OLINDA CELLARS "MYSTERY WINE" DINNER
FRIDAY 31ST AUGUST 2012
Coonara Springs Restaurant 7.30pm
PICK THAT WINE
(Our last dinner for 2012)
We are holding another of our wine dinners, and after the immensely successful response to our previous Mystery dinners, we are keeping the same format . I will be offering a stunning selection of some of my favourite wines, all reds with a pretty simple theme, pick that wine. Participants will be able to partake in a multiple choice options format to guess the variety, region and age of each wine.
A $100 Olinda Cellars gift voucher will be offered to the person who gets the most correct options. Or should you not like to be involved in the options, simply sit back and just enjoy a night of stunning wine and food.
Both current release and aged wines will be served on the night, all superbly matched with a 3 course extravaganza provided by the wonderful team at Coonara Springs.
Those who attended other “Mystery Dinner” were treated to the likes of aged Mt Langi Ghiran Shiraz, Rockford of Barossa, and Henschke as well as Grosset and Pikes Reserve to name a few. This dinner will emulate similar prestige wines and not to be missed as it will only be afterwards for those attending to appreciate the calibre of wines offered.
