February Well Living

Montage Palmetto Bluff and Phillip Ashley Chocolates

We are excited to announce the launch of a partnership with Phillip Ashley Chocolates. He has developed four flavors specifically for Montage Palmetto Bluff and we will share these chocolates with guests as their final taste of the Lowcountry each night at turndown. For those wanting to take a taste of the Lowcountry home, we will have boxes for sale in Treasures.

Phillip Ashley Chocolates was established in 2012 with the desire to design and develop the finest, most unique chocolate experience. Our focus is on sustainably sourced raw materials, charitable impact and global distribution; ultimately handcrafting artisan chocolates that are coveted around the world as the perfect gift for any occasion.

Brown Estate Winery

Throughout the month of February, we will be featuring Brown Estate Winery’s wines and pairings on our menus in both Octagon and River House.

The Brown Estate label, Napa Valley’s first Black-owned estate winery, was officially established in 1996 when they harvested what would become the first bottling of Brown Zin. In January 2000 they debuted the first three vintages at the annual ZAP (Zinfandel Advocates & Producers) Grand Tasting in San Francisco. Fast forward to August 2021… when they bottled their 25th vintage.
