The day begins beneath a stand of gum trees at Oxenberry Farm, where a small fleet of three-wheeled electric tuk-tuks hums ready. You push off along quiet road shoulders and farm tracks, vineyards opening like pages along the Shiraz and Flat to Vale trails. Wind in the vines nudges you onward; paddocks and limestone outcrops keep pace in a slow, curious chorus.
