Lake Placid Lodge Introduces First Annual Gastronomic Getaway
October 1, 2010
Both based in New York, Hermann J. Wiemer Vineyards and Channing Daughters Winery will provide guests with exceptional pairings to multi-course dinners throughout the three-day event. The winery teams join guest chefs Sandro Romano of The Modern and Christopher Bradley of Gramercy Tavern, as well as Jean-Luc Le Du, owner of Le Du's Wines, for a weekend of tantalizing culinary experiences celebrating New York State products and vendors.
Hermann J. Wiemer Vineyards (www.wiemer.com), based in the Finger Lakes region of New York, is delighted to be a part of the gastronomic weekend. Hermann J. Wiemer is regarded as one of the pioneers of viticulture and winemaking in New York. Wiemer Vineyards combine the best of old-world viticulture practices with sustainable modern techniques in its nursery, vineyard and winemaking to ensure the wines embody the finest expression of the vineyards. Over the last thirty years, Wiemer's consistency and quality have earned the winery a reputation for being one the nation's best white wine producers and a leader in Riesling, garnering recognition from Saveur, Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, and Wine & Spirits Magazine.
Channing Daughters Winery (www.channingdaughters.com) of Bridgehampton, New York, is excited to partner with the Lodge in its first annual Gastronomic Getaway weekend to provide guests with a multi-dimensional epicurean experience. Guests will have the opportunity to enjoy varietals produced from the only winery on the East End using grapes sourced locally from special sites and growers on the North Fork of New York. Channing Daughters Winery prides itself on the commitment to the care of its grapevines and quality of wine in the bottle.
In addition to three extraordinary multi-course dinners prepared by the visiting chefs, the Gastronomic Getaway Weekend itinerary will include such experiences as:
• One on one time with the chefs in and out of the kitchen
• Discussion panels revolving around the state of food and beverage in New York and trends
• Wine, beer and spirit tastings as well as lessons in mixology
• Hiking and foraging
• A breakfast canoe trip to an Adirondack island
• The reinvention of the s'more and a BBQ competition between the chefs
• Local cheese/dairy farm, brewery, and maple sugar farm tours
• Tour of a nationally recognized local school focused on responsible agricultural practices
Guests have two opportunities for experiencing the Gastronomic Getaway weekend. The first is a package covering the entire weekend of festivities. The package cost is $2,995 per couple and includes three nights lodging, breakfast, all activities, wine and spirit pairings, and three multicourse dinners prepared by the renowned chefs. The second opportunity is a daily package for $150 per person, per day and includes all activities, and a multicourse dinner with wine pairings.
Lake Placid Lodge – the only hotel on Lake Placid – is balanced on the edge of village and forest, a Great Camp for the new century. It is a realm of infinite welcome and great beauty, where the wide porches, high windows, grand outdoor fireplaces, and paths wandering off into the woods embrace the magnificence of nature. The Lodge is a celebration of all that was – and remains – best in the Adirondacks. Its beams are hewn by hand, its rooms filled with art and antiques, its beds were carved by local artisans, and its fifty stone fireplaces laid piece-by-piece by Adirondack masons. Built by hand in the "Arts and Crafts" tradition, the Lodge houses 13 rooms and 17 luxurious cabins at the water's edge. Each room has a fireplace at its heart and wilderness visible through its diamond paned windows. The highly acclaimed Artisans Restaurant serves the innovative cuisine of executive chef Brian Sutton, composed with classical European techniques, using local organic farmhouse products.
