Year End Dinner and Holiday Celebration

Book online now for what will be an extraordinary evening of wine and food, with live music by San Francisco’s prohibition band – Tumbledown House. We have reserved the historic Louis Mel home for this year-ending winemaking dinner, which, if you didn’t know, is now the faithfully restored Murrieta’s Well, pastorally situated among some of Livermore’s oldest and most important vineyard land. It was Louis Mel’s vines that made Livermore famous. And, though he never made wine, his La Bocage Vineyard produced cuttings that today populate our valley and many other vineyards in California.

I can think of no better way to celebrate the harvest and coming holiday season than with our friends and supporters at this historic location.
