Wine connoisseurs rejoice – the Four Seasons Resort Maui is hosting its Vintage Wine Weekend May 24 to 26, 2013, as part of its Unforgettable Events series.
The three-day event will feature vintners Gary Burke of Costa de Oro; Steve Clifton of Brewer Clifton; Donald Patz of Patz & Hall; Dan Kosta of Kosta Browne; and representatives from Domaine Chérisy. This is the second year the resort is presenting a weekend of wine events.
The weekend will commence in the tradition of La Paulée events in Burgundy. Growers, producers and wine connoisseurs are encouraged to get on a guest VIP list to attend this exclusive by invitation only first-night "Private Cellar" event. Guests are asked to bring a magnum of their favorite vintage to share with others attending a dinner created by the resort's Master Executive Chef Roger Stettler. For further information, contact [email protected]: $195.00 per person plus tax and gratuity.
On the second night, guests will take part in one of three wine-paired dinners, featuring the wines of guest vintners at each dinner. The vintners will also attend the dinners, which will be held at the resort’s three restaurants: Spago Maui with Chef Cameron Lewark, featuring the wines of Patz & Hall; DUO with Master Executive Chef Roger Stettler and the wines of Kosta Browne and Costa de Oro; and Ferraro's with Chef Stettler, and the wines of Brewer Clifton and Domaine Chérisy. Price: $115.00 per person plus tax and gratuity.
The third night is the casual-attire Oceanfront Gala, with a tasting menu created by Chef Stettler with 40 exclusive wines. The event will also boast local Maui produce, displayed and personally presented by area farmers along with featured vintners. Fishermen will display and talk about their ‘fresh catches’ and the process of quickly going from sea to table. Price: $165.00 per person plus tax and gratuity.
