Fleurieu Food Festival: Residential Culinary Weekend (Chapel Hill)

Experience the ultimate foodie escape in McLaren Vale with a 2-night/2-day residential cooking program that epitomises luxury, flavour, and connection. Hosted by Fleurieu Food & Wine in partnership with The Retreat at Chapel Hill Wine, this exclusive event invites guests to immerse themselves in the very best of the Fleurieu Peninsula's food and wine culture.

Set against a backdrop of rolling vineyards and sweeping views, you'll enjoy a hands-on gastronomic adventure that celebrates regional produce, world-class wines, and the joy of learning new culinary skills.

Throughout the weekend, guests will be guided by Jackie Mazzocato, founder of Fleurieu Food & Wine. With a deep passion for sharing the art of food and flavour, Jackie brings her experience, craft, and creativity into every class, making each session as inspiring as it is practical. Whether you're learning to create mozzarella from scratch, crafting pasta just like Nonna, or perfecting the finishing touches on a shared table feast, Jackie's approachable teaching style invites every guest to explore and enjoy the kitchen.

Included is luxury accommodation for two nights at the Retreat at Chapel Hill, a welcome dinner reception, continental breakfast on two days, and three meals featuring the results of the gourmet cooking experiences.
