Harvest Moon Festival 2025

Recharge as we connect with land, honour the circle of life and unearth the senses.

Harvest Moon is named after its historical connection to farmers. It provides ample moonlight in the early evening for farmers harvesting autumn crops. The arrival of the Harvest Moon means autumn is officially coming to an end and we believe it is a time to relax, restore and revitalise. 

Regenerate your mind, body and soul at Delatite Wines, Harvest Moon Festival from the 25th - 27th April 2025. 

Explore earth, air, fire and water and give them the opportunity to explore and harness the power of nature, all while experiencing the beauty of the local Delatite Valley. It is about regenerating your mind, body and soul while learning about the positive effects of regenerative farming.

Estate Tour with David Ritchie

Explore Delatite’s biodynamic vineyard, gardens and winery with owner David Ritchie.

Each tour is an in-depth look into the family history, the way the grapes are grown, how the wines are made and the key values that inform everything that is done at Delatite.

After meeting in the cellar door, walk and look at the vineyard while learning about biodynamic principles. Then taste wines straight from the barrel at the winery and learn about natural wine making. Walk back via the vegetable garden and chickens. In the cellar door you will enjoy (we hope) a glass of Pet Nat and then say goodbye to your guide.

Book Launch with Jade Miles from Black Barn Farm

We are excited to welcome Jade Miles from Black Barn Farm to launch her new book Huddle. 

This is Jade’s second book and is a practical, inspirational guide to the art of creating community ties. 

Jade has said of the book, “Building a tomorrow of togetherness is a deeply held desire for our humanity to navigate itself into perpetuity on a finite planet. Sometimes the scale of the work required can be gulpingly daunting but sometimes one small idea can be grasped & built into practice, giving us reason to rebuild our patterns, redefine our 'enough', re-ritualise & get comfortable with less control & more emergence.”

$120pp*

*This launch includes a copy of Huddle, a 2 course lunch and a glass of wine. 

4.00pm to 8.00pm
