The events space, restaurant and wine garden area for the Folktale winery is part of the Folktale masterplan. The project scope consists of updating the landscape and seating arrangements in the ourdoor wine garden spaces. Interiorly, the existing building was also reconfigured to optimise circulation. This included the rearrangement of the kitchen and back of house spaces and increase connectivity between the wine tasting areas and also the wine cellar at the back.
The wine cellar was converted into an indoor events space that has the ability to host events including weddings and other celebrations. This wine cellar events space opens up to a garden lawn, that allows for either capacity spillover from the cellar space, or a standalone bookable area.
