EVENT DETAILS:
Prepare your palate as Jungle Jim’s presents the second annual International Wine Festival
Over 20 countries will be represented as you wander, sip by sip, through all the major wine producing regions of the world. Argentina, South Africa, Spain, New Zealand, Canada, Chile, Italy, and France are a few of the countries sharing their bottled bounty at the show. Taste how Vitis vinifera (the common grape vine) has been historically cultivated from culture to culture. As you experience the wines, you will also learn about wines, wine making and storing from those who taste and promote winemaking for a living. Table after table of experts are available to walk you through the wines they know and love. Interspersed among the wines are olives, cheeses, meats and more. All arranged within their countries to compliment your tasting experience. There is a food for every wine and a wine for every food, which is understood by all those who make and enjoy wine. The right bite can make a great wine into a memorable experience. This event brings food and wine – and the company of other wine lovers - together in the way wine was meant to be experienced. Guests will want to visit the booths of our local and regional vintners from Ohio, Kentucky, Missouri and more. Home grown isn't always the most exotic, but we invite you to experience the local pride and connection that wine connoisseurs and others have always felt about the wines from their countries. Not to be forgotten is the premium cigar smoking. With selections by Chris Carver, our resident expert, cigars will be available on our Monorail Terrace. We will also be serving jingling glasses of premium spirits as a night cap or a respite from the evening's grape excitement. VIP Gourmet Dinner: $100 (Advance Sale Only) Beginning one hour prior to the show, 90 special guests will be treated to a gourmet dinner specially created by the executive chef of The Oscar Event Center. Enjoy the ambiance and set the tone for an enjoyable evening. Your dinner will be matched with premium wines not available to taste at the general show, with each wine selection presented by one of our resident wine experts. Ed Vinson, Dave Schmerr and Todd Wiggs will introduce the wines served with each course of the meal. After your meal, you will be invited to move from the secluded dining area into Festival Hall, while our staff refreshes your table for your return enjoyment throughout the evening. This is your place to get away from the noise and excitement of the show, make notes about the wines you’ve enjoyed, and gather with other VIP friends. You will also have access to bar service which will be provided in the VIP area throughout the evening. |
