On Monday Provenance won Regional Wine List of the Year, which honours a wine list outside Melbourne that displays a diverse selection that complements the restaurant's food and style.

“Owners Michael Ryan and his partner, winemaker Jeanette Henderson, intelligently showcase the wines of their surrounding region, adding carefully chosen examples from France, Italy and Spain to give weight and context to the local selections,” judges said.

“And at a time when many restaurants have begun dabbling in sake, it's a treat to find a list written by people who have invested so much time and money investigating Japan's sake culture, and know how to match sake to food.”

Provenance retained two Chef’s Hats for the sixth year.

Patricia's Table at Brown Brothers gained its first Chef's Hat while Tani Eat & Drink, Simones at Bright and The Terrace at All Saints Wahgunyah retained hats.
