We’ve spent the last few weeks picking, carrying, destemming, crushing, fermenting…making the latest fantastic vintage of Contra Costa wines! We are eager to take a break to celebrate with you, enjoy wine from local winegrowers professionally paired alongside the delicious culinary creations from Chef Becky Courshene of Frog Hollow Farms, live music from the talented Steve Hanson, , and wine talk given from our expert winegrowers. 

We will start you off with a palate cleansing glass of Sparkling Wine as you enjoy the gorgeous view of the orchards and Mt. Diablo until the chef calls us to dinner! You will be enjoying locally grown five course feast each paired with wines hand selected to compliment the chef’s hand and nature's best while enjoying live music!!!
