Local Event

The Brander Vineyard

Cost: Free

Shuck & Sip returns to The Brander Vineyard for one last summer afternoon of fresh oysters, chilled white wines, and live music in the courtyard.

Founded in 1975 in the Santa Ynez Valley, The Brander Vineyard has built its reputation around Sauvignon Blanc and Bordeaux varietals, with white wines playing a major role in the winery’s identity. This event is a fun chance to experience several of those wines side by side, including new releases being poured for the first time.

Flying Colors Oyster Co. will be on site shucking fresh Morro Bay oysters to order, served with mignonettes and sauces designed to pair with Brander’s white wines.

Live acoustic music by Jimmy Becker will run throughout the afternoon, making this an easygoing late-summer gathering in the vineyard courtyard.

RSVP is free and simply reserves your spot. Wine, tastings, and oysters are available for purchase during the event.

$25 — Half-dozen freshly shucked oysters + white wine tasting flight

$20 — Wine Club Member price

Additional wine will also be available by the glass and bottle.
