Calling all wine connoisseurs! Join us for Westchester Magazine’s fourth annual Wine Collector’s Dinner, featured as part of our Wine & Food Festival, on Friday, June 7. Share your most valued vintage with fellow wine lovers and experience new sips from the cellars of your wine-loving peers.
As summer kicks off in Westchester County, enjoy the majestic sunset skyline views at Kanopi. The restaurant rests atop The Opus Westchester in White Plains, 42 floors up in the clouds. The night’s one-of-a-kind dinner is specially selected and prepared by Westchester’s top chef, Anthony Goncalves.

This luxurious showcase of unique vintages includes a champagne reception at 6:30 p.m., directly followed by a bottle share and dinner at 7 p.m. The dinner begins with an array of passed canapes including, falafel, smoked salmon, shrimp po’ boy, beef samosa, pulled chicken tacos, and lamb skewers. The plated dinner includes pre-set Hamachi ceviche, scallops, and prime dry-aged sirloin, with the option for vegan alternatives. This is a sample menu, so items will be seasonally updated approximately one week before the event.
After you pop that cork, experience the live charity wine and trip auction, during which you can expand your knowledge of vino and leave with a bottle of your favorite drink or your next vacation. All proceeds from the live and silent auctions will benefit Westchester Parks Foundation.
Individual tickets cost $190, which includes tax and gratuity for the event. In addition, all attendees must bring a minimum of one bottle per person with a minimum value of $200 per magnum or $100 per bottle.
