What happens when you combine delicious plates of gourmet food with the very best wine in the world, all served up in a beautiful private room in one of Golden’s most iconic venues?
You get Wine on Washington!
Please join us upstairs in the State Room at Buffalo Rose for a relaxing and informative evening where we creatively pair up some of the finest food in Colorado with a head-to-head battle between 2 wine country juggernauts: Italy vs Argentina!
Upon arrival, guests will be welcomed with a sparkling toast alongside a selection of stationed bites. Once the program starts, you'll be treated to a series of head-to-head pairings, each featuring a wine from Italy and a wine from Argentina poured side-by-side against a delicious tapas-style bite created by Executive Chef Chris Zekos and the Buffalo Rose's culinary team. The evening closes with a special dessert pairing.
This is an unforgettable experience for both wine connoisseurs and those new to oenophilia. A seasoned sommelier will guide you through each head-to-head tasting while Chef Chris walks you through the perfectly paired bites. Savor the rich flavors and aromas as you decide which country comes out on top, course by course.
Ticket pricing includes a welcome toast, several rounds of Italy vs Argentina wine and food pairings, plus a final dessert pairing, along with short but informative presentations by Volver and the Buffalo Rose. Sales tax and gratuity are also included in the ticket price.
Impress a date, bring a friend or come down solo, but be sure to reserve your spot now and raise a shot glass to great flavors, phenomenal surroundings and interesting company!
