Concannon Vineyard
Please join the Rossmoor Wine and Food Society on Thursday, May 9, 2019, for a visit to Concannon Vineyard in Livermore, CA. Since 1883, Concannon Vineyard has been a trailblazer in California wine. James Concannon immigrated to America over 130 years ago. He was a maverick who challenged the status quo, and was one of the first to craft Bordeaux-style wines in California. Recognizing the striking similarity to the premier terroir of France, he saw the distinct potential of this land and chose the Livermore Valley over Napa to establish Concannon Vineyard.
We will begin our afternoon with a seated wine tasting in the Grape Arbor featuring two white wines, three red wines and a bonus wine, to be selected by the winery closer to the time of our visit. Due to availability, the winery cannot determine which great selection of wines will be served that day.
The wine tasting will be followed by a buffet lunch from Fraiche Catering consisting of:
Honey baked ham, Swiss cheese, and chopped lettuce, both served on focaccia
Grilled vegetable wrap, with feta cheese and pesto aioli
Kale and quinoa salad with edamame, carrots and a carrot vinaigrette
Chocolate brownie bites dipped in chocolate fudge
Meyer lemon meringue tarts
A white wine and a red wine will be served with lunch.
Our bus will depart from Gateway at 10:45 a.m. to arrive at Concannon Vineyard at 11:30 a.m. We will return to Rossmoor at approximately 2:30 p.m. Please make your reservations early and note that all reservations must be received no later than April 25, 2019.
The cost for this experience is $105 for members and $115 for guests.
If you need to cancel your reservation, contact Helen Kane or Louise Ng.
If we can fill your space, we will refund your payment.
