Summer Soiree at the Castle – WINEMAKER DINNER AT STELLA
A WEEKEND OF WINE, FOOD & SHARED TRADITION
Join the Ledson Family for a deeply meaningful and unforgettable weekend as we honor the life and legacy of a remarkable man—the 110th birthday of Noble Ledson, Steve Ledson’s father, born July 15, 1916.
Though he passed in 2004, his spirit, stories, and enduring influence remain at the heart of everything we celebrate. This weekend is not only a tribute to his life, but to the extraordinary bond he and Steve shared—a connection rooted in family, tradition, and a lifelong love of wine.
From July 17th through July 19th, we welcome you to Ledson Castle for a celebration filled with elegance, romance, and world-class wines.
FRIDAY, 7/17/26 | 5PM – 7PM
WINEMAKER DINNER AT STELLA
Begin the weekend with an intimate winemaker dinner at the exceptional Stella restaurant—set in a place rich with history, where Steve’s father once spent time in the 1930s among friends, laughter, and simple pleasures. An evening of beautiful food, extraordinary wines, and stories that bring the past to life.
Location: Stella Restaurant, 9049 Sonoma Hwy, Kenwood, CA 95452

WINE TASTINGS
Tastings will be available from July 16th through July 19th, between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM at the Castle in Kenwood and Zina Lounge in Sonoma.
We invite you to bring your closest friends and share in this special time—celebrating not only an extraordinary life, but the enduring spirit of the Ledson Wine Club. Many of you have been part of this family for nearly 30 years, and this weekend will honor you as well.
All weekend—from July 17th to July 19th—we will pay tribute to “Noble” (affectionately known as Cast Iron) by pouring his favorite varietals, along with those of his brothers, Whit and Windy Ledson—all exceptional, high-scoring wines that reflect his lasting influence.
Spend time with Steve and his dedicated team, sharing laughter, stories, and the warmth of a legacy built on passion and family. You’ll hear the stories, feel the history—and yes, enjoy a few classic Ledson jokes along the way.
This is more than a celebration—it is a tribute to love, legacy, and the moments that bring us together.
Reserve your tasting and secure your place early—this is a weekend you truly will not want to miss.
