TORBRECK VITNERS - AUGUST 1

Don Francis

This winter, we welcome Torbreck Vintners to the Prairie for an evening shaped by Fire & Ferment.

​

Born in the Barossa Valley & shaped by patience, power and precision, the wines of Torbreck Vintners are a reflection of time and place. Led by Chief Winemaker Ian Hongell, each bottle tells a story of old vines, careful stewardship and a deep respect for the land.

 

The evening opens outdoors, gathered around the flames with a glass of Champagne in hand. Canapés arrive warm from the fire as Ian sets the tone - sharing the philosophy and craft behind the wines you’re about to experience.

 

Dinner is a 7 course degustation, each dish shaped by fire - charred, smoked and slow-cooked -  with subtle fermented elements woven throughout.

 

The experience unfolds slowly — built on fire, shaped by time, and grounded in storytelling.

$175 PER PERSON - limited to 40 guests!

LA PROVA - OCTOBER 31

Alexa Young

Set against the cinematic landscape of outback South Australia, ‘La Prairie – Italy in the Outback’ brings together the restless curiosity of La Prova and the rustic, rugged character of Parachilna’s Prairie Hotel.

Founded by winemaker Sam Scott, La Prova is a project driven by exploration, an ever-evolving journey through Italy’s most distinctive grape varieties, reimagined in Australian soil. Each wine is an experiment, a “proof” of concept, capturing both personality and sense of place.

Across the evening, guests will explore a thoughtful lineup paired with the intelligent and perfectly placed food of Prairie chef Billy Dohnt.

Each pour and plate tells a story of old-fashioned exploration, Italy, the Adelaide Hills, and the outback, brought together for one unforgettable night.

$175 PER PERSON - limited to 40 guests!
