Taste, Tango & Toast the Andes



Each year under the glow of the harvest moon, guests gather at the historic Deering Estate at Cutler to celebrate the fine wine, fine food and fine art of a specific region of the world. South America’s rich culture is the focus of “Taste, Tango & Toast to the Andes,” at the 10th annual Wine on Harvest Moon, presented by BMW South.  On Saturday, October 15th attendees experience the ambience of Chile and Argentina through wine tastings, a celebrity chef cooking demo featuring Sugarcane’s Timon Balloo, and top area restaurants preparing variety of scrumptious Latin-inspired dishes. Dancers dressed in traditional native costumes perform an Argentine tango, and Chilean folk dances, and the work of Andean painters and sculptors are highlighted in the exhibit, ”Just North of the South Pole.” A high-end auction ends the evening with items that include travel to exotic destinations in South America.

The Deering Estate at Cutler is located  at 16701 SW 72 Avenue in Palmetto Bay (Miami).
