Balancing a perfectly blended wine creates a result that is greater than the sum of its parts – do you have what it takes? Discover your inner winemaker on this full day ‘Blend your own Wine’ tour which includes an exclusive hands-on red wine blending workshop, where you will work one-on-one with the winemakers to handcraft your ‘perfect blend’, which is yours to take home and enjoy.

This is the ultimate wine tour for wine-lovers, for people who want to learn more about wine, or for those that think they missed their calling as a winemaker!

Many of the great red wines of the world are blends of several grape varietals, and we go beyond the barrel on this full day hands-on wine tour to take you behind the scenes on a personalised wine tasting journey through different red wine grape varietals and the art of blending. You will then take to the blending bench yourself to be the winemaker and create your own signature blend to bottle and take home.

  • Go behind the scenes of the winery
  • Sample an extensive range of red wine varietals
  • Learn about the strength and weakness of each variety
  • Tailor-make your own blended red wine (750ml bottle)
  • Label and bottle your blend to take home

This private wine blending workshop is part of a full day tour in the beautiful Bickley Valley. After you have mastered the art of wine blending, we will head across the Bickley Valley for a 'Nonna's Table' long lunch - sample the estate grown Italian varietals and enjoy a relaxed afternoon with a Sicilian inspired five-course long lunch overlooking the vineyard. Price includes pick-up/drop-off, wine tastings, a comprehensive wine blending workshop with a 750ml bottle of your blend to take home, lunch overlooking the picturesque vineyards, and a cheese platter.

NEED TO KNOW.

  • Tours are max 11 people (and sometimes less) which means we get access to venues that won't take the big bus groups.
  • For the comfort of all guests, our wine tours are adults 18+ only, and our food tours are 16+. For touring with children, please see our private tour options.
  • Our tours are not 'cookie cutter' and no two days are the same! We visit small businesses that offer a genuine and authentic local experience. This means sometimes we may need to switch things up and while each tour may be slightly different, you will always get inclusions that are the equivalent (or better!).

What people say about this tour...

A day full of wine and learning ... so good you could almost pass it off as ‘professional development’. The opportunity to not only learn about wine blending but get your hands dirty and actively play with creating your own blend was awesome. Memories created forever.
~ Bronwen, TripAdvisor  
It's great to have a tour where the venues are chosen carefully, the guides are educated and share their love of all the wonderful wineries and hidden secrets. I loved learning new things about wine and the winemaking process, and visiting places I never knew existed - which are literally 20-25 minutes from home.
~ Melissa, TripAdvisor  
Fantastic day with the Up close and local team in the beautiful Bickley valley! We started with Blending our own vintages, followed by a delicious lunch and tasting with the winemaker. Paul is a great host, knows the venues really well and how to look after his guests! Will definitely do another tour with these guys again soon!
~ Geoff, TripAdvisor  
Great wine tasting at boutique wineries, gourmet lunch and fun attempt at blending my own wine from a selection of five different wines. Fun group of people and perfectly organised.
