The ultimate gathering for our 30th Harvest! An afternoon of great friends, live music, and the best of Crocker & Starr in your glass.


We’re opening the library to pour the BIG bottles, featuring rare library magnums and three-liters that capture three decades of history. Between the live music, fun games and an exceptional spread of local fare, the estate is ready to party!


BIG Bottles!

The cellar opens wide for Carnivus Maximus. Current releases are poured alongside library selections and large-format bottles, with multiple vintages to explore. It’s a rare chance to taste across decades, revisit favorites, and experience how our wines evolve over time — all in one afternoon.


Explore Every Pour

At check-in, you’ll receive a tasting passport that invites you to explore the estate. Move between stations collecting stamps as you taste. Completing your passport earns you an entry into the drawing for a magnum of 1 Post — and gives you a full picture of what’s being poured that day.


A Feast Without Limits

This isn’t just a pairing—it’s a true harvest feast. Throughout the estate, our favorite local chefs are serving up a massive spread: fresh-shucked oysters, artisan wood-fired pizzas, slow-roasted barbecue, and giant pans of savory paella.


Turn It Up in the Vines

The vineyard comes alive with a high-energy soundtrack curated for our 30th harvest. We’ve invited a local band to set the rhythm for the afternoon, keeping the party moving as fast as the large format bottles are flowing.


Bring Your Game Face

The estate transforms into a playground of high-stakes harvest fun. Test your skills at lawn games across the property, take your best shot at ‘Count the Corks,’ and fill your passport to unlock entries for our legendary prize drawings. Every bottle you take home adds more chances to win, putting the Grand, Grander, and GRANDEST prizes within your reach.
