Curated Experiences
Worth the Drive

Modern Barn hosts a small number of intentional events each year — each one designed around a single idea, executed with care.

— Annual Flagship Event

The Sommelier's Table

Paired Perspectives · Parallel Pours

The Sommelier's Table is an intimate, chef-driven pairing dinner offered once each year by design. This inaugural experience brings together two respected sommeliers to interpret the same four-course menu through distinct pairing philosophies.

Each course is served with two contrasting wines, poured side by side, allowing guests to explore how perspective, structure, and intention shape great pairings. Curated and hosted by the team behind one of Maine's few Wine Spectator–recognized wine programs.

"This is not a competition, a class, or a tasting. It is a conversation — thoughtful, intentional, and rare."
