Celebrate Winter Reds at Sidewood // WIN!

On the last weekend of July Sidewood Estate are participating in the Adelaide Hills Winter Reds event, celebrating all those deep warm wines that us South Australian’s so love to drink.

Though drinking red wine is an important part of this weekend, loads of other activities will be going on as well, with a $2000 golf challenge, a DJ spinning beats on the decks from 1pm-5pm daily and a best dressed competition that will run over Saturday and Sunday!

But drinking wine is your passion, you say? Fret not, as wine tastings will be available on the day, including a special $10 tasting where you will get to try five special Sidewood museum wines, until they all run out!

Our pick of the weekends activities would have to be The Ultimate Winter Reds Degustation. Held at Maximilian’s on the Saturday evening, five courses of food will be matched with five courses of wine. Each course of wine will have two glasses for a blind tasting; one a Sidewood wine and one its French equivalent. Guests will be provided with a scorecard where they will rate each wine, and at the end see which it was they preferred! Sidewood’s head winemaker Darryl Caitlin and Maximilian’s head chef Jamie Laing will be present at the dinner to witness the blind tasting go down.
