Wines That Defined Long Lunch | Melbourne

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

Set in the hottest new dining destination at 1 Hotel Melbourne, From Here By Mike, you’ll enjoy a delicious, locally sourced four course custom menu from Chef Mike McEnearney (Kitchen by Mike), 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 Co-chair Adam Walls, this is a rare chance to experience the wines every collector, connoisseur, and serious wine lover should have on their radar.
