What to do on a cold night in Melbourne when the sun taps out at 5PM, the wind attacks your ankles, and somehow 15°C feels like the Arctic? Instead of surrendering to another evening of scrolling in bed (no shade), we’ve got a better idea. Something warmer. Moodier. Tastier.
Visit an urban winery
Located right in the heart of Flinders Lane, Melbourne Winery is a modern urban winery. The space? Moody. The lighting? luxe. The wine? incredible. The food? Mouthwatering.
What people don’t know is that they have a whole restaurant with a huge menu all paired to their wines (not the other way around). Their Chef’s Selection is everything you want in a winter experience: rich, warming, wine-forward, and a little bit mysterious. It’s the perfect cosy date night, or dinner with some pals.


Pair food & wine
For just $99, they have taken the guess work out of ordering. They will bring you plates to share and wine to pair, not only is it such good value, but you don’t have to lift a finger until it’s time to dig in.
My lazy winter a** says yes to this. It’s the kind of place that you’ll want to go on repeat this winter. Warm inside, moody lighting, great wine, and food… what else could you ask for?
