Bordeaux Welcomes Guest Sommelier Patrick Cappiello for Diner En Blanc NYC August 25

Hey everyone,

It's the last time (we think!) we'll come at you with this topic: Bordeaux Wines at Dîner en Blanc in New York, coming Monday August 25.

We're pleased to announce Guest Sommelier Patrick Cappiello, who developed the award-winning wine cellar at GILT restaurant at The New York Palace Hotel — is available for interviews to discuss Bordeaux wine, the featured wine at Dîner en Blanc New York this summer.

Have you posted an item on Bordeaux at Dîner en Blanc yet? Want to talk to the Bordeaux folks about their wines--both at the event and year-round, before or during or after the event? We're here to help. Please let us know if we can facilitate your interest and if you can preview the event, we can invite you to join us in the Dîner en Blanc press area on Monday evening. Thanks for listening!
