Xanadu! Xanadu!

(8/19/2012)

The Laguna Resort & Spa has organized a memorable night for wine connoisseurs on Friday, September 14, 2012, at the Arwana Restaurant.

The privileged, limited number of diners gathering in Nusa Dua on that date will enjoy a six-course degustation menu specially prepared by executive chef Made Putra carefully paired with wines from Margaret River’s Xanadu Vineyards.

On hand to help Chef Putra orchestrate the nights will be The Laguna’s Sommelier assisted by Glen Goodall, chief winemaker of Xanadu who will personally introduce each wine.

The evening begins with Champagne, cocktails and canapés at 7:00 pm at the Arnawa Terrace Bar followed by dinner at 7:30 pm.

Xanadu Wines

Established in 1977 by Dr. John Lagan, Xanadu was an early pioneer in what has become a major wine industry flourishing today surrounding Western Australia’s Margaret River.

With branding inspired by the poetry of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Xanadu Vineyards was purchased in 2005 by the Rathbone family who carry on a tradition of producing wines of quality and distinction.

Fiercely committed to environmental sustainability, the dynamic team of winemakers employs methods that emphasize preventative disease management, pest management and irrigation.

Recognized internationally with numerous awards, Xanadu’s Glen Goodall describes the vineyards heritage, saying, “This effort has culminated in wines that we can be truly proud of, wines that show the true personality of this site and how good this place can really be.”
