Si Vintners is made up of two qualified winemakers (husband and wife) who in September of 2010 purchased a 30 acre estate with 20 acres under vine (majority planted in 1978). The property is situated just south of the Margaret River Township in an area called Rosa Glen. Sarah and Iwo are doing incredibly unique things in Western Australia. "Since purchasing the property, the vineyard has been farmed 100% organic/biodynamic. All our wines are made without any of the usual additives used in commercial winemaking, apart from a small sulphur addition at bottling. We bottle our wines without fining or filtration as we believe that these processes take away aromas and flavours from the wine. We believe a little sediment in the bottom of the bottle only creates a more authentic wine. Our motivation is to hand craft natural wines, which are expressive of the vineyard and sub-region." Meeka will be pairing 5 glasses of wine with 6 courses including Leah's delectable desserts. Wines include the official launch of "Bella" Chardonnay, current and aged Cabernet Sauvignon plus more that will be matched perfectly with food created by Head Chef/Owner Leah Clarke. Save the date Thursday 31st October Meet and greet with the winemaker from 6.00pm with 6.30pm start $90.00 per person Bookings can be made by calling Meeka 93811800 or through our online booking form. http://www.meekarestaurant.com.au/  Please join us for a very special evening with Rob Diletti from the wonderful winery Castle Rock
