Stella Bella Winery Dinner

September 14, 2010

George Restaurant

The Australian Wine Society and HHD Imports, invite you to an exclusive wine dinner showcasing Stella Bella Wines. The beginnings of Stella Bella Wines date back to the release of 200 cases of the single vineyard Suckfizzle Sauvignon Blanc Semillon in 1999 by winemakers Janice McDonald and Stuart Pym. In 2001 the first Stella Bella wines, a Moscato style Pink Muscat and a Sangiovese Cabernet were released. The Skuttlebutt an everyday drinking style, was released in 2003.

From this modest and eclectic beginning, Stella Bella Wines has experienced rapid growth, broad critical acclaim and a reputation for producing individually crafted Margaret River wines of great expression, personality and quality. Our Special Guest, Winemaker, Stuart Pym will lead us through each of his wines, paired with the following menu, prepared by George’s Executive Chef, Lorenzo Loseto.

The evening will start at 6:30 with a reception wine, the Skuttlebutt 2008 Sauvignon Blanc/ Semillon.
