Together with Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, oenophiles and gourmands can help earthquake victims in Chile with a simple sip. From now through April 18, 2010, Four Seasons will donate a portion of the proceeds from sales of Chilean wines from Veramonte Winery at participating properties in North America to the Chilean Red Cross. A USD 10.00 donation will be made for each bottle sold, and a USD 2.50 donation for each glass.
Three distinct vintages will be offered both by the bottle and by the glass in all dining venues at more than 20 hotels and resorts during the promotion. Featured wines include 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva, which beckons to be savoured with a bold meal, and 2009 Sauvignon Blanc Reserva and 2008 Chardonnay Reserva which both pair perfectly with a warm spring night.
Created through a partnership with the Chilean owners of Veramonte and distributor Southern Wine & Spirits, the initiative continues the Four Seasons tradition of delivering support to those in need, and now extends the opportunity to guests.
