Forthcoming Events at the Estate

The Chicken, The Trufle and The Grape

Saturday, 23rd June or Sunday 24th June from 12.30pm

Once upon a time as happy ckooks grzed in the meadow and the winemaker's vintage was complete, the chef stoked the wood fire for the roaast chickens with truffles and settled down with the farmer and the winemaker to wait for their guests.  At Ellender Estate, Monsieur Pierre and Yapanya Meadow Grazed Chickens invite you to be part of the story for lunch on June 23rd or Sunday 24th of June.

Tickets are $65 per person and include two courses and a glass of "Ellender"- Méthode Champenoise NV on arrival.

Discover Your Wine Senses

Saturday 16th June 2012 - 3.30pm to 5.00pm

Wine is art and science intermingled with black magic.

Wine can be confusing, confounding and confronting – but should it be so?
Some wines you love; others are not your style – many you do not understand.
Wine like a painting arouses the senses – not only composition, balance, colour, texture but also aroma, flavour and a harmony with foods and the occasion. 

Wine is an expression of the humble grape with unique attributes from the region - revealing hidden aromas and textures when fermented and aged.
At Ellender Estate we invite you to build up an understanding of wine.

The Experience
In a small group interaction, the sensation of wine is explored and factors influencing wine such as lighting, glass style and temperature are considered. The session lasts approximately an hour and a half and concludes with a cheese platter, wine tasting and talk!.
Fun and innovative presentation by Dr Graham Ellender, Brewer, University Educator, Dental Surgeon - now Winemaker!
It is an encounter into the components of wine and how you perceive them as an individual - in short it “Indulges your Senses”!

$35 per person - bookings are essential.
