A NOTE FROM SOMMELIER PATRICK CRESS:

Michael and I have worked together for several workshops and wine dinners over the years, and we’re sure to have an educational and scintillating banter for all to be entertained.

  • Purchases of two or more tickets will receive a $5 discount on each ticket. When doing so, click the “Two or More Tickets” option to receive your discount.

  • Vegetarian options will be available upon request. If you’re a vegetarian, be sure to let us know when you reserve your ticket.

  • Think of this as a wine and food “book club” with beginners to sommeliers welcome.

  • The dialogue is richest when we have a wide variety of experience levels together in the same room. The idea is that we are all learning no matter how much experience we have.

  • Bring a pen and a notebook. There will be ideas you’ll want to write down.

If you prioritize delicious food and wine, enjoy informative conversation, want to sharpen your food and wine pairing chops, or relish the opportunity to interface with an experienced winemaker, without pretension, this event is for you!It’s the best way to spend your Sunday.

In many ways, the Napa Valley brand has become synonymous with fruit forward, high alcohol, and overly extracted Cabernets that lack dimension. But there are some that always buck the trend, committing themselves to balanced food wines, having both the power and grace of Bordeaux.  Keenan winery, on Spring Mountain, in Napa Valley, is one of those diamonds in the rough.
