Tessora's Barra di Vino welcomes you to our first winemaker's dinner of 2023, featuring Mike Lewellen and the wines of Lucas & Lewellen Vineyards. We will be taking our seats at 6pm for a five-course dinner, with a wine pairing for each course.

Lucas & Lewellen is a Santa Barbara estate-based winery with four hundred acres situated among three distinct climate zones in Santa Barbara County - Santa Maria, Los Alamos, Santa Ynez - with more than sixteen varietals planted. Their tasting room in downtown Solvang is a must-visit.

** Due to high demand, a 2nd Night has been added! Join us Wednesday the 29th or Thursday the 30th! **
