WINE AND CULINARY DELIGHTS AT SIX SENSES YAO NOI

By: Christian Stan | 22 July, 2015

Six Senses Yao Noi introduces its third private labeled wine, the Syrah Red, on August 11, 2015. The event, to be held at the resort’s stunning Hilltop Reserve, will be attended by winemaker Nikki Lohitnavy of GranMonte Estate, who will personally introduce the Syrah Red to guests and resort team.

The next evening, August 12, a Thai wine and barbecue dinner will be held on the beach beneath the stars. Guests are encouraged to dress casually and comfortably to join Executive Chef Anthony Reynolds and Nikki on the beach as they cook and pair seven Gran Monte wines with freshly-caught seafood. The event starts at 6:30 pm with sparkling wine at sundown and is priced at EUR 79.

Later in the week of celebrations, Executive Sommelier Christian Maier will present a unique Champagne tasting set on a deserted island accompanied by delicious nibbles. Guests will be guided by the resorts’ wine expert in one of the most inspiring and unforgettable surroundings at sunset.

The Syrah Red is produced solely for Six Senses Yao Noi, and has resulted from collaboration between Six Senses Yao Noi and Nikki. The sustainably produced wine is crafted from estate grown fruit of the Asoke Valley, and aged in French oak barrels for eight months. It shows blackberries and blackcurrant fruit with a hint of pepper spice and is perfect with Thai food. The delightful freshness blends perfectly with the natural lifestyle of Six Senses Yao Noi.
