Rowlee Event

Apericena: Italian Party at Rowlee

October 25, 2025
$75 per person
The Stables - Rowlee Estate

Join us at Rowlee for Apericena — a vibrant Italian-inspired evening of food, wine, and music at The Stables. Chef Erick and the Rowlee Dining and Bar team will serve up a generous spread of Italian bites, perfectly paired with Spritzes, Negronis and a rare Methuselah of our cellar-aged Nebbia. As the sun dips behind the vines, dance into the night under the stars with a live DJ set.

A night to gather, celebrate, and indulge — the Italian way.

What is Apericena?

Apericena is a combination of the Italian words "aperitivo" (appetiser) and "cena" (dinner). It refers to a social custom where people gather in the early evening to enjoy drinks and a buffet of food, often replacing a full dinner. Essentially, it's a happy hour with a more substantial food offering than a typical aperitivo.
