Naturellement, a collaboration between We Are Neighbourgood, P&V Wine + Liquor Merchants (with delicious. drinks guru Mike Bennie in tow) and The Edwards, is bringing New South Wales’ best and brightest makers and distributors to Newcastle for a one-off event.

Sip the days away over the weekend of the 17th and 18th April (tickets include all samples from the variety of producers on site), try out The Edwards au naturale wine list, and visit the P&V Merchants ‘Baller Bar’, serving super rare, cult wines, oddities and unseen drinks from the deep P&V Merchants cellars.

Food is sorted, too, with Newcastle’s best chefs collaborating to create a menu for the weekend. Expect plates from the likes of Shayne Mansfield from Flotilla, Joel Humphrey from Scotties and Lost Boys, Remy Tattersall from Equium Social, Subo’s David Gleadhilland and of course the master of the Edwards kitchen, Michael Portley.

And for an educational edge, Mike Bennie will host four masterclasses run across two sessions per day (with the option of full day tastings, too), focussing on topics like ‘Pet Nat Party’, ‘Orange Wine 101’ and ‘Wild Drinks’. Expect fun, informative sessions with plenty of tasting involved.

WHEN: 17th & 18th April, 11am-2pm & 3pm-6pm
WHERE: The Edwards, Newcastle West
