The Winter Solstice (shortest day of the year) is this weekend and what better way to celebrate than with a tour of the Yarra Valley’s smaller winemakers. The Shortest Lunch allows you to wander from one boutique winery to another whilst enjoying entrĂ©e size meals, wine and live music. As well as being a fantastic day out, you are helping the community as the money raised from the entry/souvenir glass goes to the local CFA. You could also make a whole weekend of the two-day event by staying overnight in the picturesque Yarra Valley. To find out more about the event, check out the Shortest Lunch website: http://www.yarravalleysmallerwineries.com.au/events/shortest-lunch-2015
