Why all the buzz about VIGNERONS SCHMOLZER AND BRO Why all the buzz about VIGNERONS SCHMOLZER AND BROWN?From a wine lover’s perspective, it’s one of the better value wines today. VS&B make easy-drinking wines that deliver bang for the buck yet are uncompromising and outstanding and heralded for good reason. Tessa and Jer are a couple on the move, and their wines and time are in high demand.Come enjoy dinner, wine, and a pleasant conversation to learn more about this dynamic duo’s journey and future.@thediningroomredhill at Lancemore Lindenderry will host this exclusive one-off event. For those who haven’t had a chance to experience The Dining Room, think of it as a standout regional dining experience designed by the team at Hecker Guthrie.The most remarkable thing about this place is its brooding dark walls, artwork, floor-to-ceiling windows inviting the outside in and the curved-back chairs, all aiding in a cosy vibe and ignited by the open fire.Join us on Saturday 9th July 2022 @ 6:30pm. If it will be anything like the Tattinger evening held back in April, you’d be hard-pressed to find a better food and wine experience in Melbourne that weekend.To learn more, click on our bio.#lovethepen #australianwine #morningtonpeninsula #lindenderry #redhill #winetasting #foodandwine #winelovers #winery #winecountry #winenight
