When Chef met Winemaker it was kismet.
Both sustainably sourced produce – driven. Both handcrafting. Conjuring from raw ingredients food and drink that transforms your experience on the plate and in the glass.
Plus they just get along!
Now at long last Rob Mack and Mark Best bring their decades of skill, accolades and delicious indulgence to one night soaring above the busy day-to-day. To be a haven. To slow down, savour and converse with friends new and treasured.
Their skills become your ultimate sky high wine dinner.
Revolve from 81 floors above Sydney streets to see the four seasons – the City, the Harbour, and the vast Regional inland.
Plan to indulge in three incredible courses, made by none other than the Young Chef of the Year, Ken Kwok Lee.
Make new friends with your fellow guests in the intimate private dining room.
Just 17 others plus Aphelion winemaker Rob Mack will share this evening with you.
Your glasses will be charged with a parade of five acclaimed Aphelion wines, culminating with our ultimate expression of Grenache, the Rapture.
Welcome to a unique experience that combines unbeatable Sydney views, sparkling hospitality, and time to reconnect with great company, the mastery of skill in your glass and on your plate.
