Walker Homestead invites you to an exclusive evening of intrigue, indulgence, and deception. A select circle of patrons, wine professionals, and media have gathered for the unveiling of The Lost Vintage—a 20-year-old barrel, hidden for decades behind a false wall in the cellar.
The celebration begins with sparkling toasts and artful bites. But as the first taste is poured, the winemaker collapses—poisoned. Suddenly, the night turns deadly. Every guest has a secret, every toast hides a motive, and every sip brings you closer to the truth. Was it revenge for betrayal? A crime of passion? Or a calculated move to seize the Homestead’s growing wine empire?
Step into character, savor a candlelit farm-to-table feast, and work together to uncover the murderer before the killer strikes again.
