Clarendelle and the family company Domaine Clarence Dillon announce the brand’s return as the official wine partner of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures.

Wine for the Academy

The Academy Awards, renowned for their glamour and celebration of cinematic excellence, also feature a notable emphasis on fine wines during their events. A substantial amount of wine is served to accommodate the numerous attendees. For instance, during the 90th Academy Awards, over 2,400 bottles of wine were provided, equating to approximately 14,000 glasses.

Annually, the Academy hosts several official events where wine is prominently featured. The most notable of these is the Governors Ball, the official post-ceremony celebration, where distinguished wines and champagnes are served to winners, nominees, and guests. In addition to the main ceremony and the Governors Ball, there are various pre-show receptions and ancillary gatherings throughout the awards season, each offering curated wine selections to complement the festivities.

These events underscore the Academy’s commitment to providing a luxurious and celebratory atmosphere, with fine wines playing a central role in the experience.

For the third consecutive year, the prestigious family-owned wine company will exclusively pour exceptional red and white wines at the 97th Oscars® ceremony.

This partnership bridges the world of fine wine and film, elevating the Oscars experience for Hollywood’s biggest stars.

In addition to delighting guests at the Dolby® Theatre at Ovation Hollywood, Clarendelle and Domaine Clarence Dillon wines will be served at the iconic Governors Ball after the Oscars ceremony and the Official Oscars® Watch Party at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures. This year, Governors Ball attendees can enjoy a glass of our elegant and contemporary wines while winners have their Oscar® statuettes engraved. The wines will also be perfectly complemented with a legendary gastronomic menu crafted by Wolfgang Puck Catering for an unforgettable evening.

“Before joining the family business, I began my career as a screenwriter, so to have the opportunity to partner with the Oscars for the third consecutive year is truly an honor,” said President and CEO of Domaine Clarence DillonPrince Robert of Luxembourg. “This collaboration is a natural extension of my family’s longstanding commitment and deep connection to film and the arts.”

Domaine Clarence Dillon will introduce two new wines for the star-studded events:

  • La Clarté de Haut-Brion 2021: A sought-after white wine of rare delicacy with only 1,000 cases produced annually, La Clarté brings together the qualities of a fine white Bordeaux wine with fresh citrus and white flower aromas, followed by a crisp and refreshing finish of lemony brightness.
  • Le Clarence de Haut-Brion 2015: Château Haut-Brion became the first Bordeaux vineyard to be named after its terroir, making the estate the first luxury brand in the world. The exquisite red Le Clarence de Haut-Brion 2015 is similar in style and elegance to its elder and encompasses all unique attributes of a fine wine with an attractive profile – smooth yet powerful, tasty and full-bodied, with notes of ripe fruit leaving an impression of freshness and volume, without heaviness.

Among the returning wine favorites are:

  • Clarendelle Bordeaux White 2023: A refined and elegant wine, offering bright citrus notes of lemon and grapefruit, balanced by the smooth sweetness of pear and lychee.
  • Clarendelle Bordeaux Red 2016: A wine with fruity aromas of red fruit and blackcurrant alongside floral overtones balanced by great tannic power and delicious velvety texture.
  • Clarendelle Amberwine 2021: A complex, well-concentrated and modern sweet wine distinguished by its freshness and harmonious balance of floral fruit and acidity with a smooth finish.

Founded in 1935, Domaine Clarence Dillon is a family-owned group renowned for its prestigious Bordeaux estates, including Château Haut-Brion, Château La Mission Haut-Brion, and Château Quintus. Under the leadership of Prince Robert of Luxembourg, the company has earned a global reputation for excellence in winemaking, joining Primum Familiae Vini, an international association of some of the world’s finest wine producing families. Domaine Clarence Dillon has long been a supporter of the arts, with Prince Robert’s background and screenwriting playing an essential role in merging the worlds of wine and cinema by bringing Clarendelle and Domaine Clarence Dillon to the biggest night in Hollywood.

Las Vegas Loves Premium Cocktails: Bright lemon, subtle notes of basil and elderflower: Lemon Drop Martini from On The Rocks

Las Vegas Loves Premium Cocktails: Bright lemon, subtle notes of basil and elderflower: Lemon Drop Martini from On The Rocks

Lemon Drop Martini from On The Rocks Premium Cocktails, bright lemon, subtle notes of basil and elderflower.

A li’l Lemon Drop Martini History

The Lemon Drop cocktail first emerged in the 1970s, created by Norman Jay Hobday, a San Francisco bar owner with a knack for innovation. Hobday, who also pioneered the concept of the fern bar—stylish lounges decorated with greenery to attract a more upscale crowd—crafted the drink at Henry Africa’s, his famed establishment. Inspired by the classic hard candy of the same name, the Lemon Drop was designed to be a smooth yet tart vodka-based cocktail that delivered a perfect balance of citrusy refreshment and sugary sweetness. It quickly gained popularity, offering an accessible yet sophisticated alternative to heavier, spirit-forward drinks.

By the 1990s and early 2000s, the Lemon Drop had become a staple in bars across the U.S., with variations popping up in the form of shots and flavored twists using fruit liqueurs. The drink even secured its place in pop culture, appearing in TV shows and celebrity-frequented bars. Today, bartenders continue to tweak the recipe, but the classic formula—vodka, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, and a sugared rim—remains a favorite for those looking for a cocktail that’s both refreshing and nostalgic.

On The Rocks™ Premium Cocktails, known for bringing bar-quality cocktails to any setting, is kicking off the year with an exciting new addition to its lineup: Lemon Drop Martini, now available nationwide as a permanent offering.

This Lemon Drop Martini is expertly crafted for the perfect blend of a classic taste and striking elevation for any occasion.

Crisp and invigorating with a delicate sweetness, the cocktail features layers of bright lemon, subtle notes of basil and elderflower, and a touch of vanilla for a smooth finish. Simply pour over ice to enjoy or shake with ice and strain into a martini glass, garnished with a trimmed lemon twist and a sugar rim for an elevated experience.

Perfect Food Pairings for a Lemon Drop Martini

A Lemon Drop Martini is the ultimate balance of sweet and tart, with bright citrus notes and a crisp, refreshing finish.

This vibrant cocktail pairs beautifully with foods that complement its zesty profile while enhancing the overall drinking experience.

Light appetizers such as goat cheese crostini, shrimp ceviche, or smoked salmon canapés work exceptionally well, as their creamy and briny elements contrast nicely with the cocktail’s acidity.

If you’re in the mood for something crispy, calamari with a lemon aioli or tempura vegetables bring out the drink’s citrusy brightness while providing a satisfying crunch.

“Our cocktail lovers have spoken loud and clear—the Lemon Drop Martini is one of On The Rocks’ most requested cocktails on social media,” said Carol Robert, managing director of U.S. Ready-to-Drink at Suntory Global Spirits. “We have crafted a cocktail that not only meets expectations but sets the standard of exceptional cocktail experiences everywhere the bartender isn’t. This timeless yet elevated addition reflects On The Rocks’ dedication to delivering excellence and craftsmanship in every pour.” 

On The Rocks Premium Cocktails Ambassador Joaquin Simo

The Lemon Drop Martini is a timeless cocktail, and I’m thrilled to introduce its effortless elegance in a ready-to-serve format,

Joaquín Simo

On The Rocks™ brand ambassador

The classic Lemon Drop starts and finishes very clean and dry, while the On The Rocks Lemon Drop gently accents that essential dryness with hints of floral, herbal, and spice notes. It’s the Lemon Drop you know and love, reimagined to match today’s growing appreciation for botanical flavors.

The new cocktail is designed to complement spring’s flavors, whether as a standalone indulgence or paired with seasonal garnishes like lemon and elderflower. With its bright and zesty profile, the Lemon Drop Martini is like sipping on a ray of sunshine—balancing fruity freshness with sophisticated complexity.

The On The Rocks™ latest release is available now in 375mL and 750mL at 20% ABV nationwide.

Thanksgiving in Las Vegas: the perfect stuffing bread DOES exist – and it’s… [Recipe Here]

This Thanksgiving, the perfect stuffing bread DOES exist – and it’s brioche.  As in St Pierre Brioche Thanksgiving Stuffing

No Thanksgiving spread is complete without a hearty stuffing. While add-ins are a matter of preference, choosing the right bread is crucial. One underrated choice is eggy, rich brioche – and with St Pierre Bakery, you don’t need to go to France to get it.

Thanks to its butter and egg content, St Pierre’s Brioche Loaf provides the perfect balance of crisp toastiness while remaining soft and creamy inside, while its lightly sweet flavor adds a decadent quality that can still lean savory. Attached below is an approachable recipe for stuffing allowing for all the craveable crunch for the whole family with minimal effort required.

St Pierre Brioche Thanksgiving Stuffing

By @BrandiMilloy

Ingredients

1 loaf St. Pierre Brioche Bread
1/2 cup unsalted butter

1 medium onion, diced

3/4 cup celery, diced

3/4 cup carrots, diced

1 cup mushrooms, diced

2 large eggs

1 tbsp. fresh rosemary, chopped

3 sprigs fresh thyme, just the leaves

1 tbsp. fresh sage, chopped

1 small apple (granny smith works well), peeled and diced

Salt and pepper

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Cut brioche bread into 1” cubes and bake for about 10-15 minutes until toasted.

  2. Meanwhile, into a pot over medium high heat add butter until melted. Add onion, celery and carrots and cook until everything starts to soften, about 7 minutes.  Add mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes longer.  Remove from heat and set aside.

  3. Into a bowl whisk together the eggs, herbs, apples, mushrooms, and salt and pepper. Add your cooked vegetables and mix to combine.

  4. Pour mixture on top of toasted bread and stir to combine. Bake stuffing for about 45 minutes. If your stuffing starts to get too brown, cover until finished baking. Enjoy!

As America’s favorite brioche brand, St Pierre’s products are widely available via grocery stores nationwide as well as Walmart.
