Pinnacle Looks Peachy

This is one for your must-do wine-and-food events list: a winery dinner, the first one for the still nice-and-new restaurant at the Pinnacle Hotel at the Pier in North Vancouver. The date is September 15. Pinnacle Hotel chef Joel Green’s food is cutting-edge but real, and the new Hester Creek wines are things of beauty. They still have their Trebbiano (being the only winery in B.C. actively cultivating that delicious Italian grape as far as I know), some red and white blends, a super-red Meritage style called the Judge, and many more. If you get up to the winery, they’ve put in a new restaurant too, right next to Tinhorn Creek’s Miradoro.
