MENU

Greetings with Estate Sparkling Brut Nature

FIRST COURSE

Apple, Speck (thinly smoked ham), Arugula Salad tossed with Aged Balsamic Vinaigrette

Served with CAST Sonoma Coast 2022 Riesling

Floral and fresh, with notes of white peach, honeysuckle, and citrus blossom. A touch of sweetness is balanced by lively acidity, making it exceptionally food-friendly

SECOND COURSE

Herb-roasted chicken topped with a cream sauce

Served with CAST Quail Hill 2022 Chardonnay

Aromas of lemon oil, white peach, and toasted hazelnut lead into a rich yet vibrant palate with a creamy texture and a long, mineral-driven finish

THIRD COURSE

Soy & Brown Sugar marinated Salmon

Served with CAST Bacigalupi 2022 Pinot Noir

Elegant and silky, this Pinot Noir presents notes of wild strawberry, cherry cola, and baking spice. Balanced tannins and bright acidity carry through to a smooth, lingering finish.

FOURTH COURSE

Steak Crostini topped with Truffle Balsamic and Burrata

Served with CAST Prestige 2022 Red Blend

Our inaugural Prestige Red Blend captivates from the first pour with layered aromas of dried black cherry, black tea leaf, petrichor, red earth, dried tobacco, cassis, and a whisper of camphor. The palate is dense and expressive, offering concentrated notes of dried fruit and spice supported by bold, juicy tannins. While enjoyable now, this wine is built for longevity and will reward cellaring over the next 5–10 years

CAST Prestige 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon

The 2022 Prestige Cabernet Sauvignon is a powerful and classic expression of Alexander Valley. It opens with robust aromas of leather, brown earth, roasted strawberry, tar, clove, and dried red plum—delivering intensity and complexity from the start. The palate is bold and richly layered, with dense fruit up front giving way to savory notes of black tea leaf, dried leather, and a touch of oak. Firm, well-integrated tannins provide structure and depth. While beautifully expressive now, this wine is built to age gracefully for years to come

FIFTH COURSE

Late Harvest Zinfandel Chocolate Tart

Served with CAST 2017 Estate Late Harvest Zinfandel

Lush and decadent, this dessert-style Zinfandel bursts with blackberry compote, fig, and a touch of cocoa. Velvety and smooth, it’s perfect with dark chocolate or a cheese board.
