Windy Point Restuarant Justin Miles Panna Cotta

On Friday, 10 August, we held a Commander Seasonal Lunch at Cellar Door. We were excited to have Chef Justin Miles from Windy Point Restaurant as our guest chef at Elderton Wines. He created a delicious 5-course lunch which matched beautifully with our current release and back vintage wines, selected by Allister from the family museum.

Dessert was the fabulous panna cotta pictured above, matched with our 2016 Golden Semillon. Perfect!

Thanks to Justin, you can make this at home, as he has provided the recipe for us to share:
