Aspen Food and Wine Festival

You may think of Aspen as only a winter destination, considering it offers amazing skiing and snowboarding, as well as one of the top ten Aprés-ski scenes in the world. But what you might not know, is that the summer season lights up with unique events and gorgeous outdoor sports and excursions. From exploring the fabulous art galleries and shopping at the boutiques, to mountain biking over "the pass" or fly fishing in the Roaring Fork Valley, Aspen in the summer has everything you can imagine.

Along with all of these activities, each year Aspen hosts the Food & Wine Magazine Classic, which is one of the nations most prestigious events. Culinary stars show their passion for food, wine, and entertaining. More than 300 Vintners present premium wines complimented by specialty foods from around the world. You can also join leading chefs including Bobby Flay, Jacques Pépin, as well as world-renown wine authorities such as Joshua Wesson for three days of wine tastings, cooking demonstrations, and other special events.

This event will prove to be one of the highlights of the year and will be taking place June 19-21. Whether you are staying just for the weekend or want to extend your stay for a few weeks, Le Rêve can create a customized itinerary that allows you to experience the breath-taking beauty of Aspen. Whether you enjoy river rafting down the Royal Gorge, hot-air ballooning over Marroon Bells, or simply taking in the culinary arts, everyone in your family will love this Aspen experience.

While in Aspen, you can also stay in your own private villa, complete with workout room, game room, and jacuzzi. Enjoy the comfort of home, the beauty of Aspen, and the exciting talents of some of the world's greatest chefs and sommeliers.
