Black & Ginger Wines: Cheers to Ten Years!
2025 marks 10 years since high school mates Hadyn Black and Darcy Naunton (aka the Ginger) took the leap and purchased one tonne of Shiraz grapes producing their first vintage under the wine label Black & Ginger.
They're teaming up with Barney's Bar and Bistro, the home of their new cellar door (opening 2025) for a relaxed and fun evening as they celebrate 10 years of winemaking. This special event is part of the 2025 Forage & Feast Festival in partnership with the Central Highlands Growers and Producers Hub.
Dinner will feature matched wines, including back vintages, paired with a delicious menu crafted by guest chef, Fushy from Hamilton. The menu will highlight fresh lamb from Greenacres Biodynamics, bread by Blue Wren Bakery, eggs from Green Eggs, as well as produce from several other local growers and members of the Central Highlands Growers & Producers Hub. It’s a great chance to enjoy delicious food, great wine, and toast to a decade of Black & Ginger Wines.
Come along, share a meal, and raise a glass to the next 10 years!
Full Degustation + Matched Wines: $130
Full Dinner Only (for non-wine drinkers and designated drivers): $100
Other drink options available, wines by the glass, beer and non-alcoholic.
