Windowrie Lunch Long in the estate gardens.
Tickets for the eagerly awaited ‘Long Lunch’, hosted by Canowindra’s Windowrie Estate, have been released. After a two-year hiatus due to COVID-19, Windowrie’s O’Dea family are excited to once again adorn their garden and welcome guests to enjoy a Japanese inspired lunch matched with wines from the vineyard.
Set in the beautiful gardens of the Windowrie homestead, the O’Dea family with winemaker Anthony D’Onise, will gather to welcome guests with generous long tables filled with Japanese inspired dishes, set alongside the winery’s award-winning wines.
“We have been exporting our wines to Japan for 20 years, making fantastic friends along the way,” says Windowrie’s Jason O’Dea.
“It has been one of the family’s most enjoyable and rewarding relationships, so we thought it high time to celebrate it,” continued Jason.
“Along with live music, the Japanese inspired meal will be prepared by the very talented chef Angela McCormick. The dishes will be matched to our range of wines from our Windowrie, Pig in the House and Natural Wine Co. ranges,” said Jason.
“It has been too long since we hosted our Long Lunch, and a lot has happened in that time. Not only has Covid-19 stopped us entertaining guests in the garden, we lost our father David last year,” explained Mr O’Dea.
“This Long Lunch will be the first without him, so he will be remembered at the lunch. It was one of David’s dreams to establish the vineyard and garden, and he was in his element when hosting these lunches.”
Tickets to the Windowrie Long Lunch are limited, so guests are encouraged to book as soon as possible so as not to be disappointed. The Long Lunch will be held on Saturday 29th October 2022 from 12 noon at the Windowrie Homestead, Windowrie Road, Canowindra. Tickets are $195 all-inclusive and bookings are essential.
