Wynn Las Vegas Opening new High-End Wine Bar in Fall of 2010

Sunday, January 17th, 2010

The Wynn Las Vegas is working along with N9NE Group’s Michael Morton to open a wine bar at its location. Later this year, the company is planning on opening the bar but focusing on more of a full-service business. Steve Thompson, spokesman for the Wynn, said “Our wine bar initiative includes producing a multi-sensory experience for our customers that includes music, food, ambiance and visual appeal.”  The new wine bar is scheduled to create a certain atmosphere for customers and “the design team is working hard to build a new experience for our future customers.”

The wine bar is being designed to be “intimate and edge” according to Thompson. It’s biggest offering is a wide range of wine from some of the best vineyards worldwide. A specially trained team of sommeliers are set to take the stage at the bar. A gourmet, chef-driven menu will be serving house-made and artisan charcuterie, farmhouse cheeses, hand-cut crudo, tapas a la plancha and mini-size desserts. All are being designed to “compliment” each other in offering and build the atmosphere of the wine bar. 

In addition, the music will be another focus of the new facility. Music that reflects rhythms from Italy, Spain, France, Argentina, Chile and Australia will be featured in the bar room. The facility is slated to open in the fall of 2010 and it is hoped to be instrumental in turning around the Las Vegas economy. Since the recession Las Vegas’ revenues have fallen drastically and have yet to recover. In the area, there are a huge number of foreclosures, small business failings and casinos are not doing well.  Overall, the economy of Las Vegas and surrounding areas is one of the worst in the country and officials of the state are trying to find ways of bringing customers back in to the area.

Since the recession, many people cut vacations out of their budgets due to necessity.  Since late 2007, the Las Vegas market has quickly declined. Casino operators are working to bring new facilities and offering to the general public. They area also putting together various promotionals and specials to bring people in. The new high-end wine bar is the lastest development within the city and owners are hoping it will spur a new group of customers to come to Las Vegas.

Gulfport Announces Another “Casino Night” of Fun

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

On November 28th from 7:30pm-11pm, the Peninsula Inn and Spa is hosting an evening of exciting casino fun! Professional dealers will be in attendance to host a night of real-live casino gambling for players.  There will be tables for blackjack, poker, craps and roulette. You can visit the casino, pay the fee and get your $5,000 buy-in chips for the night. It’s a great place for seasoned and novice players to get their gambling bugs out. If you are a new player, these casinos nights are perfect because the dealers are specially trained to help novice players with the rule and regulations of each game. You may be sent to a beginner’s table, but you will find some good education and real-life experience here. And the best part is that it costs you nothing but the simple entry fee!

If you do end up running out of chips, you can always go back to the “cash cage” and request more for an additional fee.  You also can enjoy a live “cocktail lounge” entertainment will help set the tone for an evening of sophisticated fun for a good cause. The Inn is located at 2937 Beach Blvd. in Gulfport. The entire evening is set up to benefit needy families in Gulfport and a portion of all proceeds will be donated to make their winter season easier. Participants of the gambling event are also encouraged to bring donations of non-perishable food, toiletries and personal needs and new or gently-used clothing to be distributed to the families. All donations are tax deductible and you will receive a receipt.

On a side note, there also will be an exciting wine tasting session. It will be presented from the vintages of the Karadeci Group. The group is known for their outstanding wine and their huge vintage. Take advantage of the tasting. If you like fashion, there also will be a fashion show at 8pm with models wearing “Bo-Tiki” fashions from the Gulfport’s scenic Beach Boulevard collection.  Overall it should be a great night that serves a great cause. Join in on the fun and have a blast learning how to gamble, or honing your skill!
