Enjoy wine, food and jazz – and chat with local winemakers including Gianni Abate (Morgan Winery), Bill Anderson (Chateau Julien), Steve Pessagno (Pessagno Winery), and Paul Hahn (Hahn Wines).
From 1-4 pm, sip from a selection of some 200 wines and savor culinary treats from these Barnyard restaurants:
