Local producers around the district gathered at Halls Gap oval with a stunning mountain backdrop for the annual Grampians Grape Escape. A fantastic day which was MCd by Dominic Brine Ballarats ABC breakfast program presenter. Music complemented the day very nicely and we munched on chilli beef s
ausages, sweet corn, paella and beef sandwiches followed up by ice cream and waffles.

Quite an interesting concept we shelled out $25 for unlimited tasting however at that time unbeknown to us you could actually buy bottles of wine from any vendor however apparently you needed a glass to do so.
It was indeed a fantastic social event educating the public on the local delicacies. Thomas the tank engine ride were an absolute hit with the young ones and the Seppelts Clydesdale's were an appropriate addition. 
At 2pm I couldnt pass up on the Grampians Winemakers Barrique Auction. The wine was produced with the participation of a number of local winemakers who provided wine. I purchased a 2 and then a dozen. The two to drink and the dozen to lay down.
