Together with North Fremantle restaurant Propeller, Old Bridge Cellars is hosting a long table dinner to say farewell to one of the most humble, kind and gentle winemakers in WA, The Duke of Duke’s Vineyard. After an action-packed 22 years, The Duke – now 81 years old – is passing the baton over to Ben Cane, former winemaker at Cape Mentelle.
As part of this farewell event, guests will enjoy a four-course dining experience courtesy of Propeller Chef Kurt Sampson, designed for sharing and feasting. The food will be paired with renowned wines from Duke’s collection selected by Old Bridge Cellars, including the Sparkling Riesling, the Magpie Hill Riesling, the Magpie Hill Cabernet, the Magpie Hill Shiraz and the Sparking Rosé.
Guests will also hear from The Duke himself about his wine-making career and what it means to him to be handing over his beloved vineyard, as well as special comments from Old Bridge Cellars’ Jay Beeson and Chef Sampson.
The event will be hosted at Propeller North Fremantle on Thursday 16 June, 6.30pm. Tickets are $135/head and can be purchased here.
