KOSTA BROWNE WINEMAKER DINNER

For over 20 years, Kosta Browne has been making distinguished wines, and is now viewed as one of the most iconic producers of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in California.

Recognizing that truly great wines are born in the vineyard, Kosta Browne focuses on the best sites and appellations, and aims to release wines that highlight the intense flavors of their respective areas. The distinctive style of Pinot Noir shines in their single vineyard wines from some of the most highly-regarded locations from around the state, and their appellation wines from the Russian River Valley, Sonoma Coast, and Santa Lucia Highlands showcase the character of these storied spots.

Please join us as we welcome winemaker Nico Cueva, who will lead us through a selection of wines--including a few gems from older vintages--alongside a menu curated by Chef Rogelio Garcia. Additionally, guests will have an opportunity to purchase featured wines at retail pricing.
