diners with fresh, creative and mouth-watering gastronomic

signature dishes such as the Taste of the Barossa Platter, Lyndoch
Butchers Block and Terrarossa Beef Rib Eye on the Bone. The menu

sumptuous desserts, and makes use of a vast array of local produce
from smoked salmon to rabbit, duck, egg noodles, olives, breads,
cheeses and more. Choosing dessert isn’t easy, with enticing
offerings such as Apple & Cinnamon Bread & Butter Pudding; Chilled
Lime Souffle; and Vanilla, Prune & Armagnac Tart. Meanwhile, the
lip-smacking Degustation offers a specially selected journey
through the tantalising flavours and unique nuances of Barossa
cuisine – diners will be impressed by the Shredded local Duck on a
