“I am very excited to be hosting a guided tasting with small groups in an intimate setting at our Arts District Outpost in DTLA. I will be showcasing wines produced from our estate vineyard in the Sta Rita Hills, planted in 2012 in the northwest corner of the appellation in Santa Barbara County. Guests will be able to taste through at least 6 different wines, starting with some older vintage Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from 2016, the first year of full production from our vineyard. We will also be tasting some exciting barrel samples from the most recent 2023 vintage. These will be from newer plantings of Chenin Blanc, Syrah and Dornfelder, all planted on the property in more recent years.” - Aaron Walker, Director of Winemaking Operations for Pali Wine Co.
