Winter Shiraz Festival – 1, 2 & 3 August 2025

The Geelong Wine Region’s Winter Shiraz Festival returns for its 10th year.

Over the weekend, wineries across the region will showcase local produce and cool-climate Shiraz with tastings, food, and warm hospitality.

Make Oakdene one of your stops and take a break from the cold inside our iconic Upside Down House Cellar Door.

Join us for a relaxed guided tasting that highlights the many sides of Shiraz, from a lively sparkling and a dry Rosé, to a classic blend and our signature cool-climate styles. It’s a great way to explore just how versatile this grape can be.

Tastings are $10 per person and include six wines:

• NV Sparkling Shiraz
• 2023 Bellarine Peninsula Rosé
• 2023 Bellarine Peninsula Field Blend
• 2023 Bellarine Peninsula Shiraz
• 2020 Single Vineyard William Shiraz
• 2017 Single Vineyard William Shiraz (back vintage)

A celebration of Shiraz, Oakdene-style, inviting, relaxed, and full of character.
