Karen Cakebread, formerly of Cakebread Cellars and now handling the wine program and wine dinners at Park City’s Sky Lodge, will be hosting two upcoming vintner dinners of interest. The first takes place July 18 and features Oakville Ranch Vineyard’s general manager, Paula Kornell. Each month, Sky Lodge executive chef Scott Boberek, fin chef Briar Handley, executive pastry chef Nova Bevier and their teams will create a unique five-course dinner for guests, geared to pair with wines from the visiting vintners. On Aug. 28, Cakebread will welcome Judd and Holly Finkelstein of Judd’s Hill Winery for The Sky Lodge’s August vintner dinner. The cost for the vintner dinners is $125 per person, including wine, food, tax and gratuity. Guests attending the vintner dinners are eligible for special reduced rates at The Sky Lodge, beginning at $250 for a one-bedroom suit. And trust me, these suites are sweet! For more information and to make reservations for vintner dinners at The Sky Lodge, phone 435-658-2500 (TheSkyLodge.com).

Alcohol is not included; advance reservations are required and can be made by phoning Zoom restaurant at 435-649-9108.
