Vintage Affaire 7/19

Northern California is home to fabulous food and wine, and this year's Vintage Affaire showcases some of the region's brightest chefs and wineries. The 26th annual wine auction will benefit Palo Alto's Vista Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired. Held at a private estate, this year's extravaganza will feature a great silent auction, raffle (Tiffany & Co. prizes!), dinner, and a live auction hosted by famed wine auctioneer Fritz Hatton.

The silent auction will feature six local chefs (including a two-star Michelin chef) offering appetizers from their repertoire. They will be matched with a venerable list of pouring vintners. Talk about decadence to the 10th power!

Featured Guest Chefs:

Christopher Kostow at Meadowood, Napa Valley
Cal Stamenov, Marinus at Bernardus Lodge in Carmel Valley
Xavier Salomon, Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay
Alessandro Cartumini, Quattro at the Four Seasons Hotel Silicon Valley
Daniel Patino, Michael Mina's Arcadia, San Jose
