Yolo Food & Wine Affair at Great Bear Vineyards
Saturday, October 24 | 5:30pm-8pm

Join us for an unforgettable evening celebrating the very best of Yolo County’s wine and culinary scene, all in the breathtaking setting of our vineyards!

This elegant affair will feature eleven top Yolo County wineries, each pouring their finest 90+ point, Best of Class, Double Gold, and limited-production wines. Pair each sip with delicious bites from local chefs as you stroll the vineyard grounds and take in the golden hour glow.

Your ticket is your passport to the entire evening. Wander at leisure among more than twenty award-winning wines, returning to your favorites as often as you please, and savor an abundance of seasonal creations from more than a dozen of the region’s most gifted chefs. Among the delights awaiting you: house-made raviolo filled with Full Belly Farm kabocha squash and mascarpone, finished with a drizzle of 2026 harvest olio nuovo; fire-roasted acorn squash with a jewel-bright pomegranate gastrique and toasted seeds; shrimp scampi alongside a golden saffron risotto; and, for a sweet finale, chocolate baguette slices crowned with cinnamon cream and decadent chocolate truffles. All of it is included, and none of it is rationed. Simply come hungry, linger long, and let the vineyard do the rest.

What to Expect:

🍷 20+ award-winning wines from 11 local wineries, all included
🍽️ Unlimited gourmet bites and desserts from 12+ celebrated local chefs
