"Preston begins on Western Australia's wild southwest coast, where abalone is farmed on living ocean reefs and generations of winemakers have helped shape one of Australia's best-known food regions. He walks through heritage hand-pruned vineyards, meets the people behind the region's celebrated produce and cooks marron with foraged coastal herbs on a remote cape overlooking the ocean."

"Preston spends time with the people continuing the Barossa's rich food and wine traditions. He visits Adelaide's Cheesefest, meets a world-class butter maker and explores the region's renowned vineyards before creating a dish inspired by the local produce."

"Preston heads to the Fleurieu Peninsula for episode three, where McLaren Vale's vineyards meet the sea. Here, he gathers pipis from the shallows, visits a family-run garlic farm and cooks roast lamb beneath a stunning sunset. This episode reflects the close connection between the Fleurieu Peninsula's coastline, farmland and vineyards, and the ingredients they produce."
