Join us at FENIKS in Southampton for an evening celebrating Cabernet Franc and the distinctive character of New York wines.
Hosted in collaboration with Cab Franc Forward NY, this special wine dinner brings together two beloved Long Island wineries, Wölffer Estate and Macari Vineyards, with winemakers Roman Roth of Wölffer Estate and Byron Elmendorf of Macari Vineyards joining us for the evening.
The experience begins at 6:00 PM with a welcome reception in FENIKS's cocktail lounge, featuring two wines and passed canapés. Guests will then enjoy a seated, five-course dinner prepared by Chef Douglas Gulija, thoughtfully paired with a selection of distinctive Cabernet Franc bottlings from Wölffer Estate and Macari Vineyards.
A longtime admirer of New York Cabernet Franc, Chef Gulija brings his culinary perspective to the table, creating a menu that highlights the versatility of the grape and its unique expression across the region. Throughout the evening, guests will have the opportunity to explore the wines alongside the winemakers themselves, offering a closer look at the craftsmanship, character, and terroir behind each bottle.
An intimate evening of exceptional food, distinctive wines, and conversation celebrating one of New York's most expressive grape varieties.
