One of Tasmania's newest cellar doors has pulled of a coup by signing one of the island state's star chefs.
Caledon Estate this week announced that chef Paul Foreman will be joining the team at its recently opened Richmond cellar door from Saturday, April 26.
Foreman will be in the kitchen Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays producing a menu of share plates that will be designed to match the Caledon wines.
Foreman, formerly of Gondwana, Marque IV, and Kalis Group Hotels, brings a wealth of local knowledge and experience to the kitchen and has built relationships with Tasmanian producers and growers.
Daytime dining will be the initial focus at the cellar door with the possibility of dinner service in the future. The Caledon cellar door is also currently taking bookings for weddings and other events.
Those visiting the Coal River Valley and the Caledon cellar door will enjoy an architecturally designed building that showcases sandstone from the property.
The large windows give all seats an extensive view from kunanyi/Mt Wellington over the Coal River Valley. The building features an open fire, ensuring comfort whatever the Tasmanian winter weather brings.
I've tried a couple of the wines - and they are impressive.
For more information and bookings, visitors can call the vineyard on 0490 498 776 with an online booking system coming soon.
