Byron Bay Fabulous Ladies Wine Soiree with Raidis Estate

Byron Bay & Northern Rivers members, it's that time of year again! Time for us to celebrate the (almost) start of Spring with our second local event of the year. And for this we're bringing you one of our favourite women of wine of all time: Emma Raidis from Raidis Estate.

Emma and her wines have been a fabulous ladies' member favourite for the last 10 years. But the last time we brought her to Byron was way back in 2016 so it's been far too long between drinks! We can't wait for you to meet her, or share a glass with her again.

Raidis Estate wines are produced sustainably from their own estate grown vineyards in Coonawarra. In fact, sustainable wine production is so important to their philosophy that they even put a picture of a goat on their logo, and name all their wines after goats! Why? Because it's the goats who do such a great job in the vineyard keeping the weeds out, removing the need for chemicals and sprays. (They also happen to look completely adorable.)

Emma and her husband Steven run Raidis Estate, and they are a young couple doing amazing things with varieties and styles that are really exciting and pushing the boundaries. 

Don't miss your chance to learn all about them, try them for yourself and have a fabulous night out with other wine loving women at the same time!We are thrilled to once again be holding this event at Forest at Crystalbrook as the opening event for the 2024 Sample Festival - the NSW Northern Rivers premier food festival!

WHAT ARE THE FABULOUS LADIES' WINE SOCIETY EVENTS ABOUT? This is all about bringing together women who love wine and introducing you to women who produce wine! Over an evening of wining, dining, learning and laughing. Most importantly, as a wine drinker and buyer, you are given the chance to directly support the women who make it. 

WANT TO COME WITH FRIENDS? Great! You can book separately, or together, and we'll make sure you're seated together on the night.

THINKING OF COMING ON YOUR OWN? That's no problem either! Lots of people do. And we'll seat you with some fabulous wine loving women who'll quickly become new friends.
