I’ve “teamed up” with Napa Valley Wine Academy to present tastings on the first and third Thursdays of each month, starting in August.
Education and enjoyment go hand-in-hand in these tastings. They are geared toward both wine-students and the casual, curious wine drinker. We want you to learn a little and definitely have a good time.
Tastings are $30/person in advance, and $15 for Members of Dan Dawson’s Wine Advisor.
