Underground Dining at Seppelt Great Western

A dining experience beneath the surface.

Underground Dining at Seppelt Great Western invites you into one of Australia’s most remarkable wine settings, where heritage, atmosphere and regional flavour come together deep below the vines.

The evening begins in the Shaft House with a glass of Seppelt wine and a relaxed charcuterie service featuring local cheeses, smallgoods and seasonal accompaniments. It is a chance to settle in, take in the surrounds and ease into the night before making your way beneath.

From there, you will be guided into the historic Drives, a labyrinth of hand-dug underground cellars dating back to the 1860s. Cool, quiet and steeped in history, this is where the evening truly begins.

Led by Executive Chef Bryden Buckingham, the dinner features a chef’s choice three-course menu shaped by the season and the best of the region. Bryden’s produce-first approach brings generosity, character and a strong sense of place to the table, with each course thoughtfully paired with Seppelt wines.

Seated together beneath the surface, surrounded by the very wines being poured, this is a dining experience that feels intimate, atmospheric and unmistakably Great Western.

More than a dinner, Underground Dining is a celebration of regional produce, historic cellars and the craft of bringing people together around food and wine.

Make a weekend of it and explore the broader Grampians Wine Region, with cellar doors, mountain landscapes and quiet moments waiting to be discovered.
