Don't miss our next winemaker dinner series of 2026!

We are very excited to announce our next winemaker dinner series, including an evening at our Sabre Springs location, Nutmeg Cafe! For our 2nd May Winemaker Dinner Series we're thrilled to share a fantastic line up of wines from boutique, Paso Robles Winery, Copia. We are thrilled to welcome owners/winemakers Anita and Varinder Sahi for three evenings of winemaker dinners. The story of Copia Vineyards begins with the passion of Anita and Varinder Sahi, their shared love of wine and the beauty of its source. Their shared interests, entrepreneurship and life’s ever-winding path sparked a trip to Paso Robles Wine Country in 2015. Essentially, they never left. In 2017, the Sahis’ search to find a special site to produce world-class Rhône and Bordeaux varietals was successful. They became the proud stewards of 50 acres of paradise-on-earth in the Willow Creek District of Paso Robles. It is now has 40,000 vines planted in 24 distinct blocks. In 2022, their estate grew to include 26 acres of dramatic landscape in the Adelaida District. Both vineyard sites have breathtakingly beautiful slopes, calcareous soils and strong marine influence. The vines on the Copia Estate are now producing some of the most opulent, concentrated fruit with densely rich varietal characteristics. Seating is limited for this series, please see below for reservations. For details on the other dinners as part of this series, please visit our events page: HERE

Each selection will be paired with its own wine inspired dinner course, prepared by Chef Erin Sealy. Chef Erin specializes in pairing food with wine, with a slightly different approach than most. Prior to creating a menu, each wine is tasted and reviewed and then she creates a food pairing, highlighting the nuances of each wine. This concept creates a dinner and pairing experience with layers of complexity and unique creations which exemplify the enjoyment of each wine. With a passion for food and wine, Chef Erin delights attendees with a detailed account of the pairing concept and cooking techniques that create each course. Expect a fabulous evening of wine, food and educational insights! Seating is limited. Please see below for additional dinner details and a registration link.
