The JWF New South Wine Dinner

James White’s Fort Dinner Series

The period of 1870-1900 was the time when Knoxville grew from a town to a city. The aftermath of the civil war brought the railroad and an influx of newcomers and new flavors to Knoxville. In this dinner we will dive into cuisine inspired by the post-Civil War time period. Complimentary wine from Downtown Wine + Spirits.

Dinner will be served in the Main House and cocktails available at our cash bar beginning at 6pm.

These dinners are limited to only 30 people so reserve quickly.

Tickets $65/pp includes wine.
