Join us on Friday, July 26, 2019 at 6:30 as we welcome the team from Ernest Vineyards in Sonoma. Since we know you’re wondering: Yes, there was a man named Ernest. He was an entrepreneur, a risk-taker and a role model for his grandson, Todd Gottula, who founded the winery with his wife, Erin Brooks, back in 2012. Today, the “Ernest” in their name stands for more than one man. It’s about integrity in the fruit they use and the people they know. It’s about restraint, about how ego drives nothing they do.

The program will include the beloved Clarinet Quintet by Johannes Brahms, and will start with David Bruce's Gumboots -- a work composed in 2008, that has been performed and championed by Decoda all over the world. The work, also a clarinet quintet, was inspired by South African gumboot dancing.

Join Us! August 18th at 6:30 as we welcome the team from Brown Estate in Napa Valley. Brown Estate is truly a family affair. The property was purchased by their parents in 1980 and planted to vinifera grapes. In 1995, the ‘kids:’ Coral, Deneen and David, got the notion to make their own wine. 2016 marked their 20th vintage! Today, they make gorgeous, layered and complex wine that show the superiority of Napa Valley with the elegant hand of restraint.

Guests will be greeted with a welcome cocktail followed by pairings led by the Knob Creek West Coast American Whisky Ambassador.

Why Knob Creek.............? Crafting a bigger, fuller experience: Knob Creek is a bourbon crafted from passion. From patiently aging the whiskey to achieve its signature full flavor to selecting the best barrels in the rickhouse, every detail is carefully considered to ensure the bourbon going into the bottle is as big as and flavorful as Booker Noe meant it to be.

Why Ham.............? Town Hall focuses on commitment to quality, artisanal farmers. We are sourcing the hams from the top farms in Tennessee, Kentucky and North Carolina. They are each aged for upwards of 18 months. Barrel and Fare brings the two worlds together by focusing on similarities in process and craft, we highlight the shared values, flavors and techniques that make Knob Creek and ham pairing a perfect match.

Featured Hams:
Finchville Farms, KY
Johnston County, NC
Benton’s Smokey Mountain, NC

Join us for our Spanish themed summer celebration on the patio and adjoining plaza.

The perfect way to celebrate the end of the foggy summer month of July.......come join us every last Friday of the month at this fun-filled gathering featuring culinary delights from Chef Esteban Escobar and local brew from Simpleton.

Walt and Joan Flowers, who were originally in the nursery business in Pennsylvania,
had long dreamed of combining their love of wine with their passion for agriculture.
Their common love for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir eventually lead them across country
to Northern California’s rugged Sonoma Coast.
Perched on top of soaring coastal ridges that border the Pacific Ocean, Flowers’ estate
vineyards were some of the first planted on the “extreme” Sonoma Coast . Flowers
vineyards rise up just two miles from the rugged Pacific Ocean cliffs at elevations of
1,150 to 1,875 feet.  The maritime breezes and coastal fog cool the vineyards during the
heat of summer allowing fruit to fully mature with fresh, complex flavors and lively
acidity.
Today, Flowers Winery produces Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from its two estate
properties, Camp Meeting Ridge Vineyard and Sea View Ridge Vineyard, as well as
select vineyards in the coolest regions of the Sonoma Coast AVA. These wines are
elegant and refined and serve as a benchmark for Burgundy varietals in California.

Join us for another special Happy Hour edition at Town Hall, featuring selected beers and wine at Happy Hour prices and house-smoked honey-glazed ham served 3 ways with delectable sides dishes.
Another fun event to round out your week. Not to be missed.

EVENT CANCELED

we apologize for any inconvenience, but we had to cancel this event at this time, but may announce a different date in the near future.
