Live Auction Lots Chateau du Tertre 2009 – A dense ruby/purple color is accompanied by ripe notes of red and black fruits intermixed with subtle smoke, ink, and damp earth. The lusciousness continues on the palate with an opulent, layered, rich mouthfeel. Medium to full-bodied wine with not a hard edge to be found, but plenty of ripe tannins. Donated by: George Galbraith Value: $900 --------------------------------------------------- Lot L2 “A magical evening of wine & food” CedarCreek Estate Winery President Gordon Fitzpatrick hosts dinner for ten.

Value: $3500 We are a family owned and operated winery located just south of Kelowna in British Columbia’s spectacular Okanagan Valley. At Cedar Creek, we are committed to producing premium British Columbia wines. Family ownership means we craft our wines with care and attention to detail, from the vineyard to the bottle. Our pride in producing premium BC wines is reflected in our winemaking philosophy: Chef Michael Lyon first got his start in kitchens at the ripe age of 14 and has not stopped since. After completing training at George Brown College in Toronto, Michael honed his skills in Toronto, and moved west in 2001. Michael’s move to Kelowna and the historic Hotel Eldorado places him in the ultimate setting for a Chef. Here Michael strives to take advantage of the Okanagan's bounty of seasonal and organic products provided by local suppliers. With a food philosophy best characterized as “French forward with a Rocky Mountain twist,” Michael has found the perfect playground for his talents to flourish. --------------------------------------------------- Lot L3 A POWER HOUSE TEAM FOR A SPECTACULAR EVENING Chef Rod Butters - WCC, Chef Bernard Casavant Wines from the Private Cellar of George Galbraith The evening must be hosted in the Kelowna area and dinner to be arranged and completed prior to May 31st , 2011, excluding November & December 2010.
