The Good Life with Professor A.C. Grayling and Friends

We are delighted to welcome pre-eminent British philosopher, Professor A.C. Grayling, to Voyager Estate for a special lunch and panel discussion on 'The Good Life'.

The author of over thirty books of philosophy, biography, history of ideas, and essays, Professor Grayling CBE MA DPhil (Oxon) FRSA FRSL is the Principal of Northeastern University London and its Professor of Philosophy. He is a columnist in the Guardian, The Times and has contributed to many leading newspapers and radio programs in the UK, US and Australia. 

Joining him for this thought-provoking discussion are facilitator and broadcaster Meri Fatin, artist and author Tineke Van der Eecken, and Voyager Estate Chief Winemaker, Tim Shand. Together, they’ll explore questions such as: What role do wine, food, and travel play in a Good Life? How does indulgence coexist with a Good Life? And how do we preserve the beauty of Margaret River through wine and food?

Enjoy a glass of sparkling on arrival before settling in for a shared lunch in our award-winning Restaurant, where pristine local produce and certified organic wines set the scene for an afternoon of insightful conversation. All the good things.
