Reserve Here

Join us for a special afternoon celebrating the flavors of Thanksgiving through a thoughtfully curated wine and culinary tasting experience at Christopher Cellars.

We've partnered with Chef Brett Bohlmann of Boulevard Bistro to reimagine three familiar Thanksgiving favorites into beautifully presented culinary bites, each thoughtfully paired with a Christopher Cellars wine.

Presented one course at a time, each pairing invites guests to explore how seasonal ingredients, creative culinary techniques, and carefully selected wines complement one another.

Chef Brett will personally plate and introduce each creation, sharing the inspiration and techniques behind the dish. Christopher Mora, owner and winemaker of Christopher Cellars, will guide guests through the accompanying wines, highlighting the vineyards, grape varieties, and characteristics that make each pairing unique.
