A unique destination; a new chef, top-notch wines.
Sound like your style of event?
Barossa wine producer Hentley Farm is to partner with Olivine wine bar for a one-night-only wine experience inside the former HM Prison Pentridge in Melbourne.
Limited to 45 guests, the Hentley Farm Wine Experience dinner will be hosted by Olivine’s Michelin-trained executive chef Tom Hoy across two of Pentridge’s unique spaces - the Reflection Garden (above) and The Long Hall.
For those who missed the news, Pentridge has been transformed into a world-class hospitality destination.
Hentley Farm’s Nicholas Goss, a qualified winemaker and viticulturalist, will introduce the wines, while a former Pentridge prison guard will offer insights into what life was like behind the bluestone walls.
Guests will dine in B Division’s Long Hall - the dramatic backdrop for a seated, four-course dining experience.
Thinks appetizers like goat cheese and beetroot; chicken liver parfait, apple gel and almond tuile, and dishes including octopus carpaccio with roast pepper salsa, and roast duck breast, cherry gastrique, charred radicchio and hazelnut.
“This is a rare opportunity - not only to taste the exclusive H-Block range and Hentley Farm’s most iconic and new release wines - but to also have it paired with a bespoke menu created by a Michelin-trained chef, the calibre of Tom Hoy,” said Destination Pentridge general manager Christian Price.
“We have created a carefully considered experience where wine, cuisine and storytelling are deeply connected.”
Guests can further immerse in the experience with an optional overnight stay at The Interlude - a boutique hotel with 19 heritage suites carved from former prison cells.
The Hentley Farm Wine Experience Dinner is scheduled for Saturday, July 18. Tickets are $210 per person. Bookings HERE.
