As usual, tout le monde was at the New Year’s Day lunch thrown by affable gardening guru George Schoellkopf and international artist Gerald Incandela at their magnificent Summerland aerie.

The tony twosome, who fly between their estates here and Washington, Connecticut, kicked off 2023 in splendiferous style with free-flowing vintage Bordeaux and Moët champagne, beef brisket that took three days to prepare in the baronial kitchen, English trifle prepared by George (a particular favorite), tiramisu, and persimmon pudding.

As usual, it was quite the turnout with Larry Feinberg and Starr Siegele, Robyn Geddes, Allan Glaser, Barbara Woods, Anne Towbes, Anne and Nick Fuchs, Trish Reynales, and Sandy Knox-Johnston.

Always a cracking start to the New Year!
