Welcome To
Jubilee Wine Country

Wine Country is one of the most beautiful parts of the U.S., and we’re thrilled to be celebrating the people, creativity, artistry, and bounty it represents.

 

Our weekend-long event is taking place amidst the gorgeous backdrop of Solage Napa Valley in Calistoga and features two days of talks, panels, food, drink, connection, and community.

 

On Saturday night, we’ll gather for Wine, Women & Song, a dine-around and wine tasting with the area's leading female winemakers and a performance by Lia Ices. Then on Sunday morning, it’s our Bakers’ Brunch with some of the region’s most talented bakers and pastry chefs.

 

We can’t wait to see you this weekend! Scroll down for the full weekend schedule, talent lineup, and more delightful moments.

Meet Our Keynote Speaker: Dominique Crenn

We’re excited to share that Chef Dominique Crenn is the keynote speaker at Jubilee Wine Country! Dominique is one of the most talented and fascinating folks in the food world. Named to this year’s TIME 100, she’s an environmentalist, philanthropist, cancer survivor, author, and humanitarian. She is also the celebrated chef behind Atelier Crenn, Bar Crenn, and Petit Crenn in San Francisco and the regenerative Bleu Belle Farm in Sonoma County. And you might have noticed, but Dominique is also our cover star on The Paris Issue of Cherry Bombe Magazine!
