Eight (8)

8 a shared moment — rare, intentional, and quietly unforgettable.

In collaboration with Chef, Sandor Palmai we warmly welcome you to Eight (8), an exclusive personal dining and Mirus wine tasting experience for 8 guests in Wonderground’s private 100 year old, Mirus Room.

8 is both symbolic and intentional, representing cycles, community and connection.

8 is a gathering that unfolds slowly, thoughtfully, and with purpose, small enough to feel deeply personal, yet expansive enough to create collective connection.

Sandor presents a seasonal menu inspired by the Barossa landscape and its producers. Perfectly matched to Mirus wines, the shared and plated courses are served with understated precision, allowing each dish to tell a story of origin, intention and craft. Our guests are thoughtfully guided through the Mirus wine experience throughout this immersive gathering.

8 extends the creative philosophy of Wonderground and Mirus Wines — where food becomes another artistic medium, and the dining experience is shaped by connection, place and art.

This is a rare and private gathering — elevated, immersive and deeply personal.

To book Eight, it is one booking of $2500 which includes up to 8 guests including all food and beverages, no payments part-there-of.

An intimate experience conceived for connection, continuity and quiet exclusivity
