Culinary Conversations: Female Winemakers Dinner

Join us for an intimate evening in the Great Room at RSA House, celebrating the craft, perspective and vision of female winemakers, in partnership with Ellis Wines. This edition of Culinary Conversations brings together Clémence Fabre (Famille Fabre, Corbières), Esther Pinuaga (Bodegas Pinuaga, Castilla) and Megan Clarke, Wine Buyer at Ellis Wines, to explore gender and the contemporary world of winemaking.

Across the discussion, our winemakers will share their personal journeys into the industry, how they established their estates, and what it means to build a career in a field that has long been male dominated. The conversation will open up questions around opportunity, power and perception in the wine world, from challenging entrenched attitudes, to the advantages women bring as producers, leaders and innovators. Together, they will look ahead to the future of women in the wine industry.

Guests will then enjoy a four course seasonal dinner with pairings, introduced throughout the evening by the winemakers themselves, beginning with a glass of Pet Nat ‘Instant Bulle’, allowing space for storytelling, questions and tasting notes at the table.

The event takes place at RSA House, home to the Royal Society of Arts, a 270 year old charity dedicated to social progress and creative futures. By hosting events that bring together food, culture, ideas and craft, The RSA aims to create spaces for education, creativity, and community; ticket revenue from our events directly supports the organisation’s charitable mission.
