WIN 2 tickets to an exclusive Evans & Tate winemaker lunch!
The oh so lovely Cellar Door Manager, Rich at Evans & Tate in the Margaret River has given me 2 tickets (valued at $85 a pop!) to giveaway to their upcoming Winemaker Lunch for the launch of the new release Redbrook Reds from the legendary 2011 vintage. The lunch is on Saturday May 24th at 12:30pm at the Wilyabrup winery in the Margaret River.
This exclusive event is one not to be missed as it’ll be the first appearance of the 2011 Redbrook Shiraz since it won the Best Wine of the Show, Best Red Wine and Best Shiraz at the WA Qantas Wine Show in 2013. Having tried it at the show, I have to admit it’s truly delightful and I can’t wait to taste it again!
But that’s not all folks! Alongside this, Chief Winemaker Matt Byrne will be bringing along a few barrel samples and popping a cap on some back vintages. It’ll be the first time these wines will be tasted in public! Are you licking your lips yet?
Well… again, that’s not all! The shared table style lunch will be created and prepared by the wonderful and extremely talented Sean Carter, Head Chef & General Manager of Muster, Margaret River. If the delicious Muster breakfasts are anything to go by, then this lunch is going to be AMAZING! For further details on the event please click here.

It is supposed to rain in Margaret River all this weekend. Great for the plants, not so great for those of us will be camping…
A Redbrook and Muster treat will give us a precious few dry hours, and a chance to swap the scrabble board for tasting notes.
What a experience it would be to be in Margret River and to celebrate this occasion with my partner and to taste some of the best Wine in the country.
I have never been lucky enough to experience something like this before and to have the chance to do so would be awesome. I love both red and white wine and to be able to treat myself and let my hair down for this special event with my beautiful partner would be such a memorable day.
Evans and Tate
With Margaret River soil and sun,
Shall cultivate
Such laughs and fun,
In the sharing of Redbrook wine and tasty Muster food
A glass of red, my love and I
why, life is surely good
Over the years I have drunk enough of their wine to pay for lunch there for a year straight!! But sadly we have never been to the winery! I would love to check out the fabulous menu along with one of my fave drops, their classic white mmmmm
Ooh wine sweet wine,
Where for art thou,
The pinots and merlots,
The muller thurgau,
Some sparkling,
Some still,
Room temperature,
or chilled,
Oh wine sweet wine,
To guzzle or swill,
So what’s the best?
In this contest,
Some say chardy or sav blanc
Viognier or cab franc,
But the choice is easy for me!
It’s not Malbec or gewurts,
Though I love all sorts,
The best wine my friends is what’s free!!!
its my dedicated hubby to our 3 babies birthday that day – this would be the ultimate present!
Here is my heartfelt, witty and thoughtful reason for wanting to attend the Evans & Tate Winemaker lunch.
My heart has fallen for a wine connoisseur and although my love of wine is deep and everlasting I haven’t the depth of knowledge that he has. I would love to share this experience with him. thank you 🙂
I’d love to win, but living in Melbourne I’m a bit far away! Good luck to everyone who enters. I’m sure the winner will have a fabulous time!
Being the first comment-er shows my dedication 😉 and this just sounds like an incredible event to attend!!
