Toasting to Summer with the Dreaming Tree

The Dreaming Tree wines hosted a magnificent summer soiree last week in the heart of the East Village in Manhattan. Not only was the wine wonderful, but the space was truly magical. I was 2 glasses of wine in before I realized that I was toasting to summer in the middle of a cemetery, yes… you correctly…a cemetery!

You would think it would be slightly creepy however it wasn’t at all! The event was held at the New York Marble Cemetery, which made the event cool and historical.

Moving on to Dreaming Trees…Dave Matthews and award-winning winemaker Sean McKenzie created a collection of approachable, food-friendly wines and gathered us together to celebrate summer in one of New York City’s best-kept secret gardens (or cemetery haha).

For the first time, guests met Dreaming Tree co-conspirator and Dave Matthews Band Head Chef, Fiona Bohane, as she introduced her new Recipes from the Road – a collection of dishes created by Bohane and inspired by the cities visited on tour with Dave Matthews Band. The event highlighted select Recipes from the Road dishes, including a grilled halloumi with strawberries, zucchini caprese with tomato vinaigrette, Mediterranean chickpea cakes, steak with braised white beans, and pulled chicken with blackberry BBQ sauce.

Dreaming Tree Wines

Finding the perfect outdoor space in NYC is hard to come by but there are a few secret gardens that are worth scouting out. On Monday I had the opportunity to celebrate the first day of Summer with Dreaming Tree Wines- a collaboration between winemaker Sean Mckenzie and Dave Matthews.
The event was held at the New York Marble Cemetery- a private yard (that is open to the public every 4th Sunday of the month from October through April). Guests enjoyed extra daylight hours with glasses of Dreaming Tree while tasting bites from Dave Matthews Band head chef Fiona Bohane’s collection of Recipes from the Road – special dishes inspired by Dave Matthews Band tour stops and created to pair with The Dreaming Tree.
