Don't miss an exciting three-evening winemaker dinner series, featuring small production wines from Santa Barbara!

We are very excited to announce our next wine dinner at our South Orange County location, Perspektive Studio in San Juan Capistrano! For our second dinner series in August, we're very excited to announce a fantastic line up of wines from boutique Santa Barbara winery, SAMsARA! Winemaker Matt Brady will be joining us from the winery for each evening to discuss the wine selections and the daily ins and outs of life at a small production winery. This will be a great opportunity to try out 5 exceptional, ultra-premium wines from a boutique winery. We'll feature some Sta. Rita Hills staples, like chardonnay and pinot noir, but also three exciting, winery only selections, including a micro production, late harvest Viognier. Expect a wonderful evening of wine, food and insights from Matt and Erin. For details on the other dinners as part of this series, please visit our events page: HERE

* Please note, this dinner will take place on the second floor in loft space. A flight of low-rise stairs is the only way to access the seated dinner area.

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.
