Indulge in an extraordinary culinary journey where exceptional winemaking meets perfectly paired gastronomy. The evening commences with a lively reception featuring the crisp and energetic **Unshackled Sparkling**, setting a vibrant tone for the night. Guests will then transition to a curated exploration of distinct terroirs, beginning with the bright, citrus-forward notes of **Robert Mondavi Sauvignon Blanc**, followed by a masterclass in elegance from Oregon’s Willamette Valley. The sophisticated, mineral-driven **Lingua Franca Avni Chardonnay** and its silky, red-fruited counterpart, the **Lingua Franca Avni Pinot Noir**, will showcase the brilliant complexity of cool-climate varietals alongside thoughtfully crafted intermediate courses. The final acts of the evening celebrate the rich heritage, power, and distinct personalities of bold California Cabernets, each taking center stage with its own dedicated course. First, guests will savor the opulent, velvety **2022 Double Diamond Cabernet Sauvignon**—sourced from the legendary vineyards of Oakville—perfectly paired to complement a rich, savory dish. The experience culminates with a robust, structured **2023 Mt. Veeder Elevation Cabernet Sauvignon**, whose deep, dark fruit profiles and mountain-grown intensity will be matched with a grand finale course, offering an unforgettable progression that honors the art of premium winemaking.
