Annual Estate Wine Release Dinner

Debuting the 2025 Estate Vintage — An Evening of First Access in the Vineyard

Join us for our most anticipated evening of the year — the debut of our newly bottled 2025 estate vintage. Guests enjoy a thoughtfully paced vineyard dinner with plated courses, seasonal buffet, and full-service hospitality, culminating in the first shared pours of the new release as the evening settles into sunset. Seating is intentionally limited for an intimate annual celebration.

An unforgettable evening where Mahan Family Wines club members and guests gather at the vineyard, where the wines were born to experience our newest releases before anyone else.

A live three-piece jazz ensemble will set the mood as you wander, mingle, and dance your way through the evening.

    Transportation

    Parking is available at the vineyard, however as Uber and Lyft do not exist in this area, we’ve planned for a bus to pick up and drop off at both The Marina Grand Hotel and The Fairfield by Marriott Hotel, in order to ensure you are able to make it to the Vineyard and back safely, on the evening of the Estate Release Celebration. Let us know if you plan to ride the bus by selecting “bus” during checkout.

    RSVP Today!
