Join us for La Dolce Vigna, The Sweet Vineyard Life — a spring evening of estate-grown Pinot Noir and Italian flavors at Calera Winery on May 16, 2026. Perched high above the fog line in the Mt. Harlan AVA, Calera offers a setting that feels made for an early-season celebration: longer daylight, soft breezes drifting through the limestone hillsides, and vineyards just beginning their vibrant push into the new vintage.
This intimate dinner will feature a multi-course menu inspired by the regional traditions of Italy in spring. Italian cuisine has a savory depth that naturally complements Calera’s aromatics and texture — bringing forward the purity, grace, and subtle minerality that define our world-class Pinot Noirs.
Guests will experience the sensory richness of the season — fragrant herbs just coming into bloom, bright acidity of citrus, tender spring vegetables, hand-rolled pasta, and olive oil with fresh, green aromas. Each dish is crafted to echo and elevate the expressive character of the wines, creating pairings that feel grounded in both season and place. As the sun sets over Mt. Harlan, you are invited to slow down and experience La Dolce Vita, The Sweet Vineyard Life, through wine, food and connection. Expect warm hospitality, expressive springtime flavors, and a strong sense of place as we gather around the table to honor Calera’s legacy and the pleasures of the season.
