Join us for our very first wine lunch on Friday the 30th of May—an extraordinary afternoon hosted by Justine Henschke, offering guests a rare opportunity to taste the newly released Henschke Single Vineyard Collection, just weeks after its global debut on the 7th of May. Be among the first to experience the acclaimed 2021 vintage, celebrated for its purity, balance, and deep connection to the ancient soils of Eden Valley.

This exclusive afternoon at Firma Italian will showcase the exceptional craftsmanship of one of Australia’s most revered winemaking families. Guided by Justine, sixth-generation family member, guests will explore a handpicked selection of Henschke wines, including museum and rare releases, paired with a five-course culinary journey.

Hailed as a standout of the decade, the 2021 vintage is described by the Henschke family as “Graced by an Ancient Land”—wines of purity, elegance and varietal depth, born from the ancient red soils of Eden Valley.
