The event, which is held on a spectacular private estate in Kennebunk, will feature French cuisine prepared by Kitchen Chicks Catering.

"We are so looking forward to this evening," said Leanne Ouimet, Director of Events and Sponsorships at Maine magazine. "I've been to a number of Cellardoor's events and each time I leave one I always think 'how can they ever top this'?" she added.
