Montauk’s summer social calendar welcomed a stylish new tradition with the debut of The White Dinner, an elegant waterfront celebration marking the launch of the Minuty Lounge at Bagatelle Montauk. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Gosman’s Dock, the evening brought together guests for an unforgettable celebration of coastal luxury, French Riviera style, and the unmistakable energy of the Hamptons.

Hosted by renowned Hamptons event planner Janet O’Brien, the intimate gathering began with sunset aperitifs and glasses of Château Minuty rosé at the newly unveiled Minuty Lounge. Inspired by the vineyards of Saint-Tropez and the Mediterranean’s coastal lifestyle, Château Minuty has become synonymous with effortless elegance, making it the perfect partner for a Hamptons summer evening.

Following dinner, the celebration seamlessly transitioned into Bagatelle Montauk’s signature White Party, where music, dancing, and the vibrant nightlife atmosphere carried the evening well into the night.

The launch of the Minuty Lounge reflects the continued evolution of Montauk’s luxury hospitality scene, bringing together the timeless sophistication of the French Riviera with the laid-back spirit of the East End. As summer reaches its peak, experiences like The White Dinner continue to define the season—where exceptional food, world-class wine, waterfront views, and unforgettable company come together in true Hamptons fashion.

For those fortunate enough to attend, the evening served as a reminder of why Montauk remains one of the premier summer destinations on the East Coast: effortlessly chic, endlessly scenic, and always ready to celebrate.
