From the Editor

As I look at the final proofs of our cover story, I can’t help but smile at the memories of our photo shoot in Tuscany. Not only did it yield a fascinating piece, it was filled with the spontaneous, often hilarious moments that are the hallmark of travel.

Case in point: While we were scouting photo shoot locations, our cover subject, Gudrun Cuillo, pointed out some Etruscan ruins on a hilltop beyond the highway. I absently mentioned I’d like to see those sometime—and, in the interest of no time being like the present, she drove up to the rocky, muddy trail. Nothing unusual about that—except that she was wearing Ferragamo kitten heels. Ignoring my pleas to come back another time, she tiptoed her way to the ruins with confidence and swagger.

If there’s one thing I learned about this Austrian dynamo is that she doesn’t let life’s little obstacles stand in her way. After she and her husband, Broadway producer Bob Cuillo, bought a sprawling property in Chianti, Gudrun taught herself how to make wine from the bottom up, studying everything from agronomy to the nuances of various types of oak. The vagaries of weather, the Italian bureaucracy, and the enormity of it all didn’t intimidate her. She was determined to produce award-winning wine, and did it: Casalvento and Livernano wines have been gathering accolades since their first vintage more than a decade ago.

A passion for the business and for the land is apparent in every aspect of the Cuillos’ life in Tuscany—and the best part is, they share it with others. On my first night at their compound in Casalvento, we picked vegetables from the soil and cooked with olive oil from their groves and tomato sauce Gudrun herself canned from the previous year’s harvest. Theirs is a beautiful and authentic life that I hope our feature, “Olive & Vine,” has captured. Turn to page 84 for the full story and Fabio Mirulla’s gorgeous photos.

The desire to do great things is a recurring theme in our pages this month. In “Play it Again, Elmar” (page 98), virtuoso violinist Elmar Oliveira gives us a peek into his creative process and shares anecdotes from his prolific career, including his current endeavor: teaching. Passing his knowledge on to the next generation at the Lynn University Conservatory of Music is one of many reasons he’s considered a living legend.

These are just a couple of examples from the editorial lineup that I believe will inspire and delight you this month. Enjoy the issue!

MALL METAMORPHOSIS

J

ust what do you do with an abandoned department store? That’s a question facing cities and businesses across the country as mall after mall shutters. Related Companies, which operates CityPlace, is answering that call by bringing art to where only retail once stood.

Related recently opened Culture Lab, an immersive arts experiment inside the former Macy’s at the center of CityPlace. This flexible space features two main elements: an exterior mural by Michael Craig-Martin and a site-specific sound installation by Stephen Vitiello. Occupying the entire second floor, Vitiello’s You Are the Magic incorporates sounds he made within the building as well as those recorded at other Macy’s locations. It’s composed of three parts (audio, visual, and narrative) that can be experienced in whatever order the listener chooses. It’s free to visit, and is open Friday through Sunday from 11 a.m.

043_INSIDER_0218.indd 43

DYAN RIVES

Visitors to Culture Lab (upper left) can explore a site-specific sound installation by Stephen Vitiello (inset).

Other new art additions at CityPlace include a mural entitled Hybrid Infinity from artist Frankie Cihi (below).

to 6 p.m. Moving forward, Culture Lab will expand to include walk-up culinary options on the first floor as well as unique educational and retail offerings.

Culture Lab is just one aspect of a larger arts revitalization happening at CityPlace. Public works—such as a large-scale mural on the Hibiscus parking garage and a sculpture of a bathing beauty next to the fountain—have already been added. They join new pop-up commercial projects like the WPB Collective shops and The Shack, a mini-eatery by Field of Greens. Other components are also in the pipeline, most notably a new mixed-use area with a hands-on teaching garden located at Rosemary Avenue and Evernia Street.

This Magic Garden, as it’s been dubbed, will act as one more step toward Related’s goal to imbue downtown West Palm Beach with a variety of cultural and community anchors. (culturelabwpb.com; cityplace.com) PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2018

TOUR

Rick Rose has an encyclopedic knowledge of the Palm Beaches. A native of Palm Beach County, he’s the historian for the Worth Avenue Association, leading 2,000 visitors each year on tours of Worth Avenue and the island.

Now, he’s channeled his insight into a new book, Palm Beach: The Essential Guide to America’s Legendary Resort Town (Globe Pequot, $20). In it, Rose presents a curated compendium of his favorite destinations, restaurants, shops, and events. Targeting out-of-towners with little knowledge of the area, this illustrated tome is full of tips on where to go and what to pack (a blazer and tie for men, a cocktail dress for women—all in lighter colors) when visiting this iconic destination. Here, he highlights three of his favorite ways to experience the Palm Beaches.

1. Head Out on a Driving Tour.

“Drive the A1A South to North across the Flagler Memorial bridge, then go south to West Palm Beach on Flagler Drive, which offers spectacular views.

Legendary Italian fashion designer Gianni Versace is once again gracing headlines thanks to The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story.

The FX original series premiered last month and chronicles Versace’s 1997 murder, which took place on the steps of his Miami Beach estate, The Villa Casa Casuarina. Pop-culture fanatics can actually get an insider’s look at the way Versace lived by booking a suite at Casa Casuarina, which is now a boutique hotel. When Versace purchased it in 1992, he devoted more than $32 million to renovating the circa-1930 home, adding a 54-foot-long pool accented in 24-karat gold and a Mosaic Garden decorated with tiles depicting mythological Editor’s themes. Guests can choose from 10 suites, including Versace’s personal quarters and a room belonging to his sister, Donatella Versace. (786-485-2200, vmmiamibeach.com)

the turrets of the estates and architecturally relevant historic buildings lit by the sun in a beautiful golden-yellow color.”

2. Visit Island Institutions in a Different Way. “A personal favorite shopping experience is the Palm Courtyard at The Breakers. Combining shopping with a coffee and pastry from the News & Gourmet shop is a wonderful way to find memorable, locally made gifts. My recommendation to best experience the Flagler Museum is by participating in one of its special programs. Every winter, the museum hosts a chamber series in its West Room which is an engaging and intimate way to enjoy music in a beautiful setting.”

3. Spend Saturday Surrounded by Horses. “Wellington carries on the unique heritage of Palm Beach as the preeminent winter destination. Every Saturday night from January through March, the Palm Beach International Equestrian Center hosts Saturday Night Lights. This free event begins at 7 p.m. and features live music, food, and competition show jumping.”

A COURTSEY OF JACK HANN

Insider

AT HEART “Hey, Jack, tell that story about the time an elephant got loose on a golf course!”

Lines like this, often followed by an eruption of laughter, are common around “Jungle Jack” Hanna. Director emeritus of the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium, star of the Emmy Award–winning TV series Into the Wild, and a part-time Jupiter resident, Hanna has no shortage of tall tales.

Just ask David Letterman, who hosted Hanna on more than 100 episodes. Or James Corden of The Late Late Show, who welcomed Hanna and a venomous Gila monster. Or, spend a few minutes with the khaki-clad legend yourself to witness his lifelong passion for wildlife firsthand.

“At 16 years old, I came home and said, ‘Dad, I want to be a zookeeper,’” recalls Hanna. “Zoos are the arks of the world.”

Though he’s visited every continent—twice— Hanna finds reasons to return to Palm Beach County, and his love of the area is intrinsically tied to animals. “The main thing that brought us here was the dog-friendly beach,” he says of his decision to live in Jupiter. But before that, he and his wife, Suzi, actually honeymooned at Lion Country Safari in Loxahatchee nearly 50 years ago. The couple still regularly hosts fundraisers for local organizations like Loggerhead Marinelife Center and Busch Wildlife Sanctuary.

His devotion to conservation doesn’t just send him into Amazonian jungles—it also welcomes him back to our wilderness of iguanas and manatees. When he’s not saving mountain gorillas in Rwanda or advocating for animals in the media, he can be found biking to Hobe Sound National Wildlife Refuge and clearing litter from the beach. All of Hanna’s efforts come down to helping the animal world by educating the human world. “Education is my No. 1 goal in what I do, and at that point, conservation will follow.” (jackhanna.com) —Skye Sherman

The marital law boutiques of Fisher, Bendeck & Potter and the Law Office of Benjamin T. Hodas merged on January 1, 2018, bringing partners Jeff Fisher, Zac Potter, and Ben Hodas together in a single firm. The merger creates a firm of attorneys who trained with Jeff Fisher while he litigated billions of dollars of divorce and asset recovery cases in Florida and throughout the United States.

The New York Times recently referred to the Fisher team as a “highly creative wealth squad” that is unlike your “normal” family law practice. For select clients in need of their services, Fisher, Potter, and Hodas have combined to create a bigger and better firm than ever before.

odern-day Dubai emerges from the desert like a futuristic mirage.

Acres of chrome, steel, and glass have reclaimed sandy swaths of land. Ribbons of highway connect modest markets with world-renowned structures.

Even water is no barrier to construction in Dubai, a city that specializes in erecting manmade islands where only sea once existed.

The best way to take it all in is from above—and Dubai abounds in amazing vantage points. Perhaps the most well-known is the Burj Khalifa, which, at 2,717 feet, is the world’s tallest building. Visitors can step onto the observation deck on the 124th floor,

or go even higher to another outdoor terrace on level 148. Either way, you’re in for comprehensive vistas and a welcomed temperature drop of up to 15 degrees.

But when it comes to picturesque panoramas, nothing beats the dual views from the Royal Bridge Suite at Atlantis The Palm, Dubai (atlantisthepalm.com). A fixture on the Instagram accounts of social media stars like Kim Kardashian and the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, this suite exudes opulence. Enter from a private elevator and a personal butler will escort you through rooms decked out with gold-hued linens, orchids galore, and frescoed ceilings.

All of this pales in comparison to the sights awaiting on either balcony. Located in the bridge connecting Atlantis’ two towers, this suite overlooks the Persian Gulf on one side and the Dubai Royal Bridge Suite bathroom skyline on the other. From the

latter spot, you can see The Palm, an artificial set of islands, for its true shape: a trunk and 16 fronds, all capped by a crescent where the resort resides.

The Royal Bridge is one of Atlantis’ seven signature suites, including two underwater suites that are more magical than novelty. The bottom floors of these multistoried spaces look into the 11-million-liter Ambassador Lagoon, meaning you can say hello to stingrays as you enjoy breakfast in bed or soak in the tub as sharks swim by.

The ocean theme doesn’t end there. Atlantis’ lobby centers around a massive Dale Chihuly sculpture that hides glass sea creatures within its interlocking tentacles.

The East Tower houses the Lost Chambers Aquarium. Opt for a Fish Tales Tour to go behind the scenes, with stops at the on-site hospital and up to the Ambassador Lagoon to feed the fish. Want to dive even deeper?

Then go Aquatreking. A specialized helmet allows guests to enter the lagoon and meet

Nestled on the eastern coast of the Arabian Peninsula, Dubai’s climate most closely resembles that of Las Vegas—very dry and hot. Summer temperatures often exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit, so the best time to visit is during the winter. Dubai is a Muslim nation, but women are only required to cover their heads, arms, and legs in religious areas like mosques. As a general rule, however, it’s best to dress modestly.

For the ultimate family-friendly outing, spend a day at Aquaventure water park. Spanning 42 acres, Aquaventure boasts numerous river rides and slides. Adrenaline junkies will love The Leap of Faith, a nine-story plunge into a transparent tube that crosses the aquarium. For something slightly tamer but no less exciting, try Zoomerango, a group slide that will leave adults giggling like schoolkids.

Even the restaurants at Atlantis aren’t free from aquatic influences. With a dining room that shares glass walls with the lagoon, Ossiano pairs an underwater atmosphere with a seafood-centric menu by chef Grégoire Berger. The beverage and food program takes a modern, playful approach, with creations like the Pearl Diver cocktail that comes with a side “pearl” of green tea encapsulated in white chocolate.

Ossiano is one of 23 restaurants at Atlantis. There’s also a trio of celebrity chef outposts: Ronda Locatelli, with Italian fare by Giorgio Locatelli; Nobu, featuring high-end Japanese cuisine from Nobu Matsuhisa; and Bread Street Kitchen & Bar, an Englishstyle pub focused on the cooking of Gordon Ramsay. (His famous beef Wellington doesn’t disappoint.)

Escape with a fine-dining sensibility, Ayamna is a feast to save room for. Everything from the cold mezzeh course to traditional desserts like mahalabiya (pistachio cream topped with apricot nectar) proves as luscious as the restaurant’s exotic decor.

Between the activities, eateries, beaches, pools, and spa, visitors could theoretically spend an entire Dubai vacation at Atlantis.

But one simply cannot ignore the extraordinary city on the other side of The Palm.

Despite its ancient geography, the majority of Dubai’s skyscrapers are products of the twenty-first century. Highlights include the Burj Al Arab, a luxury hotel designed to resemble a ship’s sail, and the Dubai Frame, which looks, well, like a giant picture frame. In terms of attractions, there’s an indoor ski resort, a plethora of theme parks, adventures on the sand dunes, and The Dubai Mall, the world’s

largest shopping center. (Noticing a superlative pattern here?)

While most of Dubai’s top destinations are new, the city actually dates back to 1833, when members of the Bani Yas tribe settled at Dubai Creek. Today, this inlet slices through the main business district, with Deira to the north and Bur Dubai to the south. On either side rests a bounty of souks (markets). Start at the Textile Souk to barter for a colorful caftan before crossing the creek to explore the spice and gold markets.

Just how should you handle the crossing? The most authentic way is to hail a water taxi, known as abra. Hand over one dirham (about 25 cents) and squeeze on board for the five-minute ride. If you’re lucky, your trip will coincide with dusk, when the harsh sun wanes, imbuing the water with a crystalline elegance.

If you’re even luckier, the early evening call to prayer will beckon you ashore. With the sounds of this ancient ritual echoing through the streets and the welcoming aromas of cardamom and turmeric wafting through the air, you’ll find it hard to ever say goodbye to Dubai. «

Optimism. A powerful element in fighting cancer.

When Desert Storm veteran Lynette Bell’s follicular lymphoma went into remission, she chased her dreams to Florida and pursued a career in photography. However, during a routine doctor’s visit here, she learned her cancer had returned. Fortunately, she had access to Phase 1 Clinical Trials at Florida Cancer Specialists, where 84% of the cancer drugs approved in 2016 for use in the U.S. were studied prior to approval. Today, Lynette’s cancer has surrendered, proving when hope and science join forces, great outcomes can happen.

“My team at Florida Cancer Specialists cared for my individual needs with the clinical trials I needed.”

High Road $49,900, though I doubt few will leave dealer showrooms for less than $70,000.

But this is a different kind of Range Rover, a 4x4 targeted more at the luxury sports sedan buyer than someone considering an offroader. The only rodeo the Velar will likely visit is Rodeo Drive.

Not to say it can’t climb the side of Everest if called on. It’s a Range Rover after all, and that distinction comes with the ability to wade through water up to two feet deep or raise its body on air suspension to clamber over rocks.

Part of this more athletic character can be attributed to the fact that under its supermodel exterior the Velar shares its greasy bits (platform, engines, transmission) with Jaguar’s FPace SUV. Buyers can choose from three new state-of-the-art engines. The base motor is a gas-sipping 2.0-liter turbo four with 247 horsepower. Next up is a 30-mpg-highway 2.0-liter turbo diesel. But the 3.0-liter supercharged V-6 packing a healthy 380 hp is by far the most appealing.

This is the motor powering our loaded $87,100 Velar P380 R-Dynamic

HSE tester, and it’s a jewel. Coupled to a swiftshifting 8-speed automatic, it can punch this aluminum-bodied 4x4 from rest to 60 mph in 5.3 seconds. Performance is refined, muscular, and downright exhilarating.

One of my criticisms of Jag’s F-Type sport-ute is the firmness of its ride, which can loosen dental work on rough roads. But the Velar’s air suspension has been tuned more for comfort than speed so it drives smoother while still keeping body roll in check.

Land Rover has hit one way out of the ballpark with this new Velar. No other midsize luxe SUV—i.e. Porsche Macan, Mercedes GLE, and BMW X5—looks this cool or has this much capability. Call it a Velar hurrah. «

It started with a single vintage made in a garage. Now, Palm Beachers Gudrun and Bob Cuillo produce more than a dozen award-winning wines and live la bella vita in their captivating Tuscan compound.

At Casalvento, the Cuillos have planted Sangiovese, Merlot, Cabernet, and Alicante grapes.

Below right: An old chapel at Livernano still hosts weddings.

T

o get to Livernano, a tiny hamlet in the heart of Italy’s Chianti region, one must turn off a perfectly comfortable highway and endure two miles of what the charming Italian driver calls “dirty roads.” On these lanes, two cars barely fit side by side, which is particularly unnerving on the hairpin bends.

When the inevitable dust settles, a cornerstone comes into focus. The sign on it reads, Per Aspera ad Astra—Latin for “through hardship to the stars.”

It could be a metaphor for the long gravel road and the reward that lies beyond it—an enchanting inn and restaurant atop a hill etched with rows of Sangiovese vines.

When an attendant approaches with a bottle of wine and two glasses—“Benvenuti a Livernano!”—the effort to get there evaporates, leaving only long views of vineyards and olive groves and spindly cypress trees, and the feeling that all is right in the world.

This is the Tuscan idyll that Palm Beachers Gudrun and Bob Cuillo built—but as the Latin phrase suggests, it didn’t come easy. When they came to the area 21 years ago, none of this existed. Bob, whose parents were immigrants from southern Italy, had vowed to buy them a home in the old country as a reward for their sacrifices, but they both passed away before he was financially able to make good on his promise. He never forgot it, though, and as soon as he rose from rags to riches—a former New York detective, he bought automotive dealerships,

86

sold them, and became a successful producer of Broadway musicals— he went to Italy in search of real estate. In 1997, a realtor told him about a thousand-year-old farmhouse on a hilltop in Tuscany. It wasn’t exactly move-in ready, but he fell in love with the panorama of verdant hills and purchased it on the spot.

He met Gudrun a few months later. After a short courtship, they decided to marry, and Bob brought her to the village of Casalvento and to the house on the hill, which desperately needed a loving touch. She adored the house but was mostly intrigued by what came with it: almost 19 acres of Chianti Classico appellation rights. Gudrun, who grew up in a wine region of Austria and whose family had built wine cellars, suggested they plant the property and produce wine for personal consumption.

“It seemed like a dream to live around a vineyard,” she says. “At first, we weren’t planning to make the wine ourselves, but have a neighboring estate do it.”

Two and a half years into planting Sangiovese, Merlot, Cabernet, and Alicante grapes, the idea of winemaking came into sharper focus.

“It was a secret wish of mine that I would one day have a winery,” she says. “From a hobby, it became a passion.”

A table set per due overlooks the vineyards and forests of Livernano. The restaurant serves Italian dishes with all organic, locally sourced ingredients.

12/29/17 11:43 AM

Gudrun checks the grapevines post-harvest.

As the winemaker for Livernano and Casalvento, she learned the craft over 20 years of personal work and consultations with experts.

They then found Livernano, an estate situated atop a hill they could see from their backyard. “A Swiss guy was making wine there as a hobby,” Gudrun says. “We asked him if he was interested in selling, and we bought it in 2002.”

Once an Etruscan stronghold, the hamlet of Livernano dates back to 500 BCE. From the seventeenth century to World War II, it was a farming village producing corn and cattle, but it was abandoned as people left the countryside for work in the cities. When the Cuillos acquired the land, there wasn’t much there, so they went to the archives in Siena and found records from medieval times. They reconstructed the hamlet, stone by stone, to reflect the original plan and inserted modern conveniences to make it functional.

They planted the property with Sangiovese, Cabernet, Chardonnay, Gewürztraminer, Merlot, and Sauvignon Blanc, while also expanding to other agricultural opportunities. Though olives existed, they added onto the grove, populating it with nearly 1,600 roots. They rehabilitated 88

or brought in other trees—chestnuts, pears, apples, plums, cherries— and introduced beehives so they could make their own honey. They cultivated sunflowers and lavender for beauty, and coaxed from the earth practically every vegetable native to the region.

Now in command of 540 productive acres encompassing the hills of Livernano and Casalvento and all the land in between, they stepped up the winemaking effort. Their first vintage—a 2004 Janus—was a home job, made in their garage at Casalvento. It was “fabulous,” Gudrun says, which fueled the vintner dream and justified the need for a state-of-the-art facility.

It took almost 10 years to complete the winery and cellar (“cantina” in the local patois) built into the mountainside beneath their home at Casalvento. They learned the craft as they went, dealing along the way with the Italian bureaucracy, language barriers, huge shifts in weather (“The weather is always a surprise,” Gudrun muses, “like a Kinder egg”), and the humbling experience of rote tasks, like cleaning out barrels.

PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

084_ITALY_0218.indd 88

12/29/17 11:43 AM

Clockwise from left: The original hamlet of Livernano was reconstructed with native stone and wood; the house pottery was handmade by a local artisan; a bronze sculpture of Bob greets guests; chitarra marinara; bell detail.

All in all, it was an exercise in patience. “Good things don’t come overnight,” Bob says. “It’s a waiting game.”

But good things did come. Soon after the production of their first vintages under the labels of Casalvento and Livernano, accolades started rolling in. The Livernano 2006 Chianti Classico won 91 points on both Wine Spectator and Wine Advocate, and the Chianti Classico Riserva 2005 and 2007 vintages earned silver medals in the L.A. County Fair in Los Angeles. The Casalvento Janus, a pure Cabernet, is consistently awarded more than 90 points on Wine Spectator and James Suckling, including a rating of 94 on the former for its 2007 vintage.

“When we first brought the wines to Wine Spectator, they didn’t believe they were made in Tuscany,” Bob says. “Usually Chianti wine is tart because of the Sangiovese grape, but we aimed for something more rounded. [In our wines,] you can taste the berries and a little bit of tobacco.”

To this day, the awards are many and frequent, but the recognition

084_ITALY_0218.indd 89

doesn’t stop there. Janus and Livernano Purosangue are served at the U.S. Embassy in Rome; Livernano L’Anima, a Chardonnay–Sauvignon Blanc blend, is served in Lufthansa’s first class cabin; and Casalvento Jupiter is served on Royal Caribbean cruises.

Gudrun, who acts as winemaker for both brands, attributes this success to their process. “We age in barrels and in bottle,” she says. “Everyone in Chianti is selling their 2015 vintage for Riserva and 2016 for Classico. We’re just releasing our 2012. Aging is the key to a good bottle.”

The Cuillos are so dedicated to quality that they make wine only when the conditions are perfect. If the year was too wet, or the grapes were weak, or the sugar content was too low, they’d sell the juice or ship it off to Modena to turn it into balsamic vinegar (the shipment arrives 15 years later, another test of patience).

“Of the 15 wines we make,” Gudrun says, “we have not had one year when we made every single one of them. In fact, our 2015 vintages will be the first time we’ll release every wine. It was a monster year.”

It might not be the most lucrative choice to operate this way, but for the Cuillos, it’s the only one. “We want to leave something behind,” Gudrun says. “All we have is our good name and a good product—but that’s the most important thing.”

Equally important is sharing their passion with others. The cantina is open to the public for tastings, tours, and, on occasion, cooking lesPALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2018

“

In Tuscany ... you live in the moment, and every little thing feels significant.”

—Gudrun Cuillo

sons in the private kitchen and dining room. Livernano, a Tuscan-style bedand-breakfast with 12 rooms and suites, and a restaurant serving all seasonal, regionally grown food, is open to guests from mid-March through mid-November.

Those who veer off the beaten path and make their way to Livernano are rewarded not only with utter serenity and the hospitality of an all-Italian staff, but also with the unique tastes and smells of Tuscany. The chefs prepare food with seasonal vegetables and fruit, including tomato sauce and preserves Gudrun personally cans, sourced from the two-acre garden; honey from the Livernano beehives; first-press EVOO from the Cuillos’ groves, now 2,600 trees strong; and balsamic vinegar and grappa from grapes grown on the property. Everything is organic, homemade, and healthful, supporting the notion that simplicity is the foundation of la bella vita.

For Gudrun, that is a self-evident truth. “In Tuscany, everything is different—the light, the air, the people,” she says. “Everywhere else, you forget how a rose smells. Here, you live in the moment, and every little thing feels significant.”

As for Bob, Casalvento and Livernano carry a different weight, and one need only look in the dining room at Livernano to see it. An old photo of his mother, Concetta Uva, hangs above a door, flanked by the Italian and American flags. The whole place is a tribute to her and Umberto, his father, who didn’t live to see it but would most certainly, wholeheartedly approve. «

BY LIZA GRANT SMITH PHOTOGRAPHY BY JERRY RABINOWITZ Linda Beaty traces her love of gardening back to her childhood, when she would spend hours clipping the plants and flowers that surrounded her family’s home. At the time, her father did not consider this a proper activity for young ladies, so she confined her endeavors to the backyard.

Over the years, her love of horticulture grew, and evidence of her passion now extends far past her own garden.

Visitors to the North End home Beaty shares with her husband, Keith, are privy to a verdant wonderland. Outside, coconut palms frame the loggia and pool area on the lakefront, while orchids nurtured in her on-site orchidarium populate the premises and three stepping-stone paths lead to water, herb, and butterfly gardens.

These visual delights foreshadow the interior, where entrants become ensconced in nature scenes by local artist Alice Bear Ludwig and an abundance of live plants. In the dining room, hand-painted white bougainvillea drape from the crown molding and a few faux frogs hide in plain sight, an homage to the many frog statues in Beaty’s garden.

“

Most people don’t still love their china after 46 years, but I do.”

—Linda Beaty

drop for guests at the twenty-fifth annual Ultimate Dinner Party, a onenight series of intimate dinner gatherings to benefit Children’s Home Society of Florida.

Beaty’s history with the event dates back to 2006, when a neighbor asked if she would be willing to host in order to replace a last-minute cancellation. Beaty was delighted to help the cause, and her participation has become a biennial tradition. “I feel like if we did it every year, people would get bored,” she jokes.

For Beaty, the evening represents a departure from her typical soirees. She describes her personal entertaining style as casual (albeit the Palm Beach interpretation of casual), with her home’s stunning outdoor environs serving as the setting for most gatherings. But bringing the party indoors gives Beaty an excuse to play with tablescapes and utilize some of her cherished dishware. For the 2017 Ultimate Dinner Party, which took place in November, her place settings featured the Royal Doulton English Renaissance china she received for her wedding.

“Most people don’t still love their china after 46 years, but I do,” says Beaty, who aptly wore an orchid-printed Escada dress for the festivities.

To infuse her china with a botanical feel and follow the modern trend of mixing patterns, Beaty incorporated pieces from Anna Weatherley’s Ivy Garland collection, which features an ivy and insect design. Christofle provided the silverware, adding an old-world elegance that complemented the chic floral detailing in Beaty’s dining room.

This year marked the first time Keith did not occupy a seat at the head of the table, as he was out of town. Thankfully, the Beatys’ son, Clark, was more than a suitable stand-in. In addition to

Floral displays by Extra Touch Flowers added another organic element to Linda Beaty’s decor, which included Christofle silver flatware, china from her personal collection, and antique glasses (left).

being natural conversationalists, Clark and Keith both share a love of wine. However, Mrs. Beaty admits she was weary their tastes might clash.

“My husband picked all the wines for the dinner from his personal cellar, except for the main course, which the chef brought,” she explains.

“Clark is an amateur chef and wine connoisseur.

I thought there would be friction because the two men both know their wine.”

As it turns out, her worry was unnecessary. Clark looked over his father’s wine selections, including a 2010 Kosta Browne Pinot Noir and a 2006 Chalk Hill Sémillon Botrytised, and deemed them “perfect” for the evening’s menu.

Perfection was also a goal for Juan Marrero Morales, the executive chef at McArthur Golf and Country Club, who acted as the Beatys’ culinary conductor.

“When I found out that this was the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Ultimate Dinner Party, I knew I wanted to go big,” says Morales.

Capitalizing on his experience creating seasonal menus that highlight the freshest, most flavorful ingredients, Morales served everything from gorgeous dragon fruit to halibut that arrived from Alaska that morning. While Morales took diners on a five-course epicurean adventure through Mediterranean and Asian PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2018

“I believe the sentiment was mutual around the table: The duck appetizer was the star of the evening,” says Clark.

The Puerto Rican–born chef credits the dish’s success to his approach to flavors. “The key is creating a balance for every plate,” he says.

In this case, he sought to offset the strength of the accompanying beetroot with something sweeter. He opted for figs that he then paired with a cabbage gyoza with ponzu citrus sauce to build the desired symphony of flavors. The duck itself was prepared using a sous vide machine to maintain a consistent temperature throughout and then pan-seared to crisp the skin before being dressed with a maple glaze.

Morales envisioned and executed every menu item specifically for this event. He and his team began preparations a week prior, making necessary edits along the way. They also took photos of each dish to ensure the composition of the plate was set and could be replicated for this all-important meal. “I believe you eat with your eyes,” he says.

While Morales’ menu delivered on multiple 96

sensory levels and the Beatys’ home acted as an exquisite setting, these were not the only factors at play in the success of the evening.

One of the most exciting parts of the Ultimate Dinner Party, which has raised more than $3.75 million since its inception, is its structure. Twelve to 15 of Palm Beach’s most prominent hosts open their private homes to attendees—many of whom they’ve never met before.

“The format makes for an intimate and entertaining evening,” says Clark. “An eclectic group of donors gathers and gets to spend a few hours getting to know each other. It’s always a good time.”

“You know those uncomfortable lulls where you have to think of something to say? That never happened,” Linda Beaty adds. “There was constant conversation and, at some points, complete table talk, which was interesting with 12 people.”

With her son by her side, Beaty could celebrate an evening that equally reflected her love of nature and family, and revel in the good the event does for countless children in Palm Beach County. Like a small rock skirting a lake, this dinner party will have a philanthropic ripple effect for years to come. «

PLAY IT AGAIN,

ELMAR

Violinist Elmar Oliveira has transformed a successful solo career into a living legacy

t

he auditorium is quiet save for the rustling of sheet music. Members of the Lynn Philharmonia have just lowered their instruments, having played the final notes of Haydn’s Symphony No. 88 in G Major.

Soon, they’ll be joined by one of the greatest violinists—American or otherwise—of the past 50 years.

Anticipation mounts as Elmar Oliveira enters stage right. He looks like a modern-day musical Jedi, clad in a collarless black outfit and donning a serene, almost affectless expression. A proponent of new works by contemporary composers, Oliveira will solo on Richard Sortomme’s Concerto for Violin and Orchestra. Conductor Guillermo Figueroa raises his baton. Oliveira locks eyes with him before attacking the composition with the veracity of a virtuoso and the ferocity of a legend.

098_VIOLINIST2_0218.indd 99

Oliveira, pictured here in his Sewall’s Point home, plays a Stradivarius in concert, but will often practice on violins by contemporary makers.

“The one thing you get with Elmar is absolute fearlessness,” Figueroa says of his colleague and friend. “We all get nervous. But with him, it’s the impression that nothing is going to stand in his way.”

Oliveira’s connection to the violin was formed before he was born. His parents immigrated to the United States from Portugal, and although his father was a mandolin player, he adored the violin.

“He heard it in church when he was 9 years old and never forgot it,” recalls Oliveira.

Both of his older brothers played, with his eldest brother, John, pursuing it professionally. Young Elmar first took to the violin at age 9, which he describes as a late start.

“I started very late but I heard violin music every day, even in the womb,” he says. “By the time I actually got to the violin and studied it PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2018

12/27/17 3:39 PM

seriously, it took me very little time because my ear was so developed. I used to sing all these different violin concertos and short pieces—everything my brother was practicing and playing.”

After just a year of study, Oliveira had his first recital. The program included a Mozart concerto, one of Brahms’ Hungarian Dances, and Charles de Beriot’s Scene de Ballet. Oliveira remembers it as a resounding success, the first of many for the budding musician. At 14, he played with the Hartford Symphony Orchestra in his home state of Connecticut. At 16, he soloed with the New York Philharmonic as part of Leonard Bernstein’s Young People’s Concert series. Afterward, Bernstein said to Oliveira, “My, aren’t you a virtuoso?”

Bernstein blessings aside, Oliveira’s star began to soar in the 1970s when, as a twentysomething, he accumulated impressive win after impressive win. There was the G.B. Dealey Competition, followed by a victory at the Naumburg International Competition. His biggest breakthrough came in 1978 when, at the age of 28, he became the first and only American to ever win gold at the International Tchaikovsky Competition.

Oliveira believes this achievement shaped his entire career. To be sure, his success in Moscow put him in high demand, and he spent subsequent decades traveling approximately 300 days each year, delighting audiences around the world with his talent.

But regardless of where he was or what language the program was in, Oliveira found a home on the stage. “It always felt natural for me to go out and perform,” he says. “It was like I was doing it in my living room.”

Beyond being a soloist, Oliveira has also dedicated himself to teaching. In 2006, he accepted a position as a distinguished artistin-residence at the Lynn University Conservatory of Music in Boca Raton, a role that allows him to work one-on-one with students and also lead master classes.

“To see him put into practice what he teaches is very, very important,” says Figueroa, a fellow violinist who, in 1978, met Oliveira en route to the Tchaikovsky Competition.

100 PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

098_VIOLINIST2_0218.indd 100

12/28/17 4:16 PM

“To see how he works, his demeanor, how he transmits the music—all of that is incredibly important for the kids to witness because teaching is not just theoretical. He’s able to put into practice everything he says in the classroom, and it’s all there for the kids to see.”

Now, at the age of 67, Oliveira has greatly reduced his concert commitments to focus on teaching. “Now is the end of my career, not the beginning,” he says. “I’ve been given the opportunity to have an extremely prominent career all of my life; I need to give back to young people.”

With that goal in mind, he founded the Elmar Oliveira International Violin Competition. Held every three years, it provides aspiring violinists with the resources to succeed.

In early 2017, 22-year-old Sirena Huang won the inaugural competition and took home a cash prize of $30,000, a new violin and bow, and three years of artist management and PR support, including concert bookings. On February 14-16, she’ll perform with the Atlantic Classical Orchestra in Palm Beach Gardens, Vero Beach, and Stuart.

“There are many aspects of being a violinist that these young people need to learn,” says Jill Arbetter, the competition’s executive director. “We’re here to help hone them and give them the tools necessary to go out into the world and be soloists.”

Oliveira conceived of this competition as a way to pass the metaphoric bow onto the next generation of violin superstars—and he was tremendously pleased with the level of talent in terms of technical ability and personal style. “We don’t want people to sound like computers,” he explains. “We want people to have an enormous amount of their own personality that projects in the music.”

For his own part, Oliveira approaches music with the soul of an artist. He relies on a collection of about 30 violins to help him decode the languages of individual composers and unleash the nuances of his own talent.

“He’s like the Picasso of the violin,” says Arbetter. “Musically, he has so many colors.

He’s a master. He can play anything.”

Oliveira has played on many violins

098_VIOLINIST2_0218.indd 101

Oliveira owns around 30 violins and numerous bows.

throughout his career. There was a great Guadagnini that’s now in the New York Philharmonic, a 1697 Stradivarius called the Molitor that once belonged to Napoleon Bonaparte, and a Guarneri del Gesù called the Stretton he used at the height of his career and recently retired. Since 2017, he’s been playing on a Stradivarius made in the 1680s.

“This Strad has the most unbelievable quality you can imagine,” he says of his prized violin. “I don’t see any reason not to play it for the rest of my life.”

All of his instruments reside in their own corner of Oliveira’s Sewall’s Point home, sharing space with his bows and those belonging to his violist wife, Sandra. He occasionally

lends them out or sells them to students, but each receives frequent exercise during his daily practice sessions.

“If I’m not teaching, I’m practicing,” he says. “If someone stops learning, that’s the worst thing they can do as a musician. I’m learning things every day.”

After plucking a violin from its cubby, Oliveira strides over to the octagonal window overlooking his backyard. A dock extends into the water, where he’s spotted manatees at play and birds congregating on a nearby island. This tranquil scene abounds with natural distractions, but Oliveira is immersed in the music, thinking only of the composer’s intent and following his fingers to the next note. « PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2018

BEHIND THE SCENES, THE LADIES OF THE MALTZ JUPITER THEATRE PLAY STARRING ROLES IN THE COMPANY’S SUCCESS

Jupiter isn’t the first place one would expect to find a world-class repertory theater. Yet in this family-oriented town renowned for its beaches, boating, and golf courses, the Maltz Jupiter Theatre has earned a reputation for excellence that far exceeds its geographic boundaries.

Its history dates back to 2001, when a small non-profit organization acquired the former Burt Reynolds Dinner Theatre. Hundreds of volunteers and a few key women staged a revival, and under the leadership of producing artistic director and chief executive Andrew Kato, the Maltz has evolved into a cultural beacon for Palm Beach County and beyond.

A winner of numerous Carbonell Awards (South Florida’s highest theatrical honor), the Maltz produces every aspect

of its plays and musicals. The theater hosts 100,000 visitors and 8,000 subscribers annually, while its Goldner Conservatory of Performing Arts and educational initiatives benefit thousands of young people. All of these elements result in a substantial local economic impact. The company’s setbuilding warehouse employs carpenters, welders, and designers, while the theater attracts actors, choreographers, and directors from across the country to Jupiter.

But despite these strong creative forces, the Maltz would be at a loss without its biggest supporters. That’s why its 2018 gala, titled “Nothing Like a Dame,” will honor the women who work behind the scenes to help make the theater a success.

“

The mission and vision set forth by the board and Andrew Kato has catapulted this organization to great heights in a relatively short amount of time.”

“There are many organizations to support, [so] when someone has such faith in what you’re doing, it’s deeply moving,” says Kato, who arrived at the Maltz 12 years ago.

Having worked on Broadway and as a producer for the Tony Awards, he brought with him a high level of professionalism and skill that South Florida theatergoers craved.

“When I moved to Jupiter from New York City, there was such a void in my life without Broadway,” says board member Susan Johnson. “When I learned they had rebuilt the old dinner theater, I was thrilled and volunteered to be on the first gala committee. I’ve been a supporter since.”

“Art and culture is a great complement to any community,” says Michele Jacobs, a gala committee member and Economic Council of Palm Beach County chief strategy officer. “Having grown up in North Palm Beach, I truly appreciate having a world-class theater right in my backyard.” In her former position as the marketing director of The Gardens Mall, Jacobs collaborated with Kato and the Cultural Council of Palm Beach County to host “The Art of Dr. Seuss” and student performances of Seussical at the mall.

For women like Johnson and Jacobs, their investment goes beyond philanthropic gestures. These “dames” have graciously opened their homes for Maltz events and artists, introduced friends to the theater, and recommended new board members. They also hold an emotional stake in the conservatory’s students, the visiting talent, and the quality of work shown on stage.

“The theater is deeply meaningful to them,” Kato says.

“This is not a check-writing campaign. They all believe in getting their hands dirty and making something great of our community.”

Those with a knowledge of theater have even forged creative partnerships with Kato. Priscilla Heublein sits on his artistic advisory committee and frequently shares new works and ideas with him. Interior designer Gil Walsh has brainstormed with him about set designs and production. She praises Kato and his team for consistently dazzling audiences on all fronts.

“Andrew and [his partner] Jay [Johnson] have a deep love for the community, a keen eye for excellence, and are constantly raising the bar,” Walsh says. “Whether it’s bringing in another great show or hiring outstanding PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2018 105

“

The theater is what gives us humanity.

It not only entertains, but it can teach us, as well. The Maltz Jupiter Theatre does a wonderful job at both.”

performers and crews, their concerted effort continuously places them, and the Maltz Jupiter Theatre, above the rest.”

While the Maltz has gained a following for its stagings of classic musicals and plays, Kato aspires to present more cutting-edge and challenging material, such as last year’s Disgraced, a Pulitzer Prize– winning play that brought the theater to 98-percent capacity.

“Once in a while, Andrew does a stretch play that makes people think,” says board member Roe Green, who was instrumental in the creation of the theater’s Green Room Club Level Lounge.

“Anytime we take people out of their comfort zone, they enjoy that stretch,” adds Kato, who hopes theatergoers will mature with the Maltz as it implements a five-year expansion strategy.

The plan includes creating a 199-seat theater to present smaller works, increasing the size of its main stage, and building a production facility so the Maltz can launch pre-Broadway shows.

“Andrew is a perfectionist in all aspects of the theater,” says Connie Frankino, founder of KidSanctuary Campus and the “Grande Dame” of the Maltz’s 2018 gala. “Under his direction I believe the Maltz will continue to grow and be recognized for its excellence.”

The Maltz Jupiter Theatre Goldner Conservatory of Performing Arts is also poised for expansion. Currently, it offers acting, musical theater, and dance classes, as well as camps, mentorships, a youth touring company, and a two-year professional training program. Kato intends to double the conservatory’s size in order to serve more students.

“The conservatory truly illustrates how the arts are an integral part of a young person’s development,” says Peggy Katz, whose husband, Rick, is a founding board member. Together, the couple sponsors the Peggy and Rick Katz Award for Outstanding Achievement, which is given to a conservatory student each year.

All of its recipients have participated in Maltz productions, and two are now working in New York theaters.

Philanthropist Roberta Golub has also focused her energy on the conservatory. She loves to watch students grow in their artistry, and even does her part to teach them good values. One year, she purchased a bevy of thank you cards for the kids to fill out for their instructors, illustrating the importance of giving thanks to those who’ve dedicated themselves to helping others.

As for his own gracious sentiments, Kato will say “Bravo, ladies” to his creative counterparts and biggest cheerleaders at the “Nothing Like a Dame” gala on February 24. Although their names don’t appear on a playbill, their stellar performances promise this cultural gem will be enjoyed for decades to come.

Now that’s worthy of a standing ovation. « PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2018 107

Cookie Culture

ASHLEY MEYER

ost conversations about macarons inevitably lead to a fond memory of Parisian patisseries like Ladurée, Pierre Hermé, or Fauchon. But despite its association with elegant French simplicity, the macaron actually originated in Italy. Along with high heels, corsets, and perfume, Catherine de’ Medici of Florence introduced an early version of the cookie to France in the 1500s when she married the country’s eventual king, Henry II. The confection rose to popularity, and French bakers birthed the modern macaron in the mid-1900s by joining two wafers with ganache filling. In Palm Beach, veteran pastry chef Patrick Lézé brings nearly 40 years of experience in France to the pastel-hued treats at his namesake bakery as well as Paneterie in West Palm Beach and Delray Beach. As chic as they are délicieux, Lézé’s melt-in-your-mouth macarons, available in flavors like rose lychee, have become a giftable tradition. One heavenly bite proves that while the Italians may have invented the macaron, the French perfected the art. (patrickleze.com; paneterie.com) —Liz Petoniak

PLAYING WITH FIRE When it comes to dramatic presentation, nothing enchants quite like fire. Through the end of April, City Cellar Wine Bar & Grill executive chef Andris Salmanis is combining

and bubbling cheese—by preparing pasta in a 90-pound cheese wheel. During dinner service on Fridays and Saturdays only, patrons can ameliorate menu staples like mushroom ravioli and specials like lobster fettuccine with a hefty dose of Parmigiano-Reggiano. Salmanis employs brandy and a blowtorch to melt the cheese and hollow out the wheel. Then, garlic, herbs, butter, and olive oil unite to create a luscious sauce with an intoxicating

PBI: How would you describe the concept behind MIA Kitchen & Bar? Malatesta: I call it local food with a global flair, or Florida modern cuisine.

I really want to show my guests what Florida has to offer. We’re known for citrus, of course, but we’re also one of the largest cattle producers in the United States. We have the longest growing season in the country, and you see that in the diversity of our agriculture.

Lots of people are doing farm-totable. How are you different?

I spent part of my childhood on a farm, so I know what to look for. In the year before we opened, I built up a network of more than 30 purveyors from Key West all the way up to Cottondale on the Alabama border. Ninety percent of the ingredients we use come from those farms.

Which dishes exemplify that?

We have an appetizer called Barnacles and Driftwood, which combines crispy oysters and roasted bone marrow in a chili-mango relish. We also feature a dish called All About the Shrooms: mushrooms from Oyster Island and Kissimmee presented as a warm, composed salad with hearts of palm and charred onion petals in a ginger vinaigrette.

Did you go to cooking school?

I did an apprenticeship in Lyon, France, at the Institut Paul Bocuse, but most of my experience was hands-on. I bought a one-way ticket to Europe and traveled around for years with my wife, working in hotel and restaurant kitchens. It gave me broad exposure to draw on.

Why did you choose West Delray?

We saw a lot of potential here. We wanted to bring the downtown vibe to the suburbs, to create a destination restaurant in a growing area.

People in West Delray have always had to drive somewhere else to find an interesting restaurant, and now they have one in their backyard.

The Loire Valley is considered the epicenter of the natural wine movement, with Coulée de Serrant (upper right) leading the charge.

Nothing but Wine The natural wine concept represents a return to preindustrial practices

N

BY MARK SPIVAK

atural wine is the latest hot commodity in thoughtful wine circles. It might even be fair to call it a movement. On the surface, the concept is appealing: Who wouldn’t prefer a natural product to a manipulated one?

But what exactly is natural wine? There’s no formal definition, although it’s generally understood to be wine that is grown at least organically (and possibly biodynamically) and that isn’t subjected to any additions or subtractions during the winemaking process. Thus, natural wine is a cellar practice rather than a vineyard practice.

For the consumer, the problem is the lack of agreed-upon standards or a certifying body. You only know a wine is “natural” if someone tells you it is, since the designation normally won’t appear on the label. Yet a growing circle of wine writers, retailers, and alternative distributors are promoting natural wine, and the concept is attracting more attention.

One reason for its appeal might be due to widespread farming practices in mass-market wine, which can result in you consuming pesticides and herbicides along with your Chardonnay. Things get worse in the cellar. The wine may be saturated with sulfur to prevent spoilage; acidity may be artificially increased or decreased; alcohol may be reduced by reverse osmosis, or enhanced by putting

the wine through a centrifuge; or the color may be amplified by the addition of agents such as Mega Purple.

Against that background, natural wine seems very alluring, although the category also has dangers. Wines made with little or no sulfur can be darkly colored and have a funky, barnyard aroma. Such wines are frequently fizzy, and it’s not unusual to find clumps of yeast floating in them. They also tend to be unstable and age prematurely due to oxidation.

The Loire Valley, where many small producers are experimenting with preindustrial techniques, is ground zero for natural wine. Regionally, Nicolas Joly at Coulée de Serrant in Savennières is the category’s most famous name, and his $100 flagship from Chenin Blanc is considered one of the world’s great wines. Natural winemaking also adapts well to Burgundy and the Rhône Valley, where many estates are small enough to be worked intensively by hand. Key players in France include Eric Texier (Rhône), Andrea Calek (Ardèche), and Cedric Bouchard and Jerome Prevost (Champagne).

The trend in natural wine has also spread to America. Tracey and Jared Brandt worked a harvest with Eric Texier, then came home to open Donkey and Goat in downtown Berkeley; they make Rhône-style red blends

Bloomer Creek Vineyard produces natural wines in upstate New York.

and, less frequently, Chardonnay. Other practitioners include Dirty and Rowdy in Mendocino and Lake County’s Hawk and Horse, founded

by David Boies in 1982 and currently operated by Mitch and Tracey Hawkins. At Bloomer Creek Vineyard in New York’s Finger Lakes region, Kim Engle and Debra Bermingham are making Riesling and Gewürztraminer in homage to the great wines of Germany and Alsace.

While these producers don’t use exactly the same techniques, what they have in common is a return to an earlier style of winemaking that stresses nature over technology. Critics of natural wine may find their approach naive in the twenty-first century, but they would do well to remember The Great Gatsby. When Nick Carraway tells Jay Gatsby he can’t repeat the past, his friend looks at him in wide-eyed amazement. “Can’t repeat the past?” he cries. “Why, of course you can.” «

KOLTER’S

EASY STREET

Convenience is a way of life at Palm Beach Gardens’ new ALTON community

BY LINDSAY LAMBERT DAY PHOTOGRAPHY COURTESY OF KOLTER HOMES

For home buyers, finding a place in that perfect sweet spot—within easy reach of work, the grocery store, restaurants, places to enjoy the outdoors, and other modern-day must-haves—can be a tall order, and one that often ends in compromise. Add to that wish list designs and interiors perfectly suited to their taste, and the task can feel all but impossible. But at ALTON, a bucolic new residential, retail, and commercial development in Palm Beach Gardens, homeowners can have it all.

ALTON, which is being developed and built by Kolter Homes, occupies a sprawling, well-located parcel of previously undeveloped land just south of Donald Ross Road and straddling I-95, with Florida Atlantic University, Juno Beach, The Gardens Mall, and golf clubs and courses a stone’s throw away.

Among the Kolter team’s top priorities when bringing ALTON to life was offering would-be buyers not

only that ideal location close to Palm Beach Gardens highlights, but flexibility regarding aesthetics, floor plans, amenities, and leisure and lifestyle options.

Although the idea of a mixed-use development isn’t exactly groundbreaking on its own, what sets ALTON apart is its integrated—and intentional—mix of architectural styles, a feature not often seen in other South Florida communities. “We wanted to create something that appears to have been built up over time,” says John Manrique, vice president of marketing for Kolter Homes. “It’s not the typical kind of Florida segmented design development.” At ALTON, contemporary-, Spanish-, and island-style homes sit side by side, a mix that’s more organic than uniform, planned communities.

The choices for customization don’t end there.

Residences within ALTON include townhouses with square footage starting at 2,150, all the way up to

six-bedroom single-family homes totaling more than 6,000 square feet. Buyers can add on extra living spaces, from bonus rooms and bedrooms to offices and over-the-garage casitas. All told, 100-plus structural options allow owners to personalize their homes. “We have an interactive floor-plan tool on our website,” says Manrique. “So you can build your ideal space, bring it in to us, and say, ‘Hey, this is what I’m looking for.’” Buyers can also work with ALTON representatives to choose cabinets, countertops, light fixtures, and other finishes tailored to their liking. and a variety of sports courts. veloped by Kolter Homes, Alton opened a year ago and “The number of options is fantastic.” s established itself as Palm Beach Gardens’ landmark

Aesthetics aside, homes within ALTON—a Navelopment that combines the best in recreation, business, tional Green Building Standard-certified community— are energy efficient, as well. “A lot of our residents have mmunity and residential living. been amazed that they’re in 2,500- or 3,000-squarefoot homes TON’s pedestrian-friendly design encourages walkingand their electric bill is a hundred bucks,” says Manrique, citing spray-foam insulation and lowd cycling with an extensive trail system and emissivity windows among the homes’ many green de pathways that connect homes features. and Low volatile organic compound carpets and ghborhoods with parks, playgrounds,paint come standard, and fresh-air intake systems with insulated, sealed-duct conditioned air distribunned restaurants, shops, natural areas tion ensure clean indoor air quality and prevent issues d public spaces. Conveniently with mold. “Not only are [the homes] efficient, but ced park benches and relaxing they’re healthy too,” adds Manrique.

In an area where days are often planned around traffic, ALTON also offers residents welcome respite from clogged interstate and highways thanks to its parks and pathways that lead to future Alton Town Center retail and commercial occupants such as Publix, Starbucks, L.A. Fitness, and PetSmart. (Notably, United Technologies Corporation will move its operations from Connecticut to ALTON’s northwestern corner in 2018, bringing a whole new crop of innovators and executives with it.) Likewise, residents can forget about the rush to make it to yoga or spin.

The community clubhouse grants access to on-demand workout classes, in addition to pickleball, basketball, beach volleyball, and tennis courts.

“ALTON is designed for socialization,” says Manrique. “Within about a thousand feet of every home, there’s a green space. The community has very wide walkways, and therefore great walkability. That’s what we want to encourage more than anything—to leave the car at home and walk to go dining, to grab a cup of coffee, to meet up with neighbors, or to the park where all the kids play.” Thanks to ALTON’s inclusive design, for its homeowners, that’s never been easier to do.

ABOUT-FACE Interior designer Joseph Pubillones married retro with contemporary to establish a hip haven within this North Palm Beach condominium. Tasked with creating a space reminiscent of a library or a smoking room but for the new millennium, Pubillones took inspiration from the owner’s assemblage of antique portraits. “The question at hand was how to [incorporate] the collection with the modern surroundings,” he says. “In the end, the portraits were arranged in a seemingly haphazard manner as they would have been in a gallery, [situated] within a geometric form for an edge.” The grouping sits above a vintage sofa outfitted in “Everywhere Pewter,” a Kravet fabric by Thom Filicia, and sprinkled with blue, white, and marbleized pillows. The wool and banana silk shag rug provides a nice contrast to a pair of red-orange chairs, also ensconced in a Kravet fabric called “Chic Velour Shell.” The mirrored coffee table, Y Lighting chandelier, and free-form side tables made of icy wood and iron legs complete the stylish scene.

Celebrate THE SEASONS

Reinvent home decor all year-round with these easy expert tips

FALL DAILY: Falling Bird

By Liza Grant Smith Former Vogue magazine staffer and fashion show producer turned Palm Beach mom Nicole Munder was frustrated with how cumbersome entertaining had become in terms of effort and investment. As a hostess who prides herself on never setting the same table twice, she went on the hunt for ways to streamline the planning process. She wondered: If you can easily change your clothes on a daily basis, why can’t you do the same with decor?

As a solution, Munder launched Tinge Daily, a homegoods company that offers clear acrylic placemats that can be filled with durable, reusable inserts (aptly called Dailies) that come in a variety of patterns and colors.

Tinge products allow hosts to update a table at a moment’s notice to match the theme, mood, or color palette of any event or dining occasion. These creations have

FALL “Fall in South Florida feels different from the season in my Midwestern hometown, although I channel the warmth and comfort associated with the changing colors and coolness in the air. I prefer warm tones, golden hues, and distressed wood when I select my accents.

Coffee-table books designed to promote conversation are stacked in well-edited piles down the middle of the table. Florals and candles sit upon and around the books with an oversized feather tucked inside each napkin.”

WINTER SUMMER DAILY: Pink Cabana Stripe

SPRING “When Spring arrives, I celebrate vibrant greens and vivid florals that serve as a dynamic contrast to our predominately white and gray home. The mood is light and airy with yellow, pink, and green as my main accent hues to a white backdrop. Potted lavender plants line the table with squares of live, green grass placed thoughtfully in between wood trays filled with moss-covered balls that become sleek accents to add geometric intrigue.”

“Metallic, ceramic Christmas trees, wooden reindeer, and ornaments filled with silver and gold Hershey’s Kisses run down the middle of the table. I like to bring in traditional holiday patterns, like plaid, as well as tried-and-true ball ornaments to create exciting color combinations and a mix of old and new. If I really crave a playful holiday table, I pile Starbrite red-and-white mints down the middle to act as a runner.” « WINTER DAILY: Deck The Halls

SPRING DAILY: Signature Warm Palm Leaf

earned Munder a growing number of consumer devotees, as well as a spot on HSN. Tinge Daily is now available online at tingedaily.com or locally at C. Orrico in Palm Beach.

For Munder, effortless entertaining is a year-round endeavor. With that in mind, she spoke with PBI about her inspiration for dressing the table to fit each season.

“During the summer, days are longer, our home is full of kids, and the barbecue is overworked.

Embracing bright, bold colors, such as fuchsia and citrus, enlivens our dining area and adds to the vibrancy of our home and mood. While events that include younger ones may entail a white Kraft paper tablecloth and an art supply centerpiece, an over-21 gathering gets a more grown-up treatment with individual bottles of Champagne and large metallic accents like gold shells that add a touch of glam.”

WATERFRONT PROPERTIES

Brings Sellers Direct Access To Foreign Homebuyers

Waterfront Properties’ Rob Thomson, Traci DeGeorge and Toni Hollis with Mayfair International Realty’s Nick Churton and Annette Reeve

How do we reach foreign buyers who are spending $24.2 billion annually on Florida real estate purchases?

Waterfront Properties’ Owner Rob Thomson answered that question, for all practical purposes, by getting a dedicated central London office.

Shown in the photo above is Waterfront Properties’ pending sale at 1045 South Ocean Boulevard in Palm Beach.

PROMOTION

Mayfair-PBI.indd 2-3

Through an exclusive partnership with London-based Mayfair International Realty, Waterfront creates unparalleled European exposure for all its sellers’ properties.

“We put sellers’ homes in front of international buyers using several different approaches,” Thomson commented. “With Mayfair, we have a team on the ground across Europe marketing our sellers’ properties direct to these buyers.” His reasoning was straightforward.

“The more the right buyers see and appreciate our sellers’ properties, the more likely it is these properties sell quickly and at the right price.”

Waterfront Properties’ newest office in Palm Beach— in addition to its offices in Stuart, Jupiter, North Palm Beach and Delray Beach—is the only Palm Beach real estate office to which Mayfair International’s 376 European offices now refer all foreign buyers seeking homes in Waterfront Properties’ market area.

To ensure Waterfront’s London-based team members truly understand and appreciate the stunning, singular nature of the properties and the communities it is marketing, Waterfront regularly hosts Mayfair for private showings of sellers’ properties. In December, Mayfair International’s Managing Director Nick Churton and Operations Director Annette Reeve joined Thomson and his teams in Stuart, Jupiter and Palm Beach for a day of private showings in each location.

Rob Thomson touted the exclusivity of the relationship. “This isn’t something that other brokers in our area do or can do. Mayfair will not align with more than one broker in each market.” Simply put, this is one more resource Waterfront brings sellers that other local brokerages cannot replicate.

Thomson said. “We chose each other because of our complimentary strengths.” Waterfront is well known for its award-winning real estate technology systems and robust Internet marketing. The company recently received the international award for Best Website Innovation from LRE® during the 22nd Annual Fall Conference, held in Toronto, Canada.

“Our Internet innovation is the best in the business,” Thomson said. “We do a great job of putting sellers’ properties in front of buyers internationally, using the Internet. Still, having a dedicated team on the ground, speaking from a position of familiarity to be able to explain a property and a community’s best attributes, is an invaluable advantage to our sellers.”

When marketing foreign buyers, Waterfront Properties does not concentrate on Europe alone. Canadian buyers are also an important element in its exposure marketing efforts. While Canada is the No. 2 international investor in U.S. property, Florida is the most popular state among Canadian investors. Of the nearly $20 billion spent annually on U.S. real estate purchases, $7 billion was spent in Florida, much of that concentrated in Waterfront Properties’ markets.

In late 2017, Waterfront Properties traveled to Toronto where it spent time with a leading group of Canadian brokers and agents. During the visit, Waterfront successfully marketed several properties from each of its Florida markets.

Rob Thomson broke it down, saying, “Real estate at every level is about exposure. Everything we do is focused on exposing our sellers’ properties to as many of the right buyers as possible. It does not matter where they are in the world. We go to them.”

Each of the 50 European countries has its own customs that impact how real estate business is transacted.

Having a Waterfront Properties Mayfair colleague local to those European populations provides a personal advocate for sellers’ Florida properties.

{HIGH FLYING

Imagine feeling weightless and gliding up to 18 feet above the Intracoastal, spinning in circles and doing backflips. No, this isn’t an out-of-body experience; this is flyboarding—and it’s insanely fun. As with snowboarding or wakeboarding, the heels, toes, and hips are the mechanisms for movement. Jet Skis provide the power via a pipe that distributes water flow from the impeller to the bottom of the board, allowing the water pressure to effortlessly lift the rider into the air. At Flyboard Boca, certified instructors control the maximum height of the flyboarder and deliver step-by-step instructions via waterproof Bluetooth helmets. While this watersport may appear to defy the laws of gravity, it’s actually so easy almost anyone ages 10 and older can pick it up in under 30 minutes. “It’s much more mental than it is physical,” explains instructor Rush Bragg. “If you stay relaxed, look straight ahead, and listen to directives, you’ll be flying in no time.” (561-299-1780, flyboardboca.com)

Boutique wellness practices and centers are cropping up in Palm Beach County, offering concierge services and holistic therapies focused on preventative medicine. Here are a few worth checking out.

One-Stop HEALTH CARE ON DEMAND

With its spa-like setting, Holistic Integrated Health is a doctor’s office patients wouldn’t mind waiting in—but they’ll never have to. The members-only concierge medical facility serves a maximum of 200 patients, providing each one with 24/7 access to Ivy League–educated doctors no matter where they are in the world. A ski accident in Aspen or Chamonix? Not to worry: HIH’s physicians will coordinate with the local hospital team, fly out to be at your bedside, or provide virtual face-time via telemedicine. The center’s services also include urgent care, X-rays, CT scans, home sleep apnea tests, and new technology for preventative health, such as EndoPAT tests that determine early signs of heart trouble. “In this community, money is no object, but time is precious,” says Suzanne Hoffman, HIH’s director of operations. “We respect and value [patients’] time. No one is ever rushed.”

cal clinic with a state-of-the art fitness center to ensure clients are in the best shape—inside and out. “You normally have to go see your doctor, then go to the gym, see your massage therapist, your facialist, then your cosmetic surgeon,” says founder and CEO Alexander Catucci. “We do everything under one roof.” Following an intensive health assessment that includes bloodwork, the on-site medical team develops a plan for nutrition, one-on-one sessions with a personal trainer, and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, if applicable. Additional services at BioMetrix, which opened in late 2017, encompass massage therapy, IV infusions, Botox, and an ozone sauna therapy that oxygenates the body and is believed to boost the immune system.

BETTER WITH AGE

Dr. Bloom with his colleague, Dr. Cecelia Lacayo

Tired of reactively treating patients in his field of cardiology, Dr. Martin G. Bloom established The Biostation in 2013 with the mission of addressing aging from multiple standpoints. Armed with a fellowship from the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, Bloom analyzes the health of new patients with bloodwork screenings that test for more than 40 biomarkers. This creates an individual’s unique “BioID” that leads to personalized recommendations to remedy issues with diet, exercise, sleep, and sexual health. Bloom, along with an assigned patient advocate, guides clients through options to help them feel and look their best, which may include a range of services such as supplements, testosterone therapy, and nutrition counseling, among others.

FUEL FOR FIT: BEST GOURMET

CATERED FIT: BEST VEGAN Editor’s

The former executive chef at The Breakers’ Flagler Steakhouse and The Italian Restaurant, John Savarese executes fine dining–quality dishes, minus the butter, cream, gluten, soy, and refined sugar. Subscribers can expect elevated ingredients like center-cut Scottish salmon as well as comprehensive nutrition labels and dry ice–padded deliveries.

Fuel for Fit also houses a grab-and-go area at its Lantana facility. (561-714-7844, fuelforfitfl.com)

Founder (and recently converted vegan) Adam Friden’s food delivery service is one of the most well-established in South Florida. Its menu changes daily and offers traditional, paleo, vegetarian, and vegan selections such as white bean chili with ancient grains and cinnamon almond cream. Members can also add cold-brew coffee, juices, snacks, desserts, and kids’ meals to orders. (855-4002348, cateredfit.com)

FARM TO FORK MEALS: BEST ORGANIC Le Cordon Bleu–trained chef Michael Panza focuses on organic produce and meat to make high-quality vegetarian, vegan, paleo, and “fit” portion-controlled meals. Not all food fares well in the microwave, so Farm to Fork utilizes packaging that allows dishes to be reheated in the oven. (954-371-2197, farmtoforkmeals.com)

FIT FOOD FRESH: BEST FOR BUSY BEES Chef Fernando Lemus recreates restaurant favorites with a healthy spin, sourcing as many local ingredients as possible. His scratch kitchen makes creative options for all diets, like vegan saffron risotto, as well as crave-worthy salads that change with the seasons. Because participants pay per dish and there are no order minimums, this program provides the most flexibility. (866-600-4778, fitfoodfresh.com)

Balance DON’T SWEAT IT

THE HAIR GRAFTING/TRANSPLANT PROCESS Hair loss occurs in more than 60% of men and in approximately 10% of women. Baldness is often blamed on poor circulation to the scalp, vitamin deficiencies, effect of hormones, dandruff and even excessive hat wearing. All of these theories have been disproved.

The hair transplant surgery is performed to restore hair to areas of the scalp that are bald or have thinning hair.

The surgeon cleanses your scalp and numbs the area to the back of your head. Your doctor will choose one of two methods for the transplant: follicular unit strip surgery (FUSS) or follicular unit extraction (FUE).

FUE can be done in a single or several sittings. It is a manual and time taking process, but gives very natural results and leaves behind no linear scars. With FUSS, the surgeon removes a 6 to 10 inch strip of skin from the back of your head, which is used as donor for the precious hair follicles, and the scalp is carefully stitched together.

It’s normal for the transplanted hair to fall out two to three weeks after the procedure, as this makes way for new hair growth. Most people will see about 90% new hair growth 6-9 months after surgery.

INTERNATIONAL INVESTING How—and when—to diversify with international and emerging market stocks

By Judy Martel

T

he soaring U.S. stock market in 2017 was like catnip to investors who seemed unable to stay away. International investments were often bypassed in the buying frenzy—a shortsighted move, according to Mark Del Pezzo, a chartered financial analyst and instructor in Florida International University’s department of finance. “Overall, in the world market capitalization of stocks, 50 percent are international,” he says. “U.S.-focused investors are missing out on half of the world.”

HOW MUCH IS ENOUGH? Diversification among asset classes is the best way to hedge against the possibility that any one asset class will plummet in value and bring

down the entire portfolio.

Although international assets play a role in every portfolio, personal circumstance and time horizon will determine the percentage of your holdings. The amount can range from a conservative 5 percent to a more aggressive 35 percent and up.

Retirees and those who depend on investment income should lean toward a smaller allocation, Del Pezzo advises, with perhaps 10 to 20 percent in international investments. “It’s conservative but still gives investors some exposure to international growth,” he says.

International stocks in many of the established European companies pay higher dividends than U.S. companies. It’s not uncommon for some to deliver 4 to 5 percent, versus the overall average dividend payment of 2 to 3 percent on the U.S. Standard & Poor’s 500 stock index. While 5 percent might still seem a tad low for investors seeking steady income, it is generally higher than a safe bond portfolio.

Young investors with a long time horizon can be aggressively invested in international and emerging market equities because they have the time to weather the market swings. Emerging markets are those countries with economies that are growing but are not as developed as the U.S. or Europe. Typically, they are volatile and react to current news headlines. “When they correct, they correct a lot,” Del Pezzo says, but when they are on an upswing, they usually grow faster than developed economies.

But there are extra risks with international investments, warns Del

184-WEALTH-0218.indd 184

12/27/17 3:21 PM

Pezzo. For that reason, he recommends actively managing funds for both international and emerging markets. “There are too many idiosyncratic anomalies in these markets, plus there is also currency risk,” he says.

Currency risk is the chance that the emerging or international currency will fall in relation to the U.S. dollar. The risk is especially important in unstable emerging market countries, but even the relatively stable euro has weakened against the dollar. Experienced managers know how to assess and hedge the risks; investors need to be alert and not choose their investments based solely on high returns.

Because of the volatility, retirees are advised to keep their allocation to emerging markets very small, says Del Pezzo. Foreign bonds are also not a good bet for those depending on a relatively reliable investment income because the currency risk is even higher than it is with international stocks.

Those with years to withstand the ups and downs should go ahead and invest and not try to time the market, he advises.

Outsize gains in the U.S. market may have thrown the portfolio off balance and exposed investors to risk.

Ballet Palm Beach will put a pirouette on one of the greatest works of American literature when it stages Gatsby, February 24 and 25.

Based on F. Scott Fitzgerald’s 1925 novel The Great Gatsby, this original ballet tells the story of the enigmatic Jay Gatsby, his forlorn love, Daisy Buchanan, and his curious neighbor, Nick Carraway, set against the backdrop of the Roaring ’20s. Colleen Smith, the company’s artistic director, choreographed Gatsby, which features costumes by Elisa Saether and a score

by George Gershwin and Django Rheinhart, among others. Ballet Palm Beach premiered the two-hour-long piece in 2016 and is reviving it with Tyveze Littlejohn in the titular role and Lily Ojea Loveland as Daisy. Performances will take place at Benjamin Hall at The Benjamin School in Palm Beach Gardens and are scheduled for Saturday at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., and Sunday at 4 p.m. (561-814-5598, balletpalmbeach.org)

LAND BEFORE TIME

COLLECTION OF EDWARD AND DEBORAH POLLACK

Royal Poinciana

Henry Flagler is often credited as the founding father of Palm Beach, but he wasn’t the first advocate for our little slice of paradise. That distinction goes to artist Laura Woodward, who pushed Flagler to extend his railroad farther south and establish the Royal Poinciana Hotel. Originally from upstate New York, Woodward honed her skills as a member of the Hudson River and White Mountain schools, painting the glorious landscapes of the upper East Coast. In the 1880s, she began summering at Flagler’s Ponce de Leon Hotel but was disappointed in St. Augustine’s lack of tropical foliage. She then meandered down to Jupiter and Palm Beach, where she found inspiration in the rugged swamplands and lush jungles full of exotic wildlife like panthers and alligators.

Intoxicated by this natural beauty, Woodward shared her oil paintings and watercolors with Flagler, who agreed to expand to the area. The Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens explores Woodward’s lasting legacy in a new exhibition, “Behold, A New Eden: Laura Woodward and the Creation of Palm Beach.” On display beginning February 10, this collection depicts spots between Jupiter and Miami, offering a retrospective look at South Florida in all its unspoiled splendor.

BY A HAIR

Art has the remarkable ability to give voices to the voiceless.

Since 1984, the Urban Bush Women have spread untold stories of disenfranchised communities through the universal language of dance. The Brooklyn-based troupe has toured across the country and around the world engaging audiences on subjects of race, gender, and economic inequality, while simultaneously fostering women choreographers of color. On February 16 and 17, UBW will bring its latest work, Hair and Other Stories, to the Kravis Center Rinker Playhouse. This full-length presentation examines issues intrinsic to the black experience as manifested in movement and personal narratives. Developed with help from comedy writer Keisha Zollar, Hair tackles concepts like the natural hair movement with an acute sense of self, including a look at “Hair Hell Moments” as endured on a cramped elevator.

Those who want to learn more about UBW and its mission can attend a post-performance talk on February 16, led by photographer and former New York City Ballet dancer Steven Caras. West Palm Beach (561-832-7469, kravis.org)

Matthew Farmer There have been two constants in Matthew Farmer’s life: singing and the Palm Beaches. Farmer was born and raised in Palm Beach County and attended the Palm Beach County School of the Arts (now the Dreyfoos School of the Arts) as a vocal major. After a brief stint in the boy band 5th Ring in 2000, he went on to perform in numerous productions at Walt Disney World and also as a vocalist for Celebrity and Seabourn cruises. Farmer returned to South Florida, settled in Delray Beach, and is now the artistic director at the cultural venue Old School Square. When he’s not stretching his creative muscles at work, he can be found traveling, enjoying time out on the water, or supporting Compass, an LGBTQ organization based in Lake Worth. —Mary Murray HIDDEN TALENTS I play the piano and cello, and have also conducted an orchestra with a choir.
