Item Description
Adastra Wines has created an auction item befitting the translation of our Latin-derived name: ad astra is "to the stars" in English. Some star-filled mutually agreed night, join us to observe astronomical phenomena and taste celestial wines from our CCOF certified vineyards. The docent led viewing will be at your choice of either the Robert Ferguson Observatory with its 24" reflector in Sugarloaf State Park in Sonoma County or on the softball field at Adastra Vineyards with powerful portable telescopes. Adastra's owners will be on hand to point out favorite starry sights and pour latest wine releases from our Carneros earth, paired with toothsome late night treats.
The lot includes:
- Docent led stargazing at Ferguson Observatory or Adastra softball field with power telescopes;
- If at the Observatory, a group campsite is included so bringing a tent to stay the night is an option, if at Adastra...we can discuss our camping options;
- Wine tasting and food pairing following viewing featuring current releases and a bit of library;
- A 3 bottle sample of current Adastra Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Merlot releases for each member of our party;
- Depending on celestial alignments, winemaker Pam Starr (that's right) may come into view (her track across the sky rivals Cepheid variables).
Item Special Note
Maximum number for group is 10 people, 21 or older.
