During his time as beverage director, a.kitchen+bar has been named a 2022 James Beard Semifinalist for the Best Wine Program. As part of the “Suite Sommelier” program, guests can complete a survey prior to their arrival, which will allow the bottle recommendation to be waiting for them in their suite.
