The Hong Kong Wine & Dine Festival will return to the Central Harbourfront from October 23 to 26 this year.
At the heart of the festival will be the Grand Wine Pavillion, featuring curated collections selected by leading critics such as James Suckling.
The timing of this year marks the 170th anniversary of the 1855 Bordeaux Classification. Over the four days of the festival, visitors can sample Bordeaux 1855 classified growths, discover wines from across the globe, and enjoy gourmet pairings in a celebration that blends tasting with cultural exchange.
Apart from wines from the usual suspects such as France, Italy, Spain, the UK and Japan, wines from the Czech Republic, Belgium, Norway, and Austria will make their debut.
Chinese wines will continue to be in the spotlight, wines from Ningxia, Sichuan and Yunnan are expected to be on show, highlighting the festival’s role as a launchpad for Chinese wines on the international stage.
Culinary offerings will be very ambitious with Michelin and Black Pearl chefs from London, Beijing, Seoul and Hong Kong will serve exclusive dishes available only during the event.
Chefs like Alvin Leung of two-Michelin-starred Bo Innovation, as well as Anne-Sophie Pic, the most Michelin-decorated female chef in the world and the owner of one-Michelin-starred Cristal Room by Anne-Sophie Pic in Hong Kong will appear in the show.
Several Michelin and Black Pearl restaurants will also set up booths, bringing festival-goers a rare dining experience.
Karen Macmillan, Director of Australia, New Zealand and South Pacific of Hong Kong Tourism Board said: “Hong Kong’s diverse events calendar consistently gives visitors new reasons to return. Our hallmark festivals highlight the city’s world-class food and drink scene, with many bars and restaurants ranked among the best globally. With growing visitation from Australia and New Zealand, and electrifying entertainment also on the program, this year’s Hong Kong Wine & Dine Festival will serve up the very best for travellers.”
