Chardonnay / Pinot Noir Dinners at Kenzan
what students are saying
There is something quite special about enjoying fine wine from Riedel glassware alongside beautifully prepared Japanese cuisine.
Conveniently located in Collins Place in Melbourne's CBD, Kenzan has been a favourite of locals, business executives and families for more than 40 years, earning a reputation as one of Melbourne's most respected Japanese restaurants.
Held in the intimate private Tatami room, these dinners have become a signature event. The evening features Champagne on arrival, followed by three outstanding Chardonnays, three Pinot Noirs and a beautifully aged Sauternes, all matched with five individually plated dishes.
The combination of exceptional wines, refined Japanese cuisine and an intimate setting creates a dining experience unlike any other, offering the opportunity to discover new flavour combinations, textures and perspectives on food and wine matching.
