The Spirit of Texas: A William Chris Wine Dinner
to
The Crescent Hotel, Fort Worth 3300 Camp Bowie Blvd , Fort Worth, Texas 76107
The Crescent Hotel, Fort Worth
The Blue Room
Join us on Saturday, October 4th at 7:30PM for an extraordinary evening in The Blue Room as we welcome William Chris Vineyards, one of Texas’ most acclaimed wineries. Guests will have the rare opportunity to share the evening with Chris Brundrett, Co-Founder & Owner of William Chris, and Chris Hillin, Vice President of William Chris, who will guide the dinner with stories of their craft and vision for Texas wine.
This intimate five-course dinner, curated by Executive Chef Preston Paine, will highlight the artistry of both food and wine. Dishes include Mussels Escabeche with grilled sourdough and confit garlic aioli, Seared Duck Breast with polenta, roasted mushrooms, and pumpkinseed gremolata, and a decadent finale of Double Chocolate Cake with espresso buttercream and whipped Mill-King cream. Each course will be paired with William Chris’ most expressive wines, including the vibrant Petillant Naturel Rosé, elegant Mary Ruth White, bold Mourvèdre from the Texas High Plains, a Crescent private label red blend, and a sneak preview of an unreleased port-style wine.
As part of the evening, guests will also be among the very first to experience The Crescent Hotel’s exclusive private label red wine, created in collaboration with William Chris Vineyards. Earlier this year, Chef Preston Paine traveled to the winery, spending two days with the William Chris team to taste and blend this one-of-a-kind wine. Crafted solely from Texas-grown fruit, the wine is styled after a classic Bordeaux blend, showcasing the depth and character of Texas. This label is not available for retail purchase and cannot be found elsewhere, however, guests of the dinner will have the exclusive opportunity to purchase a bottle to take home as a keepsake of the evening.
