About this Event
The 2025 Art of Wine event was a favorite among our many offerings of the year, providing a unique blend of art, food, culture, and delightful wines. During its second iteration, Heide and Oscar will showcase six wines from their personal collection, offering guests a unique opportunity to indulge in wines from around the globe. This year’s wine tasting blends the refined ambiance of a museum with the relaxed allure of a vineyard. The evening begins with a welcome glass of sparkling wine, as guests enjoy a tour of a featured exhibition. What follows is a five-course meal with wine tastings thoughtfully paired, designed to enhance the distinct notes and flavors of the wine.
Elevating the experience beyond the glass, Heide and Oscar recount the stories behind each wine’s acquisition, immersing guests in the landscapes, histories, and traditions from which the wines emerge.
Guests will receive details about each wine involved in the tasting, expert tips for selecting and pairing wines, and a surprise handcrafted for every person to take home. As with last year, there will also be special giveaways!
