On Wednesday night we held our 3rd annual Barossa in Boardshorts wine tasting, an event which brings the best of the Barossa
to Brisbane. Another Paint the Town Purple success saw around 200 wine enthusiasts turn up, all eager to explore the diversity of the region through the small producers we aim to support. For many it was chance to discover the superb wines of Linfield Road, Domain Barossa, Balthazar, Russell wines, Moorooroo Park and other boutique producers from the region. Some people were even lucky enough to get a taste of a rare 2002 MDV Wines Eden Valley Riesling which was drinking beautifully and had many years ahead of it.
The night also marked our move to a special new tasting venue; The Strand at Rugby Quay. It’s fantastic place to enjoy our Paint the Town Purple events and we appreciate your support as we continue to grow. Our special congratulations go to Brandon Wortley from Ray White who won a magnum of great wine and Kerry Grant of Teneriffe, winner of a unique Penfolds Grange tasting worth $900. We look forward to seeing you all next time!
