Wine Playground returns for its annual boozy bash

While this event is a hop, skip and jump from the usual playground antics, the wine playground will host 18 winemakers and over 50 wines this October.

Adelaide, it’s playtime – but not in the usual manner of the swing-sets and slides. Get ready for The Fruitful Pursuit’s annual Wine Playground, the answer to every wine-lovers dream.

Hosted at Good Gilbert in Goodwood this year, the event will host 18 winemakers, 2 importers and showcase over 50 wines on Sunday 3 October. Tickets cost $65 and will grant access to the event and live forums as well as a TFP x PLUMM glass and nibbles.

While this event is a hop, skip and jump from the usual playground antics, the Fruitful Pursuit event allows guests to swing between boutique and small-batch craft wineries and taste imported drops from Fletcher Wines and I Love Monsters.

Join esteemed wine journalist and writer Katie Spain for an open-air forum during the day and groove to an analog vinyl set by DJ Mehdi at night as you enjoy the array of flavours from SA’s stunning wine regions.

Graze on an array of snacks produced by the neighbourhood bar’s sister company, Gilbert Good’s, and tapas from the team behind Cru Tapas. Bespoke artisan chocolates by Steven Ter Horst and coffee by local roasters, Kindred Coffee.

Celebrating its fifth year, Fruitful Pursuit’s wine playground will be hosted over two sessions in early October. The day session will run between 12pm and 4pm, with the night session kicking off at 5pm.

Fruitful Pursuit is a collective of wine enthusiasts and professionals established in 2014, bonded by their love of all things wine. Now operating across Australia and the U.K, the group hosts intimate wine experiences in South Australia, taking guests beyond the cellar door and providing insight into the state’s renowned wine industry.

Championed as Adelaide’s latest neighbourhood bar, Good Gilbert boasts a long list of SA and International wine, beer and spirits in the cosy, pastel-coloured venue.
