RIESLINGFREAK WINE DINNER
Join us for a one-night-only five-course dinner in the Botanist Garden with winemaker John Hughes, paired with acclaimed Rieslingfreak wines from Australia. This one-night-only dinner offers a unique opportunity to explore the breadth and versatility of Riesling through the lens of a single, passionate producer.
About Rieslingfreak
Established in 2009, Rieslingfreak started as a labour of love with the goal of celebrating the depth and diversity of Riesling. Today, the winery is known for 11 numbered styles, each reflecting both its origin and unique expression.
Drawing fruit from South Australia’s most renowned Riesling regions – Clare Valley, Eden Valley and Polish Hill River – Hughes creates wines that range from dry to sweet, as well as sparkling and fortified. Few grape varieties offer such breadth, and his winemaking brings out the distinctive character of every vineyard.
