A BOUTIQUE hotel will follow up a sought-after wine dinner with a unique event.
Drakes in Marine Parade, Brighton, last month welcomed Ralph Hochar, the third generation producing Chateau Musar wine from Lebanon.
The celebrated vineyard has won international acclaim for its Bekaa Valley wines produced since the 1930s.
Later this month Drakes will welcome an impressive line-up from New Zealand wineries – Alan McCorkindale, CJ Pask and Cloudy Bay – at the special one-off event.
Meanwhile, in June, Kevin McKee of Champagne house Taittinger will present five wines.
Both events will be matched by special dinners created by Drakes’ head chef Andy Mackenzie.
