VIP Experience at Davis Estates Winery

We recently had the privilege to visit Davis Estates winery in Calistoga, California. We enjoyed the VIP Experience, which included a private tour of the property.

 

Vietnamese Shrimp Fritters with 2018 Chardonnay

 

We were greeted at the door with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc by our host, Erin Esser. We enjoyed touring this beautiful state-of-the-art wine facility that was designed by Howard Backen.

 

Moroccan Spiced Lamb Meatballs with 2017 Cabernet

 

After the tour, we enjoyed a private tasting paired with amazing food from Executive Chef, Mark Caldwell. 

 

Pan Seared Musovy Duck Breast with 2016 Zephyr

 

We enjoyed 5 courses, with the last dessert course pairing cheese with the 2016 Phase V Petite Sirah.

 

Seared Prime Beef Striploin with 2016 Phase V Cabernet

 

The VIP Experience was amazing and we suggest you treat yourself the next time you visit wine country.
