Guest Selector ➺ Alex Kirkwood
Dinner Party 6-Pack
With a passion for accumulating knowledge and hands-on skills, hospitality was always going to be the main game for Sommelier Alex Kirkwood even from an early age.
Over the past 15 years Alex has proven himself time and time again within the hospitality hall of fame. His most recent venture has seen him take on the role of General Manager and Head Sommelier at Sydney's Aria. Owned by renowned chef, Matt Moran and Overlooking the Iconic Sydney harbour bridge- Aria has been an institute for fine dining in Australia for over 20 years running.
Alex has worked with some of Australia’s most awarded wine programs, notably two-hatted Rockpool Bar and Grill, the picturesque three-hatted Quay and has been shaping the Aria wine program since 2016.
A Night To Remember
A passion for vinous treats has led Alex across the world to some of his favourite wine regions to better understand and discover local offerings. Not to mention, chasing the world's great beverages leads you to some rather incredible locations and characters within the industry.
