BACKGROUND:
Carlo Mondavi is a name synonymous with California winemaking. His family has a storied history producing some of the best wines to come out of the state, and is keeping the Mondavi name alive with RAEN. Based on the true Sonoma Coast, Mondavi makes some of the most exciting wines from the region- pure, clean expressions of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Focusing on responsible farming, giving back to the earth, and making bench mark wines, Carlo is a breadth of knowledge. We don’t normally see Carlo in our market, and we are super excited to welcome him to the Vintage Conservatory.
DLynn Proctor has been a figure in the wine world for two decades. He is currently the Director for Fantesca Estate and Winery. Fantesca is made by Heidi Barrett- a powerhouse in Napa and around the world. Her Cabernets have garnered cult like status across the globe, and if you’re lucky to get your hands on them you know why. Powerful and elegant expressions of Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay, DLynn Proctor will walk you through the beautiful wines from Heidi.
