OX HARDY WINES - JUNE 20
Ashley Jones
An evening of colour, character and coastal influence - right here in the outback.
​
We welcome Andrew & Henry for a six-course dining experience inspired by the Mediterranean - layered with the bold, expressive wines that have become synonymous with the Ox Hardy name.
​
Styled in signature pink, an unmistakable nod to Ox himself, the evening will unfold across a long-table settings, where flickering light, generous plates & flowing conversation set the tone.​
​
Throughout the evening, Ox and Henry will guide guests through each pour—sharing stories of vineyard, vintage and family legacy, in a way that feels personal, unpretentious and deeply connected to place.

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!
