A Private Tasting with One of Napa's Most Celebrated Winemakers!

smaller ones like Arroyo Seco—that one can begin to truly understand the width and breadth of what California has to offer an oenophile. Keeping that in mind, our upcoming private tasting event promises to be a very special treat for anyone looking to improve their knowledge of American wine: on Thursday, March 15 from 6:00 to 7:30 PM, we will be hosting a private tasting in our back room featuring a hand-selected group of wines from Rutherford Ranch Vineyards.Leading the tasting will be Jay Turnipseed, the head winemaker for Rutherford Ranch Vineyards. If there's one person on earth who truly understands the intricacies of what will be poured, it's Jay. Having previously spent twelve years as the Senior Winemaker at Franciscan Estate and Mount Veeder Winery, his wealth of experience working in Napa Valley's diverse sub-AVA's brought him to Rutherford Ranch where he currently oversees winemaking for each brand within their diverse portfolio (three of which we'll be pouring).Tickets are $30 apiece with $20 of your ticket price going towards any wine purchased from the event. That means that simply by attending the event, you have $20 to automatically put towards the purchase of your favorite wine! And, of course, we'll be providing tasty nibbles and light fare from our the Paul's Pantry food selection. Come share a great night of delicious wine, gourmet snacks, and high spirits! CHEERS!
