SANTA BARBARA — The 20th Anniversary of World of Pinot Noir takes place at the Ritz-Carlton Bacara in Santa Barbara through Saturday, March 7, 2020. The annual event gathers the planet’s foremost Pinot Noir wineries and winemakers, renowned chefs, sommeliers and leading wine scholars in a weekend-long seaside celebration of this delicious and storied wine.

DISCOVER. INDULGE. CELEBRATE.

Join Dick and Jenny at the Founders Dinner on March 6th at 7pm!

Two decades ago a small, dedicated group of winemakers banded together to bring together the world’s foremost Pinot Noir producers to celebrate the delicious grape in a gorgeous setting. To mark this milestone, we invite you join a handful of these visionaries as they pour their own wines and fete the founding of the World of Pinot Noir. The founders in attendance include, Brian Talley of Talley Vineyards, Dick and Jenny Doré of Foxen, Anne Moses and James Hall of Patz & Hall, David Adelsheim of Adelsheim Vineyard, and Stephen and Paula Dooley of Stephen Ross Wine Cellars. The wine will flow and the stories will unfold as guests enjoy a five-course menu prepared by Ritz-Carlton Bacara’s Executive Chef Umit Kaygusuz.
