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 2020 in splendiferous style with free-flowing Bordeaux and Moet champagne, beef brisket that took three days to prepare in the baronial kitchen, English trifle – a particular favorite –, tiramisu, and persimmon pudding.

It was quite the turnout with Allan Glaser, Chapin Nolen, Robyn Geddes, Cat Pollon, Beverley Jackson, Sharon Bradford, Tom and Linda Cole, Allan Glaser, Chapin Nolen, Mary Dorra, Sharon Bradford, Chui Faising, Trish Reynales, Barbara Woods, Tim Street-Porter, and Allan Brostrom.

Always a cracking start to the New Year.
