Meet the Maker Masterclass
Saturday 19 September - 12pm to 2.30pm.
Some Saturday afternoons are better spent than others.
Paul Dahlenburg, one of the Victorian high country’s most celebrated w**emakers, joins us for an intimate afternoon masterclass in our private upstairs dining room.
Paul Dahlenburg, better known as Bear, is one of the Victorian high country’s most celebrated w**emakers.
Alongside his wife Lauretta, he runs Eldorado Road a small vineyard in the foothills between Beechworth and Wangaratta, producing an extraordinary range including Nero d’Avola, Durif and cool-climate Chardonnay.
A few years ago, Paul and Lauretta were given a rare opportunity to revive a derelict dry-land vineyard in Glenrowan, first planted in the 1890s. The Shiraz it now produces carries more than a century of history.
Limited seats available - bookings reservation via link in bio.

Our Dark Chocolate Mousse is made with Weiss 67% dark chocolate, creating a beautifully rich, smooth and intensely chocolatey mousse, with little pieces of chocolate folded through for extra texture.
Served with our delicate house-made tuile biscuit for that perfect crisp finish.
And because dessert deserves a good pairing, enjoy it with a glass of Chambers Muscat or try something a little different with a Ratafia apple blend liquor from Brittany.
Rich, silky, crunchy and the perfect way to finish dinner.

Escargots baked with garlic, parsley and a splash of Pastis for that beautiful touch of anise and finished with golden breadcrumbs.
Rich, buttery and made for dipping your bread into every last drop. 🐌🥖
