Spanish Wines
What happens when you combine the passion of Spanish wines with Wolfgang Puck’s Four Diamond, Four Star Spago Maui? An exceptional ‘Aipono Wine Dinner. Advanced Sommelier Charles Fredy presents wines from the Jorge Ordoñez portfolio, paired with a special menu by Executive Chef Cameron Lewark.
Twice named one of twenty wine personalities of the year by renowned wine critic Robert Parker, Jorge Ordoñez produces naturally sweet wines that innovate while honoring tradition.
Cameron Lewark apprenticed under James Beard Award-winning chef Lee Hefter at Puck’s Granita restaurant in Malibu, and in 2001 came to Maui to open Spago at the Four Seasons. Under his direction, the restaurant has won numerous accolades, and in 2010, his peers voted Lewark ‘Aipono’s Chef of the Year. The father of two young sons, Lewark contributes his time and expertise to Grow Some Good and other community based food-education programs.
