Raising a glass to an evening that was full of food, w**e, and community.

We loved welcoming Raymond Vineyards to The Grove Restaurant for our W**emaker Dinner, where their distinctive w**e selections complemented each course on the menu.

We're keeping the momentum going as will be joining us on September 10, and it's almost sold out. You'll get to see and taste how our culinary team interprets their iconic pours, and even better news: due to popular demand, we've added more seats for the remaining W**emaker Dinners!

Coastal vs. inland w**e: can you really taste the difference? 🤔 🌊

It was answered last week at our Quench at Copia event with Andrea Robinson and special guest Dan Petroski. They explored how coastal climates completely reshape w**e profiles. We want to thank you, Dan, for being an extraordinary guest and sharing your knowledge of maritime w**emaking with everyone.

Next up in the series: Sonoma Leadership and Legacy on September 9 with Christopher Sawyer. 🌿

This Wednesday on Quench Live: six w**es shaped by the coast. 🌊

Dan Petroski of Massican is stepping away from harvest to taste with me, from Rías Baixas to Bolgheri and the Sonoma Coast to Jerez.

How does ocean proximity affect what's in the glass? We'll explore, with bites from The Grove, including quail egg raviolo, boquerones, and Pecorino.

Arrive at 5:00 for a blind tasting challenge w**e. Filming begins at 5:30 p.m. PT.

In person at CIA at Copia in Napa, or live on YouTube, Facebook, and LinkedIn.

Ever wondered how ocean breezes and maritime air actually change what's in your glass? 🌊🍃

There is a fascinating reason coastal climates produce some of the most vibrant, high-acidity, and refreshing w**es in the world. Find out for yourself on August 19 as Master Sommelier Andrea Robinson and American vintner Dan Petroski explore "W**es That See the Sea".

Together, they'll guide you in a tasting through extraordinary coastal terroirs with six w**es, including Massican W**ery's Gemina. You'll learn how ocean fog and ancient chalky soils shape every sip, all paired with gourmet bites from our very own Chef Chris Lemerand.
