Get your February started on the right foot with a winemaker dinner featuring Patrick Cappielo of Monte Rio Cellars!

Cappiello got his start in restaurants, his wine career began in 2002 as a Sommelier at Tribeca Grill. As time progressed his roles changed to Wine Director and restaurant owner over the next 15 years. Through connections with countless winemakers and after meeting his current business partner Pax Mahle, the transition to Winemaker was a natural progression for Cappiello.

His winemaking career started in 2018, under the watchful eye of Pax Mahle. Monte Rio focuses on heritage and classic California varieties. Wines are made naturally with no additives and farmed with organic practices.

We will start with a meet and greet with hors d’oeuvres followed by your choice of a burger or smoked/roasted chicken, each served with papas and a petit salad and dessert.

The Lineup for the evening will be as follows:

Skull Wines Sparkling

Monte Rio Sauvignon Blanc

Monte Rio “Rivers Edge” Sangiovese

Monte Rio Old Vine Zinfandel

Monte Rio “Teresi” Petit Syrah

Can’t wait to share a great night together!
