Timeless, authentic, unforgettable - a century ago The Plaza established its distinction as the paragon of grandeur, replete with its trademark passion and uncompromising service, which have made the hotel a legend. From the sumptuous decor to the impeccable white glove service, The Plaza is an extraordinary hotel that will offer its guests every indulgence. Striking the balance between its storied past and limitless future, The Plaza Hotel in New York City is the ultimate luxury lifestyle destination. Take a break from the fast-paced hustle and bustle of New York City with your wine and cheese pairing aboard a beautiful yacht!

Amenities include a world-class retail collection featuring exclusive boutiques and purveyors of fine food, as well as the spa, fitness center and salon. The Palm Court continues to offer its timeless afternoon tea, as the legendary Oak Room and Oak Bar provide the quintessential New York experience. The newest addition to The Plaza is the Food Hall, a space akin to European food halls not typically found in the United States. The Plaza Food Hall offers a thoughtfully curated selection of New York favorites and relative newcomers, including specialty coffees, an oyster bar, a wine bar, sushi, and so much more . Whether you're a born-and-bred New Yorker looking to enjoy childhood favorites or a visitor who wants to sample a cross-section of the city's best, you truly can find it all under the famous gabled roof of The Plaza.

The Plaza was built by the Rockefeller family in 1907, and its location on Fifth Avenue and Central Park could not be more magnificent. The hotel was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1987, and it has since been said that "Nothing unimportant ever happens at The Plaza." This massive complex is seen as an international symbol of modernist architectural style and contains many intriguing Art-Deco style architectural and artistic designs, and is known as one of the most elegant hotels in the world.

Your wine and cheese pairing cruise, featured in Wine Spectator, Time Out NY, Edible Manhattan, and Gastronomista, will focus on a specific region of the world and will explore the grapes, styles, soils, viticulture, and tasting techniques that will help you enjoy your wine! Hosted by a wine professional, the seasonal tastings will feature a number of different artisan and farmstead cheeses selected each week to complement the wines of the day. Don't miss this opportunity to swirl, sniff, and taste your way down the Hudson!
