Alpino Vino, the highest elevation restaurant in North America at 11,966ft, is an exclusive and quaint European hutte offering leisurely lunches and evening dining experiences like no other!
Ski-in during the day or travel via custom-built snowcoach at night to peruse a world-class Italian American wine list and enjoy Italian Alpine gourmet comfort food. Alpino Vino offers fantastic views of the famed Wilson Range with an appropriately themed Alpine Italian lunch menu featuring handmade pastas, panini, and antipasti. Dinner service offers a 4-course, prix-fixe, Northern Italian menu with unheard-of wine pairings from a team of Sommeliers who are at your service.
The expansive, multi-tiered, exterior deck; with its European teak furniture, sheepskin throws, and coveted daybeds, is truly a unique spot to celebrate the day over a bottle of wine in a comfortable, yet charmingly rustic outdoor setting. Inside, hand-hewn beams, rustic furniture, stone floors, and a wood-burning fireplace provide a high alpine ambience reminiscent of restaurants and refuge found throughout the Dolomites of Northern Italy.
Originally a private retreat designed by a famed local architect on a historic mining claim, Alpino Vino is the cornerstone of Telluride Ski Resort’s unique and award-winning Culinary offerings.
