On Saturday, 26 July at 12pm, we'll gather around long family-style tables for an unforgettable afternoon of exceptional food, outstanding wines, and the joy of sharing it all with the people around you.

Held during this Women's Month, this special gathering, leading up to the 5-year anniversary of the remarkable young women, Angeliqué, Chanté, Jamie, Jenna, and Jesse.
