The history of Kistler Vineyards dates back to 1978 when the Kistler family founded the winery in Sonoma County. Their first vintage, 1979, was a mere 3,500 cases. Wine production has grown to 25,000 cases & they now receive regular accolades from many notable wine critics.

In 2013, winemaker Steve Kistler founded Occidental Wines with the goal of producing world-class PNO from the Freestone-Occidental AVA in Sonoma. Wine critics, with their scores, say Steve is hitting home runs! Many of these wines are only available to their wine list subscribers, so this is a rare opportunity to enjoy & stock up on these highly sought after wines at very attractive prices.

Owner/chef Avinash Kapoor has created a wonderful menu to pair with five of Steve’s wines. Join Gourmet Wine Getaways’ wine expert Peter Kerr as we explore these wines & food pairings.

Limited to 22 guests so reserve early!
