Sommelier Led Dinners "What a great way to spend a night out!" - Randy In order to create a unique experience with food and wine, The Savvy Grapes Sommelier led dinners are based on a theme. During the dinner we showcase a breadth of wines paired with the menu. True to the form of a professional Sommelier, in preparation for each dinner, we work with the chef of the restaurant to create a menu paired with wines that will enhance the flavours of the food in each course. We take over a restaurant and create a professional and fun experience for our guests.
