Sunday afternoons unwind slowly at Balancing Heart Vineyard, where live music drifts across the vines to send the weekend out on a high note.

A rotating line-up of local musicians, with guest artists from across Australia joining throughout the year, sets a mellow soundtrack for an easy afternoon among the granite boulders and rolling vines of Queensland’s high-altitude Granite Belt. Pair a glass of complimentary tasting wine with a Stonefire pizza fresh from the oven, or settle in with a shared platter and let the afternoon stretch out.

It’s a relaxed, family and dog friendly way to close out the weekend, with sweeping views to the Roberts Range.

Just outside Stanthorpe on the Granite Belt wine trail, Sunday Session in the Vines makes a fitting last stop on any Southern Downs getaway.
