Embrace the extraordinary! Your journey begins the moment you step foot inside the famed Fontainebleau, a sleek, sophisticated backdrop for an evening designed especially for those with discriminating tastes. The Best of the Best is pure indulgence, incorporating cutting-edge cuisine, reserve wines, visual excitement in a fashionable setting, and a palpable vibe sure to energize all who enter. This year, “The Best” takes on greater meaning than ever, with the world’s top Champagnes on full display. In the presence of the French Ambassador, the Honorable Pierre Vimont, his country’s most famous export will add a flair never before experienced at this exciting event. The bubbly will accentuate the sampling plates assembled by celebrated chefs and an international array of fine wines – each recognized as superior by Wine Spectator – will provide another welcome opportunity to try something new. In between these pleasures, take a moment to peruse the unique items up for bids at the silent auction, including exotic trips, rare wines, one-of-kind dinners, and more.
