Join us for a fantastic exploration of the sensuous and expressive wines of Donnachadh Estate (pronounced DON-nuh-kuh). Located in the enchanting Sta. Rita Hills of Santa Barbara County, Donnachadh produces Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Syrah entirely from their spectacular single vineyard on the south side of the famed Santa Rosa Road. These are wines with penetrating minerality, richness, and incredible personality. I had the opportunity to visit and walk the steep slopes of this vineyard in January, and the wines taste of the rocky soil and Pacific Ocean breezes that flow through these hills. We will be joined by representatives from the winery to provide deeper insight into the estate, the family, and the winemaking.
The five-course dinner will be an homage to the cuisine of Santa Barbara. We regret that we may not be able to accommodate dietary restrictions/preferences. Please inquire.
