Idlewild Spring Dinner in the Vineyard

Saturday May 11th 6:30pm – 10:00pm at Las Cimas Vineyard

Join us for this very special evening

We will meet at the Idlewild Tasting Room in downtown Healdsburg and luxury transportation will take us up to Las Cimas Vineyard, at the some of the highest elevations of the Russian River Valley where owner David Drummond has planted ~50 different Italian grape varietals.

Aperitivo hour will be in the vineyard adjacent to the Idlewild Cortese and Grignolino vines. Sip on your favorite joyous Idlewild wines while you enjoy bites from Chef Meagan Mesner (Four Seasons, Napa Valley), and walk vineyard rows with Sam & David, learning about this beautiful site farmed with regenerative organic practices.

Dinner will take place at the comfortably appointed Recreation Hall at the ranch, and all of your Idlewild favorites will be open to pair with Italian American classics. Don’t worry, Thomas’s almost famous lasagna & meatballs will make a reappearance. 🙂

Transportation will continually run back to the Idlewild tasting room throughout the evening to use at your convenience.
