The Ultimate Napa Valley Wine and Food Experience for 8 guests, brought to you by Trinchero Napa Valley and Ziata

Since 1948, the Trinchero family has owned and operated Trinchero Family Estates. One of the first families of the Napa Valley, family is at the core of everything they do. Their legacy is as much about family, as it is about wine -- their journey across 7 decades in the valley. It’s a tale of modest beginnings, a pioneering spirit and a steadfast commitment to crafting wine with passion and innovation.

Trinchero Napa Valley honors the UpValley Family Centers -- providing resources and support for so many families in the valley -- with this fun-filled auction lot.

You and seven of your closest friends will enjoy a fun-filled, non-stop day of food and wine. Not just any day, Trinchero Family Estates Wine and Food Center is normally open only to industry professionals. But the Trinchero Family will open its doors for you. 

Vintner Karen Cakebread, creator of Ziata wines, will be your concierge and ringmaster for the day.

Your exclusive day at Trinchero, in St. Helena, will include the following special experiences:

--Ziata wines from Karen Cakebread

--Mastering the Palate!  A private seminar affectionately known as the Tongue Fu Challenge:  the art of winemaking involves a precise balance of important taste components … you’ll learn the meaning of all the cool terms that winemakers use, like … flat, thin, flabby and hot … and then participate in a fun challenge to identify wine tastes;

--A fabulous Wine Country family style lunch expertly prepared by Estate Executive Chef James Houghton, featuring the seasonal best from local farmers;

--a Bocce Party on the Trinchero Family Estates private bocce court with wines from Trinchero and Ziata.
