Welcome to The Darwin Wine Party – where great wine meets Top End chaos (the good kind).
Grapes of Mirth and Darwin Festival are taking over the lawns at Mindil Beach Casino Resort for an afternoon of sunshine, storytelling and seriously good wine, hosted by Merrick Watts. Think interactive tastings, main stage entertainment and DJ tunes to keep the party vibes going all day and into the evening.
Expect more than 60 wines from six states across Australia, poured by four wine experts who know their stuff – and know how to have a laugh while doing it.
Your ticket includes six tastings, mapped into a personalised wine journey based on what you actually like (not what someone tells you to like). From dangerously smashable bubbles to big, bold reds, this is wine tasting – without the boring bits.
All tickets include a take-home wine glass.
