Gourmands take note: on the 15th and 16th of May, the award-winning
Lovedale Long Lunch will be continuing its tradition of bringing endless delight to yearning tastebuds.
Held amongst the vineyards of
Lovedale, this annual event always attracts giddy crowds eager to wash down marvellous food with even better wine.
The concept is as simple as it is pleasurable: visitors hop between
seven different wineries, enjoying their selection of gourmet food, fine wine, music and art. To learn more about the venues and what they're offering, click on the links below:

The most economical way of running your tour is by purchasing a
LLL Package at the first stop. Costing $42, it includes a tasting glass, as well as a meal ticket and dessert/cheese ticket, which can be redeemed anywhere along the winery crawl. Additional meal and dessert tickets can then be purchased for $25 and $10, respectively.
The Lovedale Long Lunch is better savoured than rushed. It's the sort of event where sitting down and relaxing is the solution, not the problem. So aim to make an entire day of it – or, even better, a weekend, in which case you'll need to book
accommodation.
