The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara, Hosts Wine Pairing Dinner with Dierberg Vineyard and Star Lane Vineyard on May 25, 2023

Come and enjoy an intimate gathering featuring the superb Dierberg Vineyard and Star Lane Vineyard wines paired with culinary delights from new Executive Chef Susanto Bhattacharya

The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara–the premier oceanfront resort along the Gaviota Coast–welcomes Dierberg Vineyard and Star Lane Vineyard for the monthly wine pairing dinner series in a very special dinner celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Dierberg Family Estate. The special evening will be in the intimate and private Angel Oak Wine Cellar below Angel Oak–The Ritz-Carlton Bacara’s fine dining restaurant. The carefully curated four-course pairing menu will bring forth the tasting notes of special Dierberg Vineyard and Star Lane Vineyard wines selected by the family from the family’s cellars. The pairing menu will be created in collaboration with Chef de Cuisine of Angel Oak, Josh Kellim and will include the first vintage of Tyler Thomas, who celebrates his tenth anniversary as winemaker at the estate. It will be an evening to remember as guests enjoy a reception on the outdoor terrace, taking in the sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean before heading to the intimate cellar for dinner.

The evening’s menu is a perfectly paired culinary and wine experience; the flavor presented is carefully chosen to bring forth the tasting notes of each Dierberg Vineyard and Star Lane Vineyard wine poured. The first course features Morro Bay oysters and a rhubarb mignonette finished with nasturtium oil paired with the 2020 Dierberg Vineyard Chardonnay, Sta. Rita Hills. It also features The Ritz-Carlton Reserve Caviar, crispy potato topped with onion crème fraîche deliciously paired with the 2020 Dierberg Vineyard Estate Pinot Noir, Sta. Rita Hills. The second course spotlights local halibut served with braised artichoke and delta asparagus, prepared with Star Lane beurre blanc and saffron oil and is paired with 2019 Dierberg Drum Canyon Vineyard Chardonnay, Sta. Rita Hills. The menu continues with Colorado Lamb Chop topped with date spiced lamb jus on a delectable plate including spring vegetables couscous, lemon yogurt, and fresh hummus. This course is paired with the 2020 Star Lane Vineyard ‘Faron’ White Blend, Happy Canyon of Santa Barbara. Guests will then move to the fourth course featuring Tête De Moine cheese flavored with local honey and peppercorn and perfectly paired with the 2013 Star Lane Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, Happy Canyon of Santa Barbara. The culinary experience will end with a delectable, hand crafted dessert by Pastry Chef Christine Rosell. Guests will enjoy this spectacular dining experience in the private wine cellar room below Angel Oak–The Ritz-Carlton Bacara’s fine dining restaurant.

Celebrating its 25th anniversary, the Star Lane Estate is best known for its world-class Cabernet Sauvignon, produced under the direction of second-generation owners and siblings Michael Dierberg and Ellen Dierberg Milne. Owner and Montecito resident Ellen Dierberg Milne will attend the dinner along with winemaker Tyler Thomas, who will celebrate his tenth harvest this year. Wines from the family’s Pinot Noir and Chardonnay Vineyard at Drum Canyon in the Sta. Rita Hills will also be featured as Thomas guides guests through the history of this famed Santa Barbara estate and his own history which included an apprenticeship with Aubert de Villaine of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti fame.

The Angel Oak x Dierberg Star Lane Vineyards Dinner starts at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, May 25th. Seats are $225 per person, excluding tax and gratuity charges. Reservations can be made online via Experiences at The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara Events (sevenrooms.com).
