With the promise of Spring just around the corner, please join us at 7 pm on Wednesday, February 27th in welcoming Vine Cliff Winery for the second installment in our Winemaker Dinner Series. Meet Mike Heliotes of Napa Valley’s storied winery on the Silverado Trail, and enjoy a four-course dinner curated by F10 Culinary Director Edward Moran and Mr Lyons Executive Chef Erik Dandee, each course paired with selections from Vine Cliff’s reserve offerings.
Known for rich, full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignons from the treasured Oakville Appellation and bold Chardonnays from the acclaimed Carneros District, Vine Cliff Winery prides itself on small lots of intensely flavored, hand-made wines. With the vineyard’s history in Napa Valley dating back to the late 19th century, Vine Cliff Vineyards was acquired in 1985 and has developed into one of the premier wineries of our time. The vineyard’s Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2013 is among the best rated in Wine Spectator’s roster.
This is a special, limited opportunity to experience some of the finest wines that California has to offer coupled with the best pairing of local, seasonal fare.
