Taste of Place with Matthiasson Wines

Nominated as an outstanding wine professional in the 2016 James Beard Awards and called the winemaker of the year in 2014 by the San Francisco Chronicle, Steve Matthiasson believes the old maxim that “wine is made in the vineyard,” and considers himself a farmer first. Taste his celebrated wines along with a multicourse meal prepared by Chef Perry Hoffman in celebration of the philosophy that “the best fertilizer is the farmer’s footsteps.”

Taste of Place is a unique dining series that explores Sonoma County’s wines through the terroir, history, and philosophy of the local growers and winemakers who inspire us. Gather with us to enjoy chef Perry Hoffman’s thoughtfully designed menu, one that represents a unique collaboration between winemaker and chef. Each Taste of Place dinner is designed to awaken the palate—and stimulate the brain—in a new way. By upending the usual winemaker’s dinner setting through the introduction of interviews, conversations, and unique additional sensory experiences, we aim to entice and provoke while creating fond memories of sharing the table together.

Reserve your seats today for this very special event.
