Please join Chef Erin Sealy at her North County location, La Costa Wine Company in Carlsbad, for an evening with Santa Barbara's Carr Winery and Winemaker Ryan Carr. We'll be pouring 5 wines, each a different expression of the Santa Barbara wine region. Ryan will take us through each exceptional wine with the intimate knowledge as vineyard manager and winemaker of each selection. Chef Erin Sealy will be preparing a menu highlighting each wine! You won't want to miss this very special evening with a very knowledgeable and entertaining winemaker. Expect a wonderful evening of wine, food and Insights from Ryan and Chef Erin. Seating for this event is limited, please register asap, using the link below!

Each selection will be paired with its own wine inspired dinner course, prepared by Chef Erin Sealy. Chef Erin specializes in pairing food with wine, with a slightly different approach than most. Prior to creating a menu, each wine is tasted and reviewed and then she creates a food pairing, highlighting the nuances of each wine. This concept creates a dinner and pairing experience with layers of complexity and unique creations which exemplify the enjoyment of each wine. With a passion for food and wine, Chef Erin delights attendees with a detailed account of the pairing concept and cooking techniques that create each course. Expect a fabulous evening of wine, food & educational insights! Please see below for additional dinner details and a registration link.
