ELEVATED LIBRARY WINE TASTING WITH CAVIAR & CHEESE

Join us for a multi-vintage library tasting of our J. Davies Cabernet Sauvignon, which we have been producing from our historical Diamond Mountain estate since 2001. For the first time, we are releasing library selections of our extraordinary estate Cabernet Sauvignon. This elevated tasting experience provides real wine aficionadas the opportunity to taste select library vintages, which have been stored under the most ideal conditions, to personally explore the graceful evolution of our Diamond Mountain Cabernet. Following the tasting, guests will have direct access to purchase any of the wines tasted, allowing you the rare opportunity to expand your personal wine cellar with wines that have been bottle-aged anywhere from five to 15 years.

Your tasting starts with a welcome glass of Schramsberg sparkling wine paired with an amuse bouche of Regiis Ova Caviar. Once seated, you will taste five curated library selections, along with the current release of our estate Cabernet Sauvignon. During the tasting we will discuss each vintage’s impact on the vineyard and grapes, and the evolution of these wines. Your tasting will be accompanied by a perfectly paired selection of cheeses, enhancing your time with us and making this tasting one that will be remembered for years to come.

This is a seated group tasting that is offered at 11 a.m. on Saturdays. Please allow 90 to 120 minutes for this experience.

The cost is $275 per person ($225 per person for Schramsberg and Davies Vineyards club members), which is charged at the time of booking. This experience is available to be booked as a buyout, and can be scheduled at other days/times, for $2,200 ($1,800 for club members), with a maximum of 10 people allowed.
