If you’ve heard the announcement that the worldwide epicurean phenomenon Dîner en Blanc will be returning to Brisbane again in 2014, no doubt your whitest attire is already at the drycleaner and your registration is in. Now you can kick off that Pavlovian conditioning response as we reveal the full menu for this year’s white pop-up picnic. Once again, Dalton Hospitality will be nourishing dinner guests with gourmet picnic baskets, boasting delights like 24-hour half French baguettes with Pepe Saya butter, a charcuterie selection, local Australian cheeses, duck rilette with Dijon mustard and Valrhona chocolate pots with strawberries. Two different basket options are available, as well as vegetarian alternatives. As for the refreshments, South Burnett winemaker Clovely Estate will be filling glasses for the third year in a row, with offerings ranging from semillon sauvignon blanc, verdelho, reserve range chardonnay, semillon chardonnay and pinot gris, to shiraz, cabernet merlot, sangiovese, grenache shiraz mourvèdre and reserve range merlot, as well as a sparkling shiraz, brut reserve range sparkling and a botrytis semillon. Once you’ve secured your Dîner en Blanc Brisbane ticket, log in and head to the online store and Clovely Estate website to book your basket and beverages.
