The evening will start with a welcome wine and amuse-bouche, crafted by CRMR’s Wine Director Brad Royale, followed by a three-course dinner prepared by Chef Gareth Colville and his culinary team at The Lake House. Each of the three courses will be paired with Chardonnay Il Marzocco 2016, Grifi Rosso di Toscana 2011, and Vino Nobile Grande Annate 2012 – all hailing from the revered winery of the Vino Nobile di Montepulciano appellation.
To complement the evening, guests will be able to enjoy the stunning lake views while perched above Lake Bonavista, and the rustic elegance of this beloved Calgary venue. There are only 36 tickets available for the engaging evening of food and libations. Tickets can be purchased online through the Eventbrite link below.
