Jessup Cellars “Dress to the Vines” Weekend Celebrates the Who, How & When of Fashion in Wine Country
Author:Lindsey ShookA weekend of wine tasting, fashion, and food is on the agenda at Jessup Cellars, a Napa Valley winery that prides itself in small, handcrafted production winesa and unique tasting experiences.
Jessup Cellars’ Dress to the Vines August edition of its TasteMaker Speaker Series features four amazing days in Wine Country. The drinking and diva-ing begins Thursday, August 15 and wraps up Sunday, August 18. We took the liberty of creating your whole weekend itinerary, so pack your bags and prepared yourself for an inspiring and rejuvenating wine-filled weekend.
Thursday, August 15: Kick off the festivities with a panel discussion called Defining Wine Country Fashion: The Who, How, When, which will be led by Masters of Wine Fashion enthusiasts. These vino mavens will advise on how to dress for a day of wine tasting and answer your most burning question: “What does Wine Country Casual mean?”
Fabulous fashionistas model the most smashing wine couture.
Friday, August 16: A month-long art exhibit titled Revealing the Scents & Sights of Fashion, through Wine will feature a meet-and-greet with visual artist Cynthia Carey and wearable art designer Rory Castillo. Indulge in wine and fragrance pairings from Jessup Cellars and Sonoma Scent Studio with Huffington Post’s Wine Fashionista, Mary Orlin (among other talented panelists) who will share a new more sensory way to experience wine.
Saturday, August 17: Get your fancy on at the Dress to the Vines Fashionista Dinner & After Party. The evening starts out with a delicious dinner at Bouchon Bistro. If you wish to taste all of the flavors of Wine Country, take note: guests who purchase a bottle of wine at dinner will receive complimentary passes to the Jessup Cellars after party, courtesy of additional restaurants throughout Yountville. The evening continues as guests mix and mingle with the weekend’s artists and designers, taste Jessup wines, and groove to a live DJ while showcasing their festive wine couture. To top it all off, attendees will enjoy delicate desserts from Bouchon – you can’t get more delicious than that!
