As an exclusive to our guests, winemaker Robert Pecota will be pouring a small production of handcrafted wines from his family-owned vineyard near Calistoga, CA.

The setting for Saturday's event will be Rosemary's Long Green Park, an exquisite open-air space surrounded by the community's rich architecture, just steps from white-sand beaches. Attendees can sample new vintages, learn from the experts and even purchase their favorites to take home. [...]
