Experts say you should pair wine with cheese – but we reckon pairing wine and dogs is just as good. If you agree, then pack up your favourite woofer and head over to Puppies and Pinot at Welcome to Thornbury.
The one-day event combines two of the most universally loved things in the world: wine and dogs. Naturally you’ll be able to get yourself a nice tipple or two, but don’t forget Fifi – at Puppies and Pinot you can get wine for puppers too. Vinomofo will be there serving samples of its tastiest drops, and there will be food trucks and dog treats available to fill both human and canine bellies.
Treat your favourite four-legged fuzz ball to some puppy swag from market stalls or treat yourself to some pinot winescream (yes wine ice cream is a thing). You can score a frosty cone for a donation to Forever Friends Animal Rescue, so there's no shame in going back for seconds.
Those strong with the force will realise that Puppies and Pinot is happening on Star Wars day. Organisers are leaning into it as well, with guests encouraged to dress up their pooch in their best Star Wars outfit. Prizes are up for grabs, so we hope to see plenty of Chew-bark-as and Obi-wag Kenobis.
Puppies and Pinot is on from 11am to 7pm on Saturday, May 4.
