Great Wines in Grand Houses
Great Wines in Grand Houses is perhaps the most prestigious of the NWF events. The GWIGH programming includes both Wine Tastings and Wine Dinners in the unique setting of private, historic and elegant Nantucket homes.
Wine Tastings are educational and intimate, and are led by winemakers and winery principals.
The Wine Dinners are served in 5-6 courses, perfectly paired with the select wines, and delivered in person by the chef during each course. The wines are tasted with the guidance of the featured winemaker or winery principal. Carrying on the Nantucket Wine Festival tradition, guests are welcomed with a flute of Veuve Clicquot. Elegantly set and fully staffed, these dinners for 20 are intimate and educational. Each course is perfectly paired, and presented by both the winemaker and chef.
