Pemberton’s Picardy Wines makes one of the best pinots in the country; little wonder, when ex-Mosswood founders, the Pannell family, is calling the shots.
Now, they have teamed up with Subiaco’s Chapter One restaurant to host a pinot, duck and truffle dinner.
The dinner, to be held on November 15, will feature six vintages of Picardy Pinot, plus three TDC Pinot Noir and other wines being prepared with some vigorous food matches from resident chef, Jason Walker.
