Start the weekend in refined elegance at the birthplace of California winemaking. Buena Vista Winery is celebrating their 160th anniversary this year. So, it’s fitting that Signature Sonoma Valley’s very first gathering will be held in their beautifully restored, historic champagne caves. At this intimate and exclusive dinner, legendary vintners will nearly outnumber guests, as they pour rare and micro-production wines from their collections. The evening will include an opportunity to hear from one of the wine world’s most renowned leaders who will join us as a special guest and host of the evening. An incomparable range of wines has been hand-selected by a panel of sommeliers to accompany an exquisite dinner prepared by a preeminent chef.
