Punt Road Vintage 2013 Yarra Valley

CT — Tue, 16 Apr 2013 01:25:24 +0000

“This year the Yarra Valley saw an earlier and more condensed harvest than usual with most grapes picked two weeks before their picking dates in recent vintages. We were very lucky to have good winter rainfall followed by dry, warm weather for the crucial part of the growing period. Soil moisture retained high throughout the dry spells, and cool nights helped to retain acidity. So far, the Shiraz is a favourite of the vintage, and our usual best blocks of Chardonnay and Pinot are in barrel and looking REALLY good. Cabernet is still on skins, but showing considerable promise. The consensus is that we can expect great things coming out of this vintage”.

If you would like to sample Punt Road’s lovely wines and fabulous cider then please book a tour with us and we will take you to some of the best wineries in the Yarra Valley.

Easter Long Weekend Barrel Hall Sale! @ Innocent Bystander

CT — Tue, 26 Mar 2013 23:27:53 +0000

“The Easter Bunny has some help,

to deliver treats this year.

Just a little something extra,

to spread the Easter cheer.

In our Giant Barrel Hall,

a hunt that is like no other.

Rummage through our pallet stacks,

to find wine for your mother.

Or brother… or other.”

One Long Weekend Only…

Thu 28 March to Monday 1 April.

(Thu 4-7pm, Fri-Mon 11- 6pm)

Innocent Bystander
336 Maroondah Hwy
Healesville VIC 3777

“With happiness in mind, we say don’t just embrace chocolate this Easter, come to our place, stock up at the barrel hall sale and enjoy a pizza or two, alongside the wine, cheese, coffee, pastries and our famous sourdough. As long as it makes you happy.

We’ll be open from 8am to 10pm every day of Easter. Good Friday however will be Moscato, fizz and Bloody Mary-free over breakfast as alcohol cannot be served before midday. Make sure your spot is reserved before you arrive by booking online or call us on (03) 5962 6111.

This is your chance to also enjoy our Hot Cross Buns, baked daily at the winery. These are a treat within themselves, so much so that Tim White from the Australian Financial Review stated once that ‘with a judicious dab of creamy butter, they are a breakfast ode to gastronomic joy’. Now that’s happiness right there. See you soon.”
