Join Church Road’s winemaking team on a very special journey to engage the senses and stimulate the palate.
Church Road Winery brings to F.A.W.C! a uniquely immersive experience helping to create one of the team’s most recognised and awarded wines - Church Road Grand Reserve Chardonnay. You will be guided on an intimate tour of the winery, as you learn about Church Road’s Chardonnay winemaking philosophy. See for yourself how the vintage is managed behind the scenes, with an exclusive invitation to come back to the winery throughout the following year and see how your 2025 Chardonnay is developing. You might even choose to get hands-on and stir and top a barrel of wine! Enjoy a guided tasting of 9 vintages of Chardonnay from the Grand Reserve and TOM ranges, and experience how cellar age transforms this varietal. Finally, a relaxed platter lunch accompanied, naturally, by wine concludes your experience. Once the 2025 Grand Reserve Chardonnay is released, you will be sent a gift set of Church Road Grand Reserve Chardonnay 2025 to enjoy at home.
Ticket price includes vintage and winery experience with a member of the winemaking team, current and back vintage Chardonnay wine tasting, platter lunch and glass of wine. A gift set will follow as a reminder of your day.
