New Year's Eve

Bring in the new year in style!

Enjoy an evening of pairing wine with food with syndicated columnist and bestselling cookbook author, Shari Darling, the Sophisticated Wino.

During the cocktail hour, Shari Darling will take you on a guided tour of pairing certain wine styles with various delicious appetizers. You will then be guided into the dining room for a buffet style dinner by candle light. Shari has created a harmony menu of buffet dishes partnered with specific wines so you can continue your culinary journey of the senses through dinner. A variety of wines will be offered by the glass, as well as a full service bar, roaring fire and soft music. Begin your New Year with a new understanding of the art and science of wine and food pairing. Wine by the glass, bottle litre and half litre as well as cocktails and mixed drinks will be available at the cash bar througout the evening.

Following dinner join us in our lounge for a romantic candle lit evening, soft music, fireside dancing, champagne and party favours at midnight.
