There’s something for every palate, and the experience starts the moment you step through the doors.

Roaming Gourmet Food – Locally Sourced and Lovingly Served

What’s an evening of music and wine without food to match?

Throughout the night, you’ll enjoy roaming pizzas and grazing platters designed to complement the wines and make mingling a breeze. These aren’t your ordinary snacks – we’re talking about handcrafted, stone-baked pizzas with toppings inspired by the region's seasonal produce, and share platters overflowing with artisanal cheeses, cured meats, fresh bread, olives, and more.

Whether you’re standing near the vines with friends or kicking back to the music, there’ll be something delicious within reach all night.

Live Music to Move You

At the heart of Vines & Vibes is the music. As the name suggests, this evening is all about good vibes, and the soundtrack to your night will come from a local and very popular musical talent.

The music is carefully selected to enhance the atmosphere — think golden-hour harmonies as the sun sets, followed by more lively numbers to carry the energy into the evening.

Whether you want to dance, lounge or simply soak in the sound, there’s space for all kinds of music-lovers.

The Setting: Under the Stars at Taylors Wines

There’s no better backdrop for a night like this than the grounds of Taylors Wines. Nestled in the heart of the Clare Valley, Taylors is a name synonymous with premium winemaking and environmental stewardship.

For this special night, their iconic estate will be transformed into a twinkling wonderland of festoon lights, rustic wine barrels, and cozy outdoor seating. The vineyards create a natural amphitheater, and the expansive lawn becomes your open-air venue.

You’ll be surrounded by the scent of the vines, the crisp night air, and the buzz of friendly conversation, all while sipping something delicious and listening to live tunes. It’s a multi-sensory experience that combines the very best of what the Clare Valley has to offer.
