WinterFest
We’re Pouring Our Hearts Out.
February 14–17, 2020
Come for a romantic Valentine’s Day, then stay for WinterFest. This three-day weekend features some of the country’s hottest independent winemakers and visionary chefs, including vintner Domaine Drouhin Oregon, a family-owned winery celebrating 30 much-lauded vintages in Oregon’s Willamette Valley—and more than a century’s worth in France. A who’s who of hot Los Angeles chefs will also be on hand for WinterFest, including Chef Timothy Hollingsworth (James Beard Award winner, The Final Table 2018 winner), Chef Waylynn Lucas (star judge of Cake Wars) and Chef Brooke Williamson (2017 Top Chef winner).
You’ll experience hands-on cooking classes and demonstrations; wine, beer and spirits tastings; live entertainment; curling matches and, of course, gourmet, winter-themed feasts, complete with thoughtful wine pairings. Naturally, breathtaking wilderness adventures are also on the menu. WinterFest at Paws Up Montana truly is the coolest culinary event on earth.
