Lot #7 – The Royal Treatment
King Estate Winery

King Estate is ready to roll out the red carpet for you. This is a world-class package for a world-class trip to a world-class winery. Two couples will embark on an exploration of Oregon’s organic viticulture, receiving VIP treatment at every stop along the way. Arrive at the King Estate’s venerable headquarters near Eugene, Oregon, and feel instantly transported…the majestic winery reflects the architectural tradition of a French chateau. King Estate has one of the largest contiguous organic vineyards in the world and also features organic apple, pear and plum orchards, lush vegetable and fruit gardens, a wine bar and gourmet restaurant, and state-of-the-art winemaking facilities.

Your group will travel in style immediately after you arrive at the airport. A private shuttle will scoop you up and bring you to your home base for three nights―the luxurious King Estate guesthouse―where you can relax and unwind while you plan your next activities. You will spend part of your first day enjoying an à la carte lunch at the winery’s renowned restaurant before a VIP tour of the expansive property and a signature wine tasting with King Estate’s friendly and knowledgeable winemaker. Return to the guesthouse for a one-of-a-kind dinner party prepared by Executive Chef Benjamin Nadolny. You will go to sleep dreaming about the fine wines and delectable flavors of the evening.

But save some energy for the next day, when you will be escorted on an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of the estate’s organic garden and charcuterie kitchen. Surely this will give you an appetite, which you can satisfy with a gourmet Summit-on-the Hill lunch. After another leisurely afternoon, cap off your visit with a grand finale wine paring dinner at the King Estate Restaurant, where the chefs will delight you by creating a meal sourced primarily from their 30-plus acres of organic gardens and orchards. You will taste the true bounty of the season in both food and wine.

And tonight, each couple takes home a case of library wines from King Estate. This is no small prize…King Estate wines consistently score in the 90-point range. You can consider this a score for your own cellar.
