One of the signature experiences of Traverse City Food & Wine, the Old World New World Wine Dinner brings together Chateau Grand Traverse Executive Chef Keil Moshier and James Beard Award-winning Chef Debbie Gold for an exclusive one-night culinary collaboration.
Your evening begins with a welcome pour and a guided journey through the estate vineyard, cellar, and barrel room, including tastes drawn directly from tank. From there, you'll descend into the hidden Speakeasy beneath the Inn, where just 32 guests will gather for an intimate multi-course dinner inspired by two great winemaking traditions.
Each course pairs benchmark European wines alongside estate-grown Chateau Grand Traverse selections, inviting guests to compare terroir, technique, and philosophy through both food and wine. Throughout the evening, Chefs Moshier and Gold, together with the winery team, share the stories behind every course and pairing, creating an experience that is equal parts exceptional dinner, immersive wine education, and unforgettable conversation.
