Tidings and Tastings Wine Dinner

Café Momentum and Chef Aaron Collins invite you to our “Tidings & Tastings” Wine Dinner. This dinner will feature five courses that are inspired by classic seasonal favorites with a Café Momentum twist and paired with South Australia’s premiere winemakers from Penfold’s Cellars. Wear your ugliest Christmas sweater and our interns will choose the best one! The winner will get 2 free spots at a 2026 Wine Dinner of their choosing! Our guest speaker that evening will be RNDC’s Treasury Wine Specialist, Brian Pack. $125 per person, Christmas sweaters/clothes encouraged!

Join us for an inspiring evening with exceptional cuisine, warm community and positive impact for our youth.
