2026 Midsummer Winemaker Dinner

TAPLIN CELLARS
AUGUST 22, 2026
5:30 – 8:30PM
$315 PER PERSON

 

Each year we invite our Signature Circle members to an intimate summer evening in our vineyard, hosted by the Taplin family alongside our winemaker, Julien Fayard. This exclusive, five-course dinner will be crafted by acclaimed Napa Valley chef Eric Magnani and set among the vines at their most beautiful.

Each course will be thoughtfully paired with Taplin Cellars wines – from current releases and tasting-room exclusives to rare library selections. Throughout the evening, Julien will join guests at the table to share insights into his winemaking philosophy and will be available to sign bottles.

This dinner is one of the most anticipated events of our year, and a rare opportunity to experience Taplin at its most personal and elegant.

Seating is extremely limited and available exclusively to Signature Circle members. Tickets will go on sale April 6. A $125 deposit is required at the time of reservation, with the remaining balance due one month prior to the dinner. Cancellations made by July 1 will receive a full refund.

Our team is pleased to assist with nearby accommodations and private driver recommendations to help make your evening seamless. Please contact us via email or text (707-388-8220) for personalized guidance.
