Want to learn about wine, have the chance to win some prizes and have a lot of fun as well? Well, wine options is for you!

" Team event with the emphasis on FUN.
" Find 4 people interested in wine and think up the catchiest name and come in costume to match. Some examples of team names are Bob Merlot & the Winos, Punks on Plonk, The Big Spit, Hard Act to Swallow, Deft Palates, Noble Rotters, The Spitt-Hoons, No Screwpulls, Natural Born Swillers, Pinot Envy, etc.
" Teams are asked to answer 5 questions on 8 different wines. (4 white and 4 red)
" Choose the correct answer from the three options (A, B or C) provided for each question.
" Even if people are new to wine and they really don't know how to tell the difference between a Cabernet and a Shiraz (and none of us do either!), at least they have options to choose from.
" So Wine Options is a game for everyone to enjoy.

Vintage activities

grape_picking_Pyramids_Road

Picking and crushing - customers are invited to join us each year to be involved in the winemaking process. Vintage usually starts around mid March however timing is impossible to predict. We only pick when the grapes are ready so we cannot give you much advance notice. It's a great weekend, picking first up on Saturday, lunch provided in the cellar door, more picking and crushing on Sunday morning. You'll even get a free T-shirt to prove you were here!

Bottling - We usually bottle when we need the barrels however it is possible that bottling can occur anytime throughout the year. Be involved in bottling your own bottle and add your own label. It's a lot of fun without the hard work.

Pyramids Road Wines is a winery located 20 minutes from Stanthorpe near Ballandean on the Granite Belt. Taste award winning wines in the cellar door, dry sweet and dessert wines. A boutique winery with cellar door wine tastings and sales.
