Sweet violet is the flower of Pinot Noir, the apple blossom of Chardonnay and the delicate peach blossom of Viognier. The Creation Viognier is all about freshness, \u201cIt conjures up the image of Prince Charming walking through the forest, picking wild strawberries,\u201d stated Carolyn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This stimulated an animated conversation about the aromas of ginger (which elevates senses), violet leaves (soothing) and vetiver (tranquil) was interrupted by the serving of the macadamia nut crepe, topped with a carrot flower and mandarin. The dairy-free milk tart filling showcases the philosophy of the menu \u2013 eloquently explained by head chef Eleanor, \u201cIt is gluten-free and 80% plant-based,\u201d she said. Carolyn expanded on their philosophy, \u201cAromatics are all about wellness. If you feel good when you leave, you want to come back. We support local and the community.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dineplan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/collage-final.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.dineplan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/collage-final-1024x469.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-602 lazyload\" width=\"828\" height=\"379\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dineplan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/collage-final-1024x469.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.dineplan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/collage-final-300x137.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dineplan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/collage-final-768x352.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dineplan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/collage-final-1536x703.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.dineplan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/collage-final.jpg 2033w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 828px) 100vw, 828px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 828px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 828\/379;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>The Scent of Dried Apricot and Peach, and Banksia Rose<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each touch point of the experience was memorable, as the intricacies of the perfume of wine, and ingredients, were exposed.

Yet another indication of the warm, hospitable essence of this estate.
