Shedfest                                                                                                                                                                       October 9 - 10 2010 

All wineries have sheds. Usually they are homes to important things such as tractors, presses, crushers, barrels and other interesting bits and pieces all vitally important for the production of fine wines.

However, on Saturday October 9 and Sunday October 10, 2010, the wineries of the Warburton Highway will open their sheds and dust them off in order to accommodate lots of fabulous food, fantastic wine, great live music and fun games.

If your type of festival is one where you can relax, taste local produce, experience the charm of small vineyards, be captivated by stunning views, chat to the winemakers, all whilst sipping delightful wines........then Shedfest Wine Festival is for you!
