This Friday, July 11th, The Fairmont Empress Hotel in Victoria will welcome renowned artist Robert Bateman and Summerhill Pyramid Winery for a 5-course winemaker’s dinner.
Benefitting the Robert Bateman Centre’s education program the dinner will offer guests the first opportunity to sample Summerhill’s new organic 2010 vintage “Grasslands” red wines. The collection of three 100% organic reds crafted by winemaker Eric von Krosigk, features a high-resolution reproduction of an original Robert Bateman painting on the label.
The five-course menu from Executive Chef Morgan Wilson will be led by Summerhill CEO Ezra Cipes and Proprietor Stephen Cipes. The artist will be speaking during the dinner and will be available to sign bottles purchased at the event.
After the dinner the “Grasslands” collection will be available for purchase direct from Summerhill Pyramid Winery.
