Exclusive Wine Dinner of Huneeus Family Wines From Oregon and California

Overview

Join us at Bistro Vendome in Park Hill for a wine dinner featuring premium-quality wines from the Huneeus Family of California and Oregon


For generations, the Huneeus Family has built some of the world's greatest wine brands. Their critically acclaimed wine estates include Quintessa, Flowers, Faust, Benton-Lane, Favia, Leviathan, and Illumination. Agustin Huneeus has a 50-year wine career. Recent partnerships include Flowers Vineyard and Winery and Benton Lane in Oregon. In 2017, Andy Erickson, former winemaker for Screaming Eagle, joined as a partner on his red blend project Leviathan.

As is our custom, this event will allow you to compare two wines side-by-side to discover your preferences. Our guest speaker will be Brooke Medosch, Rocky Mountain Sales Manager, Huneeus Wines. We will be tasting the range of wines with a curated dinner from the culinary team at Bistro Vendome.

As a special treat to celebrate a successful year of events, we are offering a dessert course featuring Favia Cabernet Sauvignon.
