A gathering to celebrate the region’s best provenance and mark the start of the 2026 Grampians Wine Festival. Five regional vineyards will discuss specific pairings between their selected wines and food tailored by the award-winning team at Block & Cleaver.

Enjoy the story behind the menu curated by Executive Chef Dean Sibthorp, alongside pairing notes from the winemakers, while taking in the Grampians backdrop.

Five tasting courses served in the style of ‘Iris’s’ chef canvas menu. Canapes on arrival followed by three savoury courses and a dessert to finish. This offers a snapshot of the produce available based on the season and surroundings.

After dinner, wines will be available for purchase, with an opportunity to discuss where to buy the selected wines on show as well as other vintages and varietals.
