20th Anniversary Wine Dinner at Wycombe Vineyards

Whether it has been twenty years or just yesterday, there is always a seat, a glass and something worth celebrating together.

This land has been in our family since 1920. The first vines went in between 1999 and 2001, the tasting room opened in 2006, and twenty years later the same family is still pouring.

To mark the twentieth anniversary we are hosting a five course dinner on Saturday, October 24. The evening begins with a glass of wine and a walk in the vines at 3:30pm, then five courses from Chef Barry Sexton of Opinionated Palate Catering, each paired with a Wycombe Vineyards wine. Sommelier Harry Jones of The Cellar by Somm will guide the pairings course by course, and Winemaker Rich Fraser will share the stories behind the wines.
