Burning of the Canes

Celebrate the Burning of the Canes at Austin's Wines.

This annual ritual marks the end of the grape harvest and the beginning of a new season. Join in for a spectacular bonfire on their 1500-acre property, symbolizing rebirth and prosperity. Enjoy live Music, mouth watering winter warming food from your favourite food trucks, and award-winning wines. With mulled wine, winter cocktails, and delicious food, this all-weather event promises an unforgettable night.

With a history of being a European Pagan ceremonial ritual of burning the old vine canes that have recently been pruned, Burning of the Canes is a celebration of the rebirth of our vines as the buds start to come back to life. They will be celebrating a successful 2025 harvest whilst welcoming the new season of our 2026 vintage with the hopes that it will be another bountiful and top quality harvest.

This year they are going with a country theme. Think cowboy boots, Akubra hats and Flanny shirts. For the brave think Cowboy Carter, Leather chaps and Fringe Jackets. Put on your boots, grab a jacket, and get ready for an amazing evening.
