She's Back!!! Switchback Ridge produces some of Taylor's Wine Shop's favorite wines from their beautiful Peterson Vineyard property in Calistoga. Y'all, Kelly's great grandparents purchased 100 acres in 1914. Kelly Peterson founded Switchback Ridge in 1999 with the dream of continuing her family’s legacy that began when her great-grandparents bought 100 acres in 1914. Kelly's father, John Peterson, helped plant a special vineyard of Petite Sirah that is still producing wine today. With two of Kelly's children now working for the winery and two granddaughters running around the vineyards, the future of this family owned winery is in great hands.
Did you know that Thomas Rivers Brown is now Kelly's winemaker? That's right, folks, TRB has made over 30 wines that have earned 100 Points, and he makes wine for some of the most iconic Napa and Sonoma wineries. He initiated some positive and creative changes that will help Switchback Ridge wines be even more refined and gorgeous.
We have partnered with Ruth's Chris in North Hills for years, and we're thrilled to be back in their private dining room. Their newly built restaurant is simply gorgeous, their service is impeccable, and their wine dinner pairings are top notch.
This will be a four course dinner that will knock your socks off, and we expect tickets to sell quickly. Stay tuned for the menu that will be paired with the following wines.
Dinner Wines
Switchback Ridge Sauvignon Blanc 2024
Switchback Ridge Merlot 2023
Switchback Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
Switchback Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon 2023
Switchback Ridge Petite Sirah 2023
Tickets Non-Refundable 7 days in advance.
