A Fleurieu long lunch with Merilli1885

The afternoon brings together Merilli Angus beef, seasonal Fleurieu produce, Italian-inspired cooking and wines made here in McLaren Vale.

Merilli1885 Fleurieu long lunch with Smidge Wines

Food, farming and wine from the Fleurieu

The four-course menu will be created by Michelin-trained chef Luca Guiotto of Aromi Dining, with Merilli Angus featured throughout.

Matt will pour the matched Smidge wines and talk through why each wine was chosen, how it was made and what it brings to the table.

It is a natural fit for Smidge. The lunch is grounded in provenance, practical craftsmanship and the connection between farming, food and wine.
