Kick off our 27th annual Bern’s Winefest at the Epicurean Hotel with our signature wine blending seminar in the theater, followed by a wine country picnic on the terrace. Featuring wines from Heitz Cellar with special guest speaker and Winemaker, Brittany Sherwood, this festival marks the beginning of everything fabulous about this week. Our expert panel of Bern’s Steak House sommeliers will guide you through blending next year’s special bottling release, while you learn about the nuances of the art of winemaking. After the seminar, join us on the terrace for a delicious wine country picnic prepared by Chef Jonathan Atanacio and his team of culinary artisans from Élevage SOHO Kitchen & Bar.
Each ticket includes a complimentary bottle of this special-blend collaboration bottle of Lot-C91 Cabernet to enjoy with friends and family. Bottles will be released on a future date and available for pick up at Bern’s Fine Wines & Spirits.
