Join for an intimate honorary dinner celebrating Richard Sanford, one of the founding pioneers of the Sta. Rita Hills and the visionary who planted Santa Barbara County’s first Pinot Noir vines.

Hosted at the spectacular hilltop home of Alma Rosa owners Barb and Bob Zorich, this special evening features a multi-course dinner by Chef Clark Staub of Full of Life Foods paired with exceptional wines from Alma Rosa and Richard Sanford’s cellar.

Together with Richard and Thekla Sanford, fellow winemakers, and longtime friends of the region, guests will celebrate a legacy that helped shape the Sta. Rita Hills into one of the world’s great cool-climate wine regions.
