Please Note: NO TICKETS WILL BE SOLD AT THE DOOR/NO WALK UPS!....sorry but we will have to turn away anyone who doesn't have an advance ticket as wine and food has been allotted based on the ticketed attendees and we do not handle money at the door for wine and food pairing events We expect 80-90 attendees with a wine manager flying in and it's difficult to check folks in and handle money. Our events sell out quick! Please see the Denver Wine Meetup for the refund policy.
About the Warwick, Randolph's and the Playboy Club History:
Warwick Denver Hotel has always been a popular hotspot to see and be seen.The top floors were once home to Hugh Hefner's Playboy Club, which opened in 1967 and so of course, the world’s most famous playboy, Hugh Hefner, occasionally visited until the club closed in 1977.
Randolph’s Restaurant and Bar exists only in the Denver and New York locations. The restaurant was named after William Randolph Hearst, who built the original hotel in New York (the first Warwick Hotel in the U.S.) for his Hollywood friends to visit.
Castello Banfi is a family-owned vineyard estate and winery located in the Brunello region of Tuscany. This award-winning estate was founded on the philosophy of blending tradition with innovation, and is recognized as a pioneer in elevating the standards of Italian winemaking.
Capturing honor after prestigious honor, Castello Banfi is a constellation of single vineyards encompassing over three dozen varying subsoils. The estate is renowned for its clonal research that allows noble grape varieties to thrive in their optimal terroir, creating not only a consistently outstanding Brunello, but the ultimate expression of Montalcino Super Tuscans.
