Farm to Table Wine Dinners at Chaminade Resort & Spa

Five years ago Chef Beverlie Terra and her team conceptualized an intimate dinner with local wine, and the finest that local growers and producers had to offer, in a natural setting overlooking the Monterey Bay.  In May of 2008 the first Farm to Table Wine Dinner was hosted with a humble crowd of 12 guests. Today Chef Beverlie Terra and her team, will host the 4th Annual Farm to Table Wine Dinner series, with dinners expected to be at maximum capacity.

Join us for Chaminade Resort & Spa’s 4th Annual Farm to Table Wine Dinner Series, beginning in June and continues through October 2012!
 
Enjoy a five course dinner with local, farm fresh ingredients prepared by award-winning Executive Chef, Beverlie Terra and her team. Sip on endless Central Coast wines as you talk with Chef Beverlie, as well as featured farmers and vintners who will join you for dinner to answer any questions you may have about the carefully sourced and crafted meals.

Dinners take place on the terrace patios, boasting unsurpassed views of the Santa Cruz Mountains and Monterey Bay. A reception with wine and passed hors d’oeurves begins at 6:00 pm followed by a full dinner and endless wine at 6:30 pm.
