Ultimate Winery Experiences Australia

Ultimate Wineries excel at AGFG Chef Hat Awards

We are thrilled to announce that the restaurants of our Ultimate Winery Experiences Australia members have attained remarkable success at the prestigious 2024 Australian Good Food Guide (AGFG) Chefs Hat Awards.

Since 1982, AGFG Chef Hats have celebrated talented chefs nationwide. Awarded through meticulous assessments by AGFG-appointed inspectors dining anonymously, results are shaped by diner reviews and public opinions. Dedicated solely to food, inspectors use a French rating system, assigning a score out of 20 based on key aspects like ingredients, taste, presentation, technique, value, and consistency. No commentary accompanies the evaluations; a straightforward rating reflects the culinary excellence being recognised.
