Sponsored: VNTG Grape & Cheese Society is now open at JW Marriott Marquis Hotel Dubai, bringing together grape, artisan cheese, and chef-led pairings

Inspired by a European enoteca, VNTG in Business Bay offers a new laid-back, social space with both indoor and outdoor seating, featuring a curated, evolving grape list, shareable dishes, and a strong focus on quality cheese.

The beverage list features over 350 labels, with more than 55 available by the glass, alongside daily sommelier-selected grape flights for guided tasting. The menu by Chef Tom Allen is built for pairing but stands on its own, with dishes like mussels in white grape and seaweed butter, chicken pie with roast chicken sauce, and smoked roasted cauliflower. Desserts include apple tarte tatin, lemon tart, and sticky toffee pudding.

Cheese plays a central role, sourced from French affineur Frères Marchand, and available for both dine-in and retail. Pricing is kept transparent, with grapes listed at retail price plus a fixed corkage, making it easier for guests to explore without the usual markups.

4pm–2am (Monday-Thursday) and 12pm–2am (Friday-Sunday). Visit website or Instagram.
