Learn - Modern Food and Drink Pairing

Come on in. This is learning at its most immersive: sessions led by top sommeliers and winemakers that cover the basics and happily explore more nuanced elements too. Modern food and drink pairing, how hops influence beer, sommelier secrets and winemaking basics are in the spotlight. Come with questions and leave inspired.

Maybe you once learned the basics of food and drink pairing. But it’s also possible that guidance came from an era that assumed lavish meals (and some fairly obscure ingredients) were the norm. 

Let’s make it modern. 

Join hospitality leader Hannah Green and winemaker Adam Foster for this deep dive. We’re talking matches like fried chicken and chardonnay – plus a look at beer matching too. 

The Melbourne-based Green is an award-winning sommelier and owner of two restaurants: Etta and Brunswick East newcomer Daphne. Known for stellar service, she focuses on creating elevated neighbourhood venues, curated wine lists and a sense of warm generosity woven through every element of the guest experience. 
 
A lifelong interest in food and wine led Foster first to professional kitchens including Daylesford’s The Lake House, then to work as a sommelier and ultimately into the vineyard. Today he is based in the Heathcote district in central Victoria, working with its cool-climate shiraz in his label Syrahmi and releasing whites under his Garden of Earthy Delights offshoot.  

Explore the concepts behind food and drink pairing in a way that builds confidence, inspires culinary adventure and can also revolutionise your home repertoire.
