About the event

Don't miss an exciting two-evening dinner series, featuring wines from Michael David!

We are very excited to announce our next dinner series, including an evening at our Pacific Beach location, Drift Cafe! For our second of two dinner series this month, we're thrilled to share a fantastic line up of wines from Lodi based favorite, Michael David Winery. Heidi Daniels will join us for the evening to present the wines and tell the Michael David story. This dinner will feature 5 wine selections, each paired with a dinner course. Michael David has accumulated years of awards and praise while still providing excellent wines at an affordable price. Recently notable, Michael David was awarded American Winery of the Year (2020) by Wine Enthusiast! We'll be featuring a wonderful selection of wines, including a selection from their Alexander Valley project, Outerbound! Each selection will showcase Michael David's excellence and dedication to the winemaking process. Expect a wonderful evening of wine, food and insights from Heidi and Erin. For details on the other dinner as part of this series, please visit our events page: HERE

Each selection will be paired with its own wine inspired dinner course, prepared by Chef Erin Sealy. Chef Erin specializes in pairing food with wine, with a slightly different approach than most. Prior to creating a menu, each wine is tasted and reviewed and then she creates a food pairing, highlighting the nuances of each wine. This concept creates a dinner and pairing experience with layers of complexity and unique creations which exemplify the enjoyment of each wine. With a passion for food and wine, Chef Erin delights attendees with a detailed account of the pairing concept and cooking techniques that create each course. Expect a fabulous evening of wine, food and educational insights! Seating is limited. Please see below for additional dinner details and a registration link.
