Scarborough Wine Co Pick-Up Party FAQ's
I’ve never been to the Pick-Up Party – what’s it all about?
Our annual Pick Up Party is the most sought-after Wine Club event on our calendar, giving you the exclusive opportunity to visit us in our Hunter Valley home and meet some of the faces behind the emails and phone calls! Our passionate and knowledgeable team host a curated tasting featuring delicious new release and back vintage wines, followed by a sumptuous sit-down lunch cooked from our wine barrel steamers. After being wined and dined, you then “Pick Up” your September Wine Club pack along with any new favourites you may have discovered on the day. The Pick Up Party ticket is at no cost for a Wine Club member and their guest.
