"Rhine, Rhone and 'Rim"

Kapalua Bay Hotel Ballroom
Rhine-style and Rhone-style wines paired with Pacific Rim foods. The Rhone represents warm climates - think full-bodied, ripe, spicy/exotic - while the Rhine represents cool climates - think lighter in style, aromatic, delicate - two very different styles that yield distinct wines longing for similarly complex food. We'll OD on awesome flavors!
