Dine Out Vancouver Announces Details of BC VQA Wine Brunches

In January, four local restaurants will host elegant reception-style brunches in conjunction with the 2018 Dine Out Vancouver Festival. Some of Metro Vancouver’s top chefs will prepare special menus for the events, and 5 BC wineries will each pour 2 VQA wines at each brunch. Guests will be encouraged to experiment and explore with flavour combinations by pairing a variety of cuisine with the homegrown wines, and to share their experiences and discoveries with the other guests.

A ticket to any of the events is $62 inclusive of taxes, gratuity, and service charges. Please note all events are 19+, and guests will be required to show government ID. To purchase tickets, please visit https://www.dineoutvancouver.com/events/
