Discounted Nantucket Wine Fest Tickets on Sale Through January 15

Wines from previous Nantucket Wine Festivals

By Naomi Kooker

We know, the Nantucket Wine Festival is a long way off (May 15-19, 2013), but you may want to check your calendar, as certain tickets are being offered at a reduced rate through tomorrow, January 15.

The Harbor Gala and the Grand Tastings tickets are both discounted, with the tasting going for $95 as opposed to $125. To get an idea of the other events, check out the Boston area restaurants and chefs - Bistro du Midi, Deuxave, Puritan & Co., Barbara Lynch, as they will be pairing up with winemakers to present one-of-a-kind dinners.

In other news, the auction dinner has been replaced this year by La Fête, a special, interactive five-course dinner limited to 100 guests in which each table will host a winemaker and sommelier, and all attendees bring a bottle of wine from their private collections (May 18; $300 per person).
