Festive Dinner - Monday December 8, 2008

We have planned a stylish event in this superb venue, with an outstanding view of Parliament Hill, Wellington Street and Portage Bridge decorated with thousands of colourful lights for the Festive Season.

Taste 5 great wines - two from our cellar, and three from the Vintages release of October 11th. Our reception wine will be a favourite: Sparkling Shiraz, then a fine Riesling to complement the soup. Two choices - a Chardonnay and a Pinot Noir - for you to decide which better accompanies the chicken main course. And then we finish off with an exciting Fortified Shiraz to enhance the dessert.

When: Monday December 8, 2008 at 6:30 pm

Where: Crowne Plaza Hotel, 101 Lyon Street, Panorama room

Cost to members - $75
Cost to Non members - $85

Spaces are limited so please hurry-up and register now by emailing events@awsottawa.com

Please remember, the 5-day cancellation policy is in effect.
