The evening kicks off with a welcome reception where you’ll enjoy a delightful selection of appetizers and amuse-bouches, served with a libation of your choice from Laramita Cellars or Whiskey Del Bac, setting the stage for a night of connection and celebration. This relaxed gathering gives you the perfect opportunity to mingle, meet fellow guests, and get ready for the unforgettable dinner ahead.
Dinner Begins | 6:00 PM
Embark on a curated journey through thoughtfully paired courses that showcase the season’s flavors and the artistry behind each drink or pour. As the night unfolds, you’ll have the rare opportunity to engage directly with the makers themselves—the founders of Laramita Cellars and the Master Distiller & Blender at Whiskey Del Bac—learning about the passion, history, and inspiration that drive their craft. From delicate day boat scallops with Viognier to rich, coffee-rubbed short rib paired with Whiskey Del Bac Dorado, the menu evolves as a celebration of flavor, balance, and artistry. The evening concludes with a decadent Whiskey Del Bac Dark Chocolate and Orange Marmalade Pecan Tart, marking the perfect finale to a night of breaking bread and building lasting friendships.
