Battle of the Bermuda Wine Merchants is On!
We are thrilled to invite you to the grand "Battle of the Wine Merchants" on Saturday, March 1 at Bolero Brasserie. This spectacular evening promises a friendly competition between our island's finest wine merchants: Discovery/Burrows vs. Pitt&Co/Tasting Room vs. Waterfront Wines.
The Evening's Program: Chef Jonny has crafted an innovative menu (attached) that masterfully challenges our wine merchants with unexpected ingredients and bold flavor combinations. His culinary artistry is the foundation of this beloved event, pushing our merchants to showcase their finest selections and pairing expertise.
Last year's champion Ryliegh McGhee (now representing Tasting Room) will be returning to defend her crystal decanter trophy against two worthy challengers. You'll be the judge - tasting and voting for the perfect wine pairing with each course.
