Chateau Grand Traverse invites you to indulge in a transcendent midday experience at the heart of Old Mission Peninsula wine country.

This intimate, open-air culinary event begins with a private campus tour across the historic estate and production facility, offering behind-the-scenes access to the vineyards, cellar, and the story behind Northern Michigan’s most iconic wines.

Following the tour and tank sampling, guests will be welcomed to a vineyard table nestled among the vines for a multi-course luncheon, presented in collaboration by Estate Executive Chef Keil Moshier and special guest, Chef Omar Anani—James Beard-nominated chef and founder of Detroit’s acclaimed Saffron De Twah.

Known for his bold, ingredient-driven cuisine rooted in North African flavors with French technique, Chef Anani brings a family-style approach to the table—featuring vibrant, shareable dishes that reflect both his culinary heritage and the summer season of Northern Michigan.

Each course is paired with a curated flight of CGT wines, including current releases, cellar-aged reserves, and rare library selections. With every pour and every plate, this experience reflects the soul of Chateau Grand Traverse—where Old World vines meet Old Mission soul. From vineyard heritage to cellar craftsmanship, it’s a celebration of expressive winemaking shared among connoisseurs, collectors, and culinary insiders.
