A Few of Michael's Favourite Things

We're taking an exclusive deep dive in the boss man's cellar.

Join Michael for an incredible seven-course dinner, paired with a seriously impressive line-up of favourites from his collection.

21st of October | 6:30pm | $1,250pp
Book your spot here. Full payment required to secure tickets.

This special evening will be hosted by Nick Ryan, senior wine writer for The Australian and a columnist for The World of Fine Wine, Halliday Magazine and Robb Report contributer and an in-demand presenter at wine events around the world.

We’ll kick things off with Pol Roger Cuvée Sir Winston Churchill, before diving into a special vertical of Jacques Carillon’s Grand Cru Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet, exploring how this legendary Burgundy vineyard changes from vintage to vintage. From there, we head to Piedmont with an amazing collection of Bruno Giacosa Riservas, including the individually numbered 2001 and 2004 Barolo Riservas, the iconic Asili Red Label Barbarescos, and the Falletto Vigna Le Rocche Riservas — widely regarded as the pinnacle of Giacosa’s Barolo.

To finish, few wines in the world provide a more fitting finale than 1998 Egon Müller Scharzhofberger Riesling Eiswein - a legendary Mosel dessert wine of breathtaking purity, longevity and rarity - from Michael's longtime collaborator and friend. 

Every course has been created with the wines in mind, making this a pretty unforgettable night for wine lovers, collectors and anyone who enjoys drinking something a little extraordinary.
