InterContinental Sanctuary Cove Resort
- Written by Nicole Crowley
Renowned for delivering exceptional wine and dining experiences, InterContinental Sanctuary Cove Resort adds to its collection of Insider Experiences, partnering with winemaking family heavyweights, Amadio Wines, for a Resort-first wine dinner hosted by third-generation winemaker, Danniel Amadio.
The exclusive evening will be held on Saturday 13 August inside the Resort's signature restaurant, The Fireplace, with a limited number of tickets available. Guests will be guided through the wine journey by Amadio CEO and winemaker, Danniel Amadio, Resort sommelier, David Stevens-Castro and QLD Amadio State Manager, Allan Spadijer, to showcase a series of hand-selected wines from the family legacy. Most notably, the Amadio NV Grande Reserve Sparkling Brut, voted 'Best of the Best' by Winestate Annual Magazine*, will be on show alongside the Amadio 2007 Reserve Merlot, widely acclaimed as one of the best Merlots in Australia.
“Exceptional wine and top quality produce is the Amadio family legacy and it gives us great pride to collaborate with InterContinental to deliver this to guests in a unique setting” said Danniel Amadio, Amadio CEO and winemaker. “Our NV Grande Reserve Sparkling Brut is one of the only Sparklings that undergoes such an extensive maturation period (8 years) prior to its release and it's this shared passion for the very best produce that makes it a wonderful collaboration.”
Complementing the wine tasting will be a tailored three-course menu by recently appointed Executive Chef, Andreas Imre, featuring prosciutto wrapped quail with cherry gastrique & nasturtium, and slow-cooked beef short rib followed by passionfruit cheesecake, elderflower jelly, guava sorbet and raspberry coulie.
The wine dinner will form part of the Sanctuary Cove Winter Wine fair from Friday 12 August to Sunday 14 August in The Marina Village where you'll discover guest winemakers, wine panels, product sampling and live entertainment.

Tickets are $99.00 per person with full pre-payment required.
