The Vintner’s Table presents a vineyard & pasture wine dinner #2 at Spofford Station Foothills Vineyard.

September kicks off harvest in the valley, so we will be in the vineyard and the pasture for a wine dinner that celebrates the bounty of Spofford Station.

Your evening starts with a farm wagon ride into the vineyard for a tasting of JLC Winery wines. Winemaker and wine grape grower Lynne Chamberlain will explain what she looks for in each varietal and what she does in the vineyard to help make the best expression of the grape.

Dinner in the pasture features Cabernet Cow grass-fed, organic beef and garden-fresh fruits & vegetables.
