St. Hugo Garden to Table-Erlebnis und Mittagessen

What an amazing wine and food experience at St Hugo cellar door. Surrounded by beautiful vineyards our small group was taken on a tour of the grounds with a bottomless glass of French champagne before being taken into the restaurant for the most divine five course degustation meal accompanied by St Hugo‘s most superb wines. Our table backed immediately onto the kitchen so we could watch head chef Simon Hicks and his team create delicious plates for us to devour. Simon was extremely generous with his time and meaningful chats about his professional life, the restaurant game, wine, and everything in between! I cannot wait to go to St Hugo Vineyards and cellar door again. Highly recommend!! I give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

St Hugo’s “Garden to Table Experience & Lunch” is for those who seek more than a meal. It started with a walk through the Kitchen Garden where chef Simon Hicks talked to us about the produce and the vines. Once inside, we were seated within arm’s reach of the kitchen and watched Simon and his team in action. We were able to engage with the chef throughout the meal, gaining insight into techniques, ingredients, inspiration and with lots of laughs along the way. With a profound dedication to seasonal and locally-sourced ingredients, he emphasises uncomplicated dishes. The sommelier guided us through an impeccable selection of wines, each enhancing and elevating the dish it accompanied. From the moment we arrived, it was clear this wasn’t going to be just a lunch; it was a curated experience that blended food, wine, and storytelling.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Garden experience with Chef Simon, entertaining and informative. Thank you also to Sonya and Ruby for taking care of our day!
