Breaking away from conventions and familiar paths is a risk that winemakers are, more often than not, willing to take.
Whether it is experimenting with skin macerations in Champagne or rescuing overlooked or almost extinct indigenous grapes, what these growers share is a common desire to explore new ideas and techniques, in the vineyard and in the cellar.
Join us for a dinner to discover the stories of these rebels and pioneers, and their fresh and sometimes unusual take on winemaking.
The intimate group will enjoy a menu by Chef Seb Myers, accompanied by some of our favourite bottles from our cellar.
