Master Sommelier George Miliotes To Open Wine Bar George At Disney Springs Fall of 2017
If you are like us and a fan of California Grill at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, you may remember Master Sommelier George Miliotes from the opening team of the award-winning restaurant when it debuted in 1995. Disney has announced that Miliotes will return to Walt Disney World Resort with his new venture, Wine Bar George, opening in fall 2017 at Disney Springs.
The design for the 210-seat wine bar is reminiscent of a winemaker’s home estate featuring oak wood, warm lighting and a welcoming, comfortable atmosphere.
Wine Bar George also will include a food menu featuring small plates designed to complement the wine list. Offerings will feature local artisans and seasonal flavors – “bringing guests ideal food and wine pairings and culinary explorations,” says Miliotes.
Wine Bar George will offer more than 100 selections both by the bottle and the glass in a range of varietals, vintages and prices. Guests will be able to experience sips from acclaimed wineries as well as up-and-coming growing regions and wineries. Wine education will be served up in an approachable and fun manner, says Miliotes, and he is planning special events and visits from renowned winemakers.
Miliotes is one of just 230 master sommeliers in the world.
