We are thrilled to host winemaker Sam Pride of Pride Mountain Vineyards as we taste through 5 of their exquisite Californian wines. Sam will help you discover the artistry behind winemaking while you enjoy a 4-course dinner designed to enhance the flavors and aromas of each wine.
Sam Pride is the third generation of Prides in the wine world. Born in Brittany, France to Steve Pride and his Parisian mother, Laurence, Sam moved to California at six years old when his father took over as CEO of Pride Mountain Vineyards. The ranch was a magical place at which to grow up. One of his earliest memories is taking soil samples with his science-minded geophysicist father so that they might better understand the land they were entrusted to farm. The pandemic returned Sam to the winery full-time where, at 21 years old, he joined the winemaking team. Seeing the property and business through more mature eyes, he came to realize what a fragile ecosystem winegrowing is, and his respect for the business grew tenfold. While Sam recently moved to San Francisco to finish his BA, he keeps one foot on the mountain so that he may continue to be connected to the wonder that is Pride Mountain Vineyards.
Raise your glass and toast to an extraordinary wine-tasting experience!
