Valentine's in the Vines is an intimate seasonal dining experience at Sirromet, held at the winery's vineyard block in Mount Cotton, Queensland. Set on gentle vineyard slopes just southeast of Brisbane, the event pairs a carefully arranged grazing platter with a bottle from Sirromet's premium range as the sun slides toward evening. The location offers rows of mature vines, long views across open farmland, and a wide Queensland sky that frames sunset colors while nearby native eucalypts edge the property. The heart of the evening is the platter: cured meats, prosciutto-wrapped rockmelon, caprese salad, marinated vegetables, mortadella with pesto focaccia, crostoli and themed Valentine's cookies, all matched to a bottle chosen from the Seven Scenes, Garnit, or other Sirromet ranges. Small tables - two to four guests each - keep the mood private without being fussy, and a pop-up bar lets you extend a pour if you want to linger. Children are allowed but the event targets adults; minimum age is 18 for wine service. What makes this event stand out is the combination of vineyard setting and deliberate simplicity. Rather than a formal tasting, the focus is sensory: the salt of cured meats, the acidity of a crisp Sauvignon Blanc, and the tactile comfort of shared plates as dusk deepens. The tasting experience is local in scale - produce and cheeses are sourced to complement Sirromet wines - and the venue sits within a region of working farmland and native bush that supports seasonal wildlife like cockatoos and kangaroos. Practical details: check in via the Arbour Vineyard Block at 850 Mt Cotton Rd; the experience runs about two hours; bookings are limited and dietary substitutions are limited to low-gluten options only. Bring a light jacket - the temperature can dip after sunset - and a printed or digital booking confirmation. If weather impacts the event, Sirromet will rebook or refund attendees. This is a good fit for couples or small friend groups seeking a low-key yet carefully curated Valentine's evening without the formality of a restaurant. It's an invitation to slow down, taste locally made wine with a well-composed platter, and watch a southern sky change over the rows of vines - a short escape from urban bustle that still feels of the place. Plan your arrival so you have time to wander a short stretch of vines before settling; the property usually offers on-site parking and staff will direct you to the Arbour Vineyard Block. Wear flat shoes for grass and bring a sunhat in warmer months - Queensland evenings cool quickly but daylight can be strong. To extend the experience, visit the cellar door earlier in the afternoon for additional tastings of Garnit and Seven Scenes labels. Reserve early as seating is limited and Valentine bookings commonly sell out, and check arrival times.
