Mandy applies the art and science of food pairing to ensure that there is an appropriate contemporary, estate grown and made wine to match each dish. No matter whether you choose to dine from the a la carte menu, partake in a picnic or order a gourmet hamper to take away, the same attention to detail is applied, to ensure an excellent experience.
