Aldina Family Wines - Indulge in a vertical tasting of award-winning Cabernet
Sauvignons, ranging from 2016 to 2019, in this remarkable side-by-side
experience. Aldina is a small, family-owned winery that pays homage to its
founders, Al and Dina Lopez. Enhance your tasting with a choice of a three or
six-course lunch/dinner prepared by Private Chef Tomas Guzman. Each dish is
expertly matched with the wines to truly express the beauty of a perfect
pairing.
Yoakim Bridge Estate - Situated centrally in Dry Creek Valley, this is the ultimate food and wine experience designed for connoisseurs who appreciate bright fruit, complexity, vineyard character, and a touch of covert opulence found in exceptional wines. Hosted by owner Sam Williamson, the four-course lunch pairing is truly out of this world. You'll be guided through a selection of delectable wines, perfectly paired with each course. The price point and overall experience are unparalleled, making it a memorable experience.
Blue Rock Vineyards - Uncover the history, beauty, and intimacy of the Alexander Valley in the heart of Sonoma County. This experience is aptly named a "retreat" because guests spend their time on the historic estate, surrounded by 100 acres of vineyards, a restored 1880 winery, and gardens. Enjoy a tasting of reserve wines and sample house-made, signature extra-virgin olive oil paired with California's finest artisanal cheese and charcuterie in a private room. The tour includes a leisurely stroll around the vineyard grounds, accompanied by a discussion on sustainable grape growing and winemaking in the Alexander Valley.
The Setting Wines - A collection of luxurious wines created by three friends. This brand aims to foster an appreciation for the simple moments in life, embrace the transformative power of shared experiences, and make a meaningful impact. The signature flight introduces you to a portfolio of wines, featuring highly-rated 100% varietal Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from distinct vineyards within Napa Valley and Sonoma County.
Trinite Estate - The visitor experience here goes beyond a private tasting and tour with food pairings (small bites). It's a true "retreat" or "escape" as guests find themselves surrounded by 40 acres of estate vineyards, an old barn, a winery, an estate home, gardens, and wildlife. Guided from vine to glass, the journey begins with a walk through the vineyards, exploring the barrel room and crush facilities, and culminates in a side-by-side tasting of Sonoma wines and library grand crus.
