Just Announced – Next Wednesday, June 5 – I am delighted to announce that Mr. Nils Venge himself will be here at Solare to lead a very special Wine Dinner.

Nils is universally regarded as one of the foremost pioneers of the Napa Valley wine industry, garnering the first 100-point wine score ever for an American wine on his 1985 vintage of Groth Reserve Cabernet (Nils helped start Groth as winemaker & GM). 

In 1993, Nils leaves Groth so that he can focus 100% on Saddleback Cellars.   Nils at Saddleback makes incredible rich wines:  Cab Sauvignon’s, Sangiovese, Merlot, Zinfandel, and more.

Hear firsthand from Nils how Napa really took off in the 1970’s and 80’s.   Nils pursued his love of wine at the University of California in Davis where he earned a BS in Viticulture in 1967.  In the Spring of 1970, he started working at Charles Krug Winery and the rest is history.   

The evening with Nils starts with a Reception at 6:15pm followed by a 4-course dinner designed by Executive Chef Filippo Piccini.   We will have 6 wines from Nils over the evening.   The evening is $88 and that includes the 6 wines and the 4-course dinner.   Reserve today via email or call 619-270-9670 asap – Seating Limited.
