The annual World of Pinot Noir event gathers the planet’s foremost Pinot Noir wineries and winemakers, renowned chefs, sommeliers and leading wine scholars in a weekend-long seaside celebration of this delicious and storied wine.
The Weekend VIP Passport guarantees access to WOPN’s marquee and historically sold-out seminars and dinners and includes a ticket to the Opening Night Party, a choice of Friday and Saturday seminars and lunches; VIP access to both the Friday and Saturday Grand Tastings; and Pinot Noir Pairing Dinner options on Friday and Saturday evenings. The coveted Burgundy Dinner is only available to Weekend VIP Passport holders.
There are three Weekend VIP Passport options to consider – purchase a single passport, purchase a pair of VIP Passports + Ocean View Accommodations for three nights, or purchase a pair of VIP Passports + Oceanview Suite Accommodations for three nights. Upon your purchase, a WOPN concierge will help each Weekend VIP Passport guest create the ultimate weekend itinerary.
The separate Grand Tastings on both Friday and Saturday are among the most popular tickets in the wine world. Each afternoon the event features more than 100 Pinot Noir producers from the New and Old Worlds pouring in the Ritz-Carlton Bacara’s Grand Ballroom, with gourmet light bites from The Ritz-Carlton Bacara culinary team and awe-inspiring ocean views.
