The evening kicked off with a spectacular wine tasting – the ‘Wines of the World Showcase’ where over 120 wines were presented by 12 leading producers and importers. The night also witnessed an exhibition of iconic timepieces from Carl F. Bucherer – the luxury Swiss brand from Lucerne. From the revolutionary Carl F. Bucherer Patravi ScubaTec, the ultimate ‘skeletonized’ travel watch with three time zones – the Patravi TravelTec FourX to the enigmatic Carl F. Bucherer Alacria Swan, an elegant ladies watch that houses 1300 diamonds.
The incredible and educative ‘Wines of the World Showcase’ was followed by the first ever delWine Excellence Awards ceremony which was accompanied with an elaborate spread of fine food and a balanced selection of exquisite wines. With the who’s who of the wine and hospitality industry in attendance, the delWine award ceremony was the perfect night that combined the classic combination of wines and watches.
Mr. Yashovardhan Saboo, CEO of Ethos Watch Boutiques who was not only present at the event but also a part of the jury said, “We are delighted to be part of the delWine Excellence Awards, India’s first ever wine and hospitality industry Awards. Watches and wine are a match made in heaven and the unveiling of Carl F. Bucherer’s Horology masterpieces is befitting the occasion.
