Grand Tasting Winter Wine Festival 2010 |

|
The Winter Wine Festival Grand Tasting Reception at the Wentworth by
the Sea featured many of the Taste Top 20 Restaurants and was hosted by
TV Diner's Billy Costa with Ben Baldwin & the Big Notes playing!
The evening was a huge success with a sold out crowd sampling hundreds
of wines from around the world and food prepared by some of the
talented chefs from the Taste Top 20 restaurants.
Keith Lemerise, publisher of Taste Magazine, worked with festival
organizers to bring in as many of his Taste Top 20 restaurants as
possible. The restaurants were chosen by magazine print and online
readers in a 2009 poll.
"We tried to integrate as many of the Top 20 as we could," said
Lemerise. "Jonathan Cartwright from The White Barn Inn is doing a
dinner, 98 Provence is here for the first time. I'm really looking
forward to so many of the wine dinners. We brought Billy Costa on
board. We also talked about adding a charity element, and we've done
that with the Wentworth."
Five dollars for each ticket and seat sold during the six-week festival
will go to Share Our Strength Seacoast, dedicated to stopping childhood
hunger. Friday night's event raised $1,750 for the charity.
