Vancouver, BC | Join Maenam’s Chef Angus An and sommelier Kurtis Kolt on Wednesday, April 16th as they welcome Meyer Family Vineyards wine proprietor Jak Meyer. For one night only, 13 guests experience a family-style three-course menu of fresh Thai flavours paired with Meyer Family’s new release Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs. Jak Meyer pours, answers questions and gives a behind-the-scenes look at the making of his award-winning wines.

In 2006, Jak Meyer and his wife Janice Stevens-Meyer established themselves as one of BC’s top wineries, specializing in premium Chardonnay and, later, Pinot Noir. Meyer Family wines are produced on two main vineyards: a 1.62 hectare Old Main Road vineyard on the Naramata bench; and a 6.9 hectare McLean Creek Road vineyard in Okanagan Falls. Meyer Vineyards was recently honored as one of the ten best wineries in Canada by Decanter Magazine, and their 2011 McLean Creek Road Chardonnay was named the best in the country at the 2013 National Wine Awards.

The three-course dinner is $95 per person, excluding taxes and gratuity. Guests are encouraged to reserve early for this event, as tickets are limited to 13 seats. Details and menu after the jump.

To reserve a seat please purchase online.
