mediterranean buffet and Vilagrad wines make for an unmatched occasion of celebration. Prepare yourself, your family and friends for an exquisite occasion of fine wine, food and entertainment.
You will be warmly greeted by the Nooyen family and staff. Enjoy the luxury of an award-winning wine while dining under the original canopy of grape vines planted one century ago. Experience traditional winemaking methods by trampling grapes in the huge barrel and witness the grapes being pressed by one of New Zealand's historic basket presses, then let the Harvest festivities carry you away for a night to remember.
The Harvest Festival takes place on the 24th of April, and the 1st and 8th of May. Bookings are essential (limited tickets). We now have new onsite accommodation.
