Miami Beach, FL – February 23, 2018 – SOBEWFF rounded up 60 of the nation’s top chefs to showcase their most gourmet samplings to pair with over 100 wines rated 90 points or higher on Wine Spectator’s scale. The Fontainebleau Miami Beach settled the perfect stage with its own blend of Golden Era glamour and modern luxury to host this grand walk-around affair, featuring chefs representing five countries, over 16 different states, more than a dozen James Beard Award nominees and finalists, three Food & Wine Best New Chefs, and one Bocuse d’Or winner. Only proprietors and winemakers from each winery were invited to pour their top varietals so guests got to hear about how some of the world’s greatest vino made it from their vineyards to the guest palate. From aperitif to dessert, SOBEWFF made sure that each glass was decadently decanted and the plates was full of first-rate cuisine.
