Day 2 Margaret River - Farmer's Market & Luxury Escapes Ultimate Degustation Menu at Leeuwin Estate

Farmer's Market is only available on Saturday mornings -
I highly recommend it, 
so if you could schedule your trip to coincide that will be great!












Most of the farm produce are small batch & family owned,
so they are environmentally responsible,
and many are certified organic.

The atmosphere is very chill, 
and the live music was a perfect touch.


We had a light breakfast and headed there to feast!
Fruits were cheap and plentiful, 
but one of our best finds were dried grapes 
(literally huge raisins)
that were so addictive!

We later tracked them down and headed there 
to buy 5 kg of dried grapes home!



I love how environmentally friendly it was!

Pro Tip: 
bring your own bag & reusable bottle, or
rent utensils and cutlery from the first booth!



 

We headed to Leeuwin Estate after for an Ultimate Degustation Menu,
and it was AMAZING.

The Art Series wines were their premium label,
and we had a brief tour of the art gallery below the restaurant -
showcasing the commissioned pieces by Australian artists
for the wine labels.

 



For starters,
we tasted about 6 wines,
and later each of the 7 courses was paired with the perfect wine. 



 . 



It was soo soo good and to be honest 
we got a little tipsy halfway through the lunch!







I think the lunch took almost 3 hours...
by the time we hit dessert I think I had sobered up a bit already haha

Momo even took his nap in the pram
and woke up in time to head down to the beautiful lawn!




They hold annual concerts here,
this lawn is huge and so beautiful!

We just rolled around in the grass and took photos 
and chased Momo around...

Pro Tip:
Don't schedule anything after this lunch - 
it will probably end around 4pm &
you can practically hang out here, 
explore the vineyard 
(we didn't as it started to drizzle so we had to leave)
and just head back to your accommodation!

Maybe prepare a light dinner for your kid, 
but trust me you won't need any dinner after this meal!
