    A stunning weekend of fantastic wines, beautiful countryside and of course wonderful music.

    The open secret of the upper King Valley is that the wines are sensational. Concentrating mainly on the Italian varieties which make a welcome change to the now traditional French styles. There are a number of promotional weekends throughout the year to enjoy, but the upper King Valley is a treat any time of the year.
