Description

Dare to mix wine, history, fine food, and ghost stories?

Please join us on the Historical Tastings Tour of Portsmouth’s most enchanting and enchanted restaurant, housed in the old Rockingham Hotel on the national register of historic places.

A hub for international politics and culture for centuries, Portsmouth’s iconic Rockingham building has three centuries of stories to tell, yet the culinary and beverage programs are ahead of their times.

Enjoy 3 tasting courses prepared by Chef Cody Finch, from Food Network’s Chef Boot Camp, each paired with carefully selected wines from the Library cellar.

Our house historian is a wealth of anecdotes, both grandiose and grim, and leads tour guests through parts of the building normally closed to visitors. Designed for amateurs and experts alike.

Hosted by Cassandra, together with wine connoisseur Andrew.
