CULINARY EVENTS AT THE REES HOTEL?

What an outstanding dinner!

The food was excellent, the view from our table remarkable, the service impeccable. But the wine service stood out above all. Ashish, the sommelier, set a high bar for wine service, rivaling the chateaux of Bordeaux and the castellos of Tuscany. Our utmost thanks to Ashish and the staff for an unforgettable evening commemorating our honeymoon!
