If your dream day out includes sipping your way through velvety pinot noir while indulging in perfectly ripe brie, block out your calendars now -MOULD x PINOT PALOOZA is back for 2025, and it’s bigger, cheesier and more delicious than ever.
After a sold-out run in 2024, Australia’s most decadent food and wine festival is making its triumphant return to Brisbane, Melbourne and Perth. This isn’t just your average tasting event – it’s a full-blown celebration of two of life’s greatest pleasures: artisan cheese and cool-climate pinot noir.
Brought to life by the events team at Revel, the 2025 edition will span 11 flavour-packed sessions across three cities. Expect to sample the best local cheeses (from creamy to stinky and everything in between), toast with world-class wines from the likes of Innocent Bystander, Yering Station and Meadowbank Wines, and meet the passionate producers behind each sip and bite.
The vibe? Think buzzy, joyful and effortlessly chic. The kind of day where you end up with a tote full of boutique honey, handcrafted crackers and enough cheese to see you through the weekend.
“MOULD x PINOT PALOOZA is more than just a tasting – it’s about the magic of the perfect pairing,” says Revel’s new head, Jessica Audas. “You’ll discover how the right wine and cheese can elevate each other in unexpected and unforgettable ways.”
Alongside the tastings, there’ll be gourmet bites from local food vendors, pop-up bars, and curated stalls where you can shop, sip, snack, and repeat. A ticket gets you unlimited tastings, a wine glass, a tote and a cooler bag – because of course you’re taking goodies home.
Whether you’re a connoisseur or just here for the vibes, this is the event your next weekend away should revolve around.
