Wine Dinners

A close relationship with wine producers has always been at the heart of The Connaught Hotel Wine Program – down to the cellar holding legendary vintages and exclusive collections from around the globe. In celebration of this, our Wine Dinners are an elegant showcase for the world’s most prestigious wines, inviting guests on a gastronomic exploration in the heart of Mayfair.

Each unique Wine Dinner is hosted in either a private dining room or in the restaurant, setting an inspiring scene. Guests are personally welcomed by The Connaught’s Director of Wine, Daniel Manetti, who will introduce the winemaker or a Master of Wine leading the guided tasting. Meanwhile, a bespoke menu is created by Hélène Darroze and her team to perfectly match the wines being presented.

From the aperitif to a fine cheese course, each dish has been carefully balanced – and each glass chosen to complement the food. As you dine, you will be told the story behind each bottle: its origins, tasting notes and techniques.

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Dinner 11 December

Indulge in a 6-course culinary masterpiece at Hélène Darroze at The Connaught, featuring the unparalleled wines of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti. Hosted by Daniel Manetti and Adam Brett-Smith, the evening pairs vintages like the 2014 Montrachet Grand Cru with exquisite dishes crafted by three-Michelin-starred chef. Expect caviar with Thousand Islets Lake dashi jelly, oyster, and sea urchin, and venison Wellington with smoked eel, beetroot, and poivrade jus, delivering an unforgettable fusion of fine wine and culinary excellence.
