About the event

Fleurieu Food Festival: Residential Culinary Weekend (Chapel Hill Wine Retreat)
Held as part of the Fleurieu Food Festival, this one-off event brings together our passionate culinary voices for an intimate, indulgent, and unforgettable experience.

The Culinary Team

Jackie Mazzocato, founder of Fleurieu Food & Wine, curates and hosts the retreat. With a strong focus on flavour and a love of teaching, Jackie leads guests through the art of stretching mozzarella and crafting beautiful pastas to complement the weekend’s signature dishes.

Stephen Edwards, acclaimed chef and guest presenter, brings his experience and expertise to A Cut Above: The Perfect Steak & Sides. Guests will learn how to select, cook, and serve premium cuts with precision, working alongside Stephen in a relaxed, hands-on masterclass focused on fire, balance, and technique.

Two nights of luxury accommodation at The Retreat at Chapel Hill

A welcome hamper of Fleurieu produce and a bottle of Chapel Hill wine

All meals included, with Chapel Hill wine pairings at every sitting
