SA’s Big Winners From This Week’s Food & Wine Awards

South Australia won big in last night’s two food and wine awards: Gourmet Traveller Wine List of the Year Awards and Savour Australia’s Restaurant & Catering HOSTPLUS Awards for Excellence.

There were two massive food and wine award shows this week – Gourmet Traveller Wine List of the Year Awards and Savour Australia’s Restaurant & Catering HOSTPLUS Awards for Excellence – and some of our favourite South Australian food and wine businesses won big!

The Gourmet Traveller Wine List of the Year Awards cover the best restaurants, bars, pubs and clubs in which to explore the most exciting wines, spirits and beers from home and abroad. Their panel of expert judges have cast their eyes over the nation’s top lists and South Australia has garnered two great accolades. Not only did Patrick White from Hardy’s Verandah Restaurant win the Best Listing of SA Wines award, but Lindes Lane down at Rundle Mall got awarded 3 Glasses by the panel.
