Christmas shopping vineyard style

Combine your festive shopping with some ‘me time’ by browsing artisan stalls in a vineyard / winery setting – there’s lots of makers market and Christmas fairs taking place across the country. Many have refreshments available and some even have live music. It’s the perfect way to pick up some unique, locally produced gifts and maybe you’ll find your new favourite festive wine at the same time. Think of it as multi-tasking!

Whether you like to get organised early or want to wait until closer to the big day, there are lots of options. Some vineyards / wineries are running events over multiple dates to give you maximum shopping time.
