ANNOUNCING THE BLACK TIE & GUMBOOT TRUFFLE HUNT & DINNER 2024
As the winter chill fills the air and the sniff of snow looms deep in the horizon, the Borrodell team prepares for the most decadent event of the year - the Black Tie and Gumboot Truffle Hunt and Dinner!
It’s time to dress up to the nines, go hunting for Borrodell’s Black Perigord truffles, then retire to the private underground cellar where Borrodell’s special guest chef, alongside the onsite team, create a five-course luxury degustation truffle feast. This is an iconic Orange event and is even listed by media personality, Lyndey Milan OAM, as one of her top 3 Australia-wide food destinations.
Borrodell has the oldest truffle oak trees on mainland Australia and – as with all quality produce – freshness is key to unlocking all the nuances of a truffle’s flavour profile. Guests are guided through the 30 year old truffle trees to search for truffles with the truffle dogs, then retire to the warmth of the candle-lit wine cellar, complete with a glorious fireplace, for a dinner prepared by some of the finest chefs in the country.
Every year, the Black Tie and Gumboot Truffle Hunt and Dinner hosts a charity auction, with esteemed art works, gourmet packages and freshly harvested black truffles up for grabs, with proceeds going to the charity of the chef's choice.
Guests travel from near and far to be a part of this spectacular and memorable evening. This is a winter wonderland treat where you are expected to not only glam-up but rug up! So, dust off the ball gowns, spruce up the top hats, add some sparkle to the gumboots. Guests are not only encouraged to dress like they’re attending the Oscars – but there are also prizes for the best gumboot! So get out the hot glue and paste those diamontes to your favourite pair to be in the running for a prize!
Borrodell would be delighted if you could join us for the occasion.
