A Fleurieu long lunch with Merilli1885
On Saturday 29 August, Matt Wenk will be pouring Smidge wines at a strictly limited long lunch at Merilli1885.
The afternoon brings together Merilli Angus beef, seasonal Fleurieu produce, Italian-inspired cooking and wines made here in McLaren Vale.
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.
