Join Provence Marinaside for an intimate and exclusive wine dinner, the second in its Fall Cellar Series, with special guest Shane Munn, General Manager and Winemaker at Martin’s Lane Winery. Dedicated to Riesling and Pinot Noir, the winery uses its remarkable six-level gravity-flow design to handle the wines gently and capture the individual character of its estate vineyards.Originally from New Zealand, Mr. Munn brings international experience and a meticulous approach to Martin’s Lane. During six dinner courses, he will guide guests through an exploration of Martin’s Lane Riesling, Pinot Noir and the vineyards behind some of Okanagan Valley's most distinctive wines.  

One of the evening’s many highlights will be an exploration of three vineyard expressions of Pinot Noir from the same 2022 vintage - each paired with a different dish. The evening concludes with something particularly special - Julius 2025, a remarkably rare and exclusive wine produced in incredibly limited quantities. Combining 75 per cent Simes Vineyard Pinot Noir with 25 per cent Fritzi’s Vineyard Riesling, Julius brings together fruit from two tiny vineyard blocks, harvested on the same day. Spontaneous carbonic fermentation creates a lively, vivid wine with notes of cherry, earth and spice - a fascinating finale to an extraordinary dinner.

This is a rare opportunity to spend an evening with Mr. Munn, who seldom makes such appearances, and hear directly from him about the vineyards, vintages and decisions that shape each wine. This exclusive evening is not simply an occasion to taste some amazing wines; it is also an opportunity to explore where they came from with the person who made them.
