The tunes were rockin, Our DJ Randy did a super job spinning his mix. The food was awesome and the wine plentiful as the pictures can prove. Check out Garth dancing with our friend Kelley. Too precious for words. Be sure to come to the next one all you Peeps.

Marching into spring…Gala Dinner
May 8, 2008 - No Responses
Wow! It’s taken me a long time to write about our March dinner…I’ve been a very busy girl!
Enjoy the pictures, and just know we had too much fun as always!
I’ll be getting the menu here soon for the next dinner which is scheduled for June 27th. Oh and I’m booking a super cool blues duo for the June dinner. It’s going to be a very special Summer menu and sure to be a sell out event!
Spring is in the air.

It smells like spring, it looks like spring, it feels like spring….but….it’s not yet spring. Is it going to be another one of those years when I get snow on the flowering plum and almond trees when they are in their full blossom glory? I have a feeling that’s exactly how mother nature is going to play this year. That’s cool; cause I’m sure enjoying the sights, smells and sounds now. Let’s face it, I’m a live for the moment kinda gal. We’ve landscaped a new barbecue area that will soon be planted with grass and another raised area for the herb garden. I’ll put more pictures up when all is planted, but by the pictures you can definitely see that spring really is in the air!

Our seating and serving capacity will be for 30 persons so reserve your seat early.
This six course, full service meal with wine pairings will be $75.00 plus tax per person. (ya’ll know us, the wine will be flowing…none of those wimpy four ounce pours.)

February’s Behind the Cellar Door

What a freaking blast! If you’ve never made it to this event you need to make an effort to do so. All of the Vintners go all out to make this an wine extravaganza to remember. Food is killer, wine is supreme, and everyone is surprisingly on thier best behavior. I’ve made a cute lil slide show showing one of Garth’s seminars aptly titled “tripping on acid”.
