Pikes Wine Lunch

Family owned, operated and making great wine since 1984, Pikes Wine was first established by brothers Andrew and Neil Pike on a 100 hectare on the slopes of the Polish Hill River area of the Clare Valley.

While best known for their Riesling they also produce an excellent Shiraz, and Cabernet for 35 years and have 20 different grape varieties planted on our estate, producing a wide range of wine styles to suit all tastes.

Join us with Jamie Pike for a 4 course meal accompanied by Pikes Wines at the Kensi.
