Dear members
I am very pleased to present an evening showcasing the wonderful wines of Fullerton from Oregon’s Willamette Valley. Founded in 2012, this boutique winery is owned and operated by Eric and Susanne Fullerton, with their talented winemaker son, Alex Fullerton, in charge of crafting these lovely wines. The source of Fullerton’s selected fruit originates from select and trusted vineyard partners, as well as a long-standing relationship with Estate Ivy Slope Vineyard.
Stylistically, Fullerton wines are elegant, distinctive, and age-worthy with lively acidity, graceful tannins, and a tight core of fruit, accompanied by layered secondary notes. The Fullerton wines speak profoundly while still reflecting the vineyard and the vintage. The style of the wines also enables them to evolve gracefully over time, and pair beautifully with food.
We are privileged to have Caroline Fullerton, the daughter of Eric and Susanne Fullerton, to host us for the evening, where she will guide us through a near complete range of their portfolio, including several of Fullerton’s single vineyard chardonnays and pinot noirs. We are grateful to Fullerton Wines through WineSource Asia for its sponsorship of the wines for the evening.
The wines have been paired with the cuisine at V Dining, the first-ever restaurant by Swiss Boutique home appliance manufacturer V-ZUG. Conceived by Chef Ryan Clift, Brand Ambassador of V-ZUG, V Dining’s menu features modern-European creations with a fun, modern twist. Chef Ryan arrived in Singapore in 2008 to set up Tippling Club. Known for its avant-garde cuisine and inventive cocktails, Tippling Club has been named one of Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants multiple times. While Chef Ryan is the “architect” at V Dining, each dish is brought to life by Head Chef Lee Jing Peng. Chef Lee Jing Peng first entered the local culinary world in 2013 as a Commis Cook with Tippling Club. After 1.5 years of mentorship under Chef Ryan, Chef Lee Jing Peng went on to join two-Michelin-starred restaurant Les Amis as a Pastry Cook. His next stint was Demi Chef de Partie at three-Michelin-starred restaurant, Joël Robuchon before finally joining V Dining.

Please note that no cancellations will be accepted after 30th August, due to capacity constraints. We are using the QR code and electronic payment with this event.
