Patrons were toured through their dining experience using the vibrant hues of the colour spectrum as their guiding compass.

The exclusive event tantalized taste buds with meticulously sourced local ingredients, expertly curated into a kaleidoscope of dishes. Iridescence was a degustation experience that embraced the magical interplay between colour and taste.

This one-time-only food affair revealed a colour spectrum and its most compelling secrets.

Hunter Gather

The Hunter has gathered and a feast awaits. The whip of flames lash your cheek, a swig of wine hits your lips. Inhale charred delicacies foraged from Barossa's harvest on the historic grounds of Seppeltsfield winery for this unique event.

A slow lunch has been meticulously designed by acclaimed Chef Owen Andrews with matched wines on the grounds of Seppeltsfield. Andrews grew up in the Barossa and his knowledge of all things local produce, fauna and flora is nothing short of forensic. In every dish, he exhibits his tireless devotion and deep respect for the region.

Nature, fire and the elements come to the fore in this slow-roving lunch experience that is, with a stubborn pride, committed to a Barossa-forward plate.
