We are honoured to welcome Michael Hill Smith AM MW, one of Australia’s most influential wine figures, to Ziggy Green for a special wine paired tasting dinner celebrating cool-climate expression, site-driven winemaking and modern Australian fine wine.

A co-founder of Shaw + Smith, Tolpuddle Vineyard and MMAD Vineyard, Michael has played a defining role in shaping Australia’s contemporary wine landscape. His work is guided by a belief in vineyard character, balance and longevity, with a focus on exceptional cool-climate regions including the Adelaide Hills, Tasmania and McLaren Vale. From internationally acclaimed Chardonnay and Pinot Noir to historic old-vine Grenache, Shiraz and Chenin Blanc, his wines are recognised for precision, purity and age-worthy elegance.

The evening offers a rare opportunity to explore these iconic projects side by side through a curated tasting menu and premium wine pairings, with insight into vineyard stewardship, regional identity and the evolution of Australian fine wine.
