An Evening of Provenance and Craftsmanship: The 2025 Chairman’s List Dinner
By chandelier light in the private Barrel Room, guests savoured rare pours and a privileged first taste of Optume. The 2025 Chairman’s List Dinner gathered Levantine Hill’s most loyal members, collectors and friends of the Estate for an evening that honoured our philosophy- provenance, craftsmanship and company.
The evening began in true Levantine Hill style, with select guests arriving by helicopter to the Estate’s private helipad—an arrival befitting the occasion and the company it keeps. From the moment guests stepped onto the grounds, the rhythm of the night unfolded with considered grace and quiet grandeur.
Held within the heart of our underground Barrel Room, the setting reflected the balance of elegance and restraint that defines Levantine Hill. Beneath hand-blown crystal chandeliers, guests were welcomed to an intimate dining experience where every detail - from the curated menu to the measured pour - was orchestrated to mirror the precision of our winemaking craft.
Chief Winemaker, Paul Bridgeman, guided guests through an exceptional flight of wines, including a pre-release tasting of the 2022 Optume Chardonnay and 2021 Optume Shiraz . Created beyond the constraints of site selection and cost, Optume represents the pinnacle of our pursuit—to reveal the purest expression of cool-climate Yarra Valley terroir. Paul’s reflections on each vintage offered rare insight into the dedication, patience and artistry that define Levantine Hill and the winemaking craftsmanship we are proud of.
As the evening unfolded, conversation and laughter intertwined with the fragrance of oak and wine. Familiar faces and new acquaintances shared stories of discovery, deepening the sense of community that sits at the heart of the Estate.
For Levantine Hill, the Chairman’s List Dinner is more than an annual gathering—it is a tribute to those who continue to share in our unwavering pursuit of perfection. To our members, collectors and friends—thank you for being part of our story.
