Before it plays host to an exclusive AFL Gather Round party, Penfolds has unveiled the revamped sister venue of one of the state’s best restaurants. See the photos.

The sister venue of one of the state’s top restaurants has relaunched following a major revamp, unveiling a fresh look and an elevated menu.

Inspired by the world’s best wine bars, Magill Estate Kitchen has reopened its doors, showcasing in-built booth seating, two-seat tables and group dining options.

The menu has also been overhauled with new dishes including Mayura Station dry-aged

Tomahawk steak by the kilo, lobster with bernaise and a selection of pasta dishes – made fresh in house – such as Pappadelle Ragu and Pasta alla Norma.

For more budget conscious diners, old favourites remain like the classic Fish Sando and Mayura Station Rump Cap Bresasola.

A new deli counter will also be open daily from 8.30am, serving up an array of grab-and-go meals and coffee.

It’s a big week for Penfolds Magill Estate, which will play host to AFL’s biggest names at an exclusive VIP dinner on Wednesday night ahead of Gather Round, which kicks off on Thursday.

Director and chef, Scott Huggins, said they are excited to welcome guests back to Magill Estate Restaurant’s more relaxed sister eatery.

“Every dish on this brand-new menu tells a story, highlighting some of the best South Australian producers and complimenting an extensive collection of Penfolds’ best wines,” he said.

Penfolds’ flagship wine, Grange, will be available by the glass, alongside aperitifs and a selection of cocktails.

For the first time, Magill Estate Kitchen will be open into the evening on Fridays and Saturdays, offering guests a more relaxed setting for dinner.
