Join the MCG for an exceptional evening of fine wine, food and conversation in the famous MCC Long Room, at an event usually reserved for MCG Network members.

Celebrate the release of the 2025 Penfolds Collection alongside fellow wine enthusiasts and industry guests – all set against the backdrop of one of Melbourne's most historic and iconic venues.

Your evening will include entertainment, a three course dinner and wine pairings guided by Penfolds' Winemaker, Kym Schroeter.

Kym's father, uncle and brother were all Penfolds winemakers, so it was almost inevitable he would join the Penfolds family. Kym joined in 1987 as a laboratory assistant before moving on to red winemaking in 1995 and white winemaking in 2003. Kym has been instrumental in crafting a series of expressions which are renowned for their quality and style.

His Reserve Bin A Chardonnay 2009 was awarded 'Best White Wine in the World' at the 2011 International Wine Challenge. Kym himself was also honoured at the same event, being named as one of the top three white winemakers in the world. At the 2015 awards Penfolds went on to be named 'International White Winemaker of the Year'.

Inclusions:

  • Canapes on arrival
  • 3-course menu designed by Guy Grossi
  • Matched Penfold wines including wines from their icons portfolio
  • Special MCG Network only wine offers
  • Hosted by Penfolds' Winemaker Kym Schroeter
