Boston, Massachusetts – Reported by Elite Traveler, the Private Jet Lifestyle Magazine
Taj Boston, the landmark hotel at Arlington and Newbury streets overlooking the Public Garden, is offering monthly Thursday night wine dinners now through December 2010.
Each evening is limited to 15 guests, who first taste and discuss the wines in the hotel’s historic Cellar with a noted wine maker or their representative, who provides an insider’s overview of the wines and winery. The convivial conversation continues during a four-course Chef’s menu with wine pairings in The Café. Guests have the opportunity to explore a variety of wine and culinary topics at table with one another and the evening’s wine expert. To ensure a most relaxed experience, guests may then simply take the elevator “home” to their luxurious accommodations for the evening.
