25.01.2022 Mother's Day is only 2 more sleeps folks! Have you found the perfect gift for your wonderful mum yet? We have lots of fabulous gifts she will love, from beautifully presented gift packs, Ekhidna made produce, gift wrapped bottles with gift cards already to go, and Gift Certificates that never expire :-)...How easy is that!... Gift wrapping & gift card is complimentary. We are open 12-4pm today and Saturday for you to collect your gift so call Kellie today at the cellar door on 0499002633 or send her a message on our Facebook page and she will have everything ready for you when you pop in. The Lemon & Thyme Marmalade is nearly all gone so we are replacing it with the equally delicious Orange & Thyme Marmalade in the packs. #mothersday #ekhidnagiftpacks #freegiftwrapping #giftcertificates #may10th2020 #ekhidnaproduce Mclaren Vale Wine Region
