Shafer’s property has been the site of grape growing and commercial winemaking since 1880, during Napa Valley’s first boom as an American wine country. Today, current winemaker Elias Fernandez is celebrating 40 harvests on this property. Shafer Vineyards, a pioneer of Napa Valley, is known as one of its most celebrated historic wineries. As the current stewards of this land, they take inspiration from nearly 150 years of their passionate and gifted predecessors, who saw the rich promise of this site, cared for it meticulously, and preserved its beauty and power for future generations.

Au Bon Climat Library Dinner with Isabelle Clendenen

Tasting

Join K&L and Isabelle Clendenen, daughter of the late Santa Barbara County pioneer Jim Clendenden, for an incredible dinner at celebrated French bistro Petit Trois, featuring library wines from Au Bon Climat. Isabelle’s father, Jim, established Au Bon Climat in 1982. Since the beginning, ABC has been devoted to making timeless, Burgundian-influenced Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in Santa Barbara County. The convergence of cool, brisk Pacific air, marine-based soils, and east-west running valleys of the area provided an ideal place for growing exceptional grapes. Hence the name, “Au Bon Climat,” the French idiom for “good place”.

Originally from Burgundy, Chef Ludo Lefebvre is one of the most influential chefs in Los Angeles, and has helped to revolutionize the city’s dining culture. At Petit Trois, a 2015 James Beard finalist for Best New Restaurant, he brings his classical training & signature flair to French food, sourcing the best ingredients, and making simple classics exciting & new.

The Clendenen family has been generous enough to release library wines from their own collection, providing us the opportunity to collaborate on this rare opportunity to dive into California history.
