The Tradition

The festival is a tribute to the French harvest of welcoming the arrival of the first 2016 "new wines" of the famous Beaujolais region of France. The area boasts some of the oldest vineyards in France, with vines first planted during the Roman era. This annual ceremonial uncorking of the wine, which originated in the cafés of France, is now celebrated all over the world. 

Wine Bars & French Buffet

​Guests at the event enjoy the following amenities:

  • ​Excellent French and local wines, including Beaujolais Nouveau, as well as brandy and other spirits
  • A bountiful buffet featuring fine French-influenced cuisine prepared by Executive Chef Riccardo Bilotta.
  • Live music performed by The Happy Sinners
  • A silent Auction of rare treats including wine, hotel, and restautant certificates
