Halekulani Offers Once in a Lifetime Epicurean Experience
This distinctive epicurean experience showcases a multi-course menu specially created and prepared by Bruno Chevalier, Master Chef of Château Rauzan-Ségla and Château Canon, and complemented with wines personally selected by John Kolasa, Managing Director of both Châteaux. The wines were flown in for the event directly from the châteaux, including the rare 1966 Château Canon in magnum and the 1986 Château Rauzan-Ségla (rated at 96 points by Robert Parker.)

“We are excited to partner with these legendary, iconic Margaux and St Emilion estates on the occasion of Château Rauzan-Ségla’s 350th anniversary year, and to be able to share with our guests such rare vintage wines. This will be an unique event not to be missed,” said Chief Operating Officer Peter Shaindlin.
