Wines That Defined Long Lunch | Sydney

Clear your afternoon for a long lunch you won’t want to miss, as we bring together the Australian wines that made the biggest impression on our expert wine Tasting Panel over the past year.

Set in the private dining room upstairs of the hottest new Italian dining destination Cibaria overlooking stunning Manly beach, you’ll enjoy a delicious, locally sourced four course custom menu, matched to 13 outstanding Aussie wines – each chosen for its quality, character, and sheer drinkability, sourced from some of the country’s most coveted producers.

Hosted by Wine Selectors Tasting Panel Will Figueria, this is a rare chance to experience the wines every collector, connoisseur, and serious wine lover should have on their radar.

Seats are strictly limited, and this one-day-only celebration will sell out fast. Secure your place now and be part of a lunch that will define your year!
