Jordan Wine Country Table - Vol. 14, 2019 - 13

A Chance to Picnic
at Jordan Estate (Finally)
Bastille Day Dinner
Moves to Sunday Brunch
One of the most asked questions by
Jordan visitors is " Do you allow picnics? "
This summer, travelers are finally getting
a chance to experience the latter with the
Picnic Day at Jordan.
This experience, hosted June 15 and
August 9, will be a wine country picnic like
no other. Guests will sip on Champagne
while walking through the winery's newest
hillside vineyard. Jordan's new open-air
butler's pantry will be a focal feature of
the lunch, as guests watch the Jordan
culinary staff add the finishing touches
to picnic chic provisions. Travelers grab
a picnic basket and fill it with an array of
homemade gourmet foods, such as pork
rillettes, salumi, vegetable terrine and
pickled vegetables, as well as citrusmarinated
olives and artisan cheeses.
Several spots on the winery lawn await
guests for this al fresco lunch: in the
shade of the chateau, by a tree or under
the sun. Blankets for lawn seating will
also be provided for the experience.
A bottle of 2017 Jordan Chardonnay is
included with each purchase of two picnic
lunches, and tastes of Jordan Cabernet
Sauvignon will be available at the
terrace bar. Tickets go on sale in May at
jordanwinery.com/events.
What does a French-inspired winery
do when France's Independence
Day falls on a Sunday? For Jordan
Winery, the decision was simple:
turn its annual Bastille Day Dinner
into a Sunday brunch celebration.
Before joining Jordan, husbandwife
team Todd and Nitsa Knoll
both worked at the Ritz-Carlton in
San Francisco, preparing the luxury
hotel's renowned brunch. This new
Healdsburg event in July is one
of the few opportunities in wine
country to indulge in a lavish Sunday
brunch, from the copious glasses of
Jordan Cuvée by Champagne AR
Lenoble and the blinis topped with
Jordan Chef's Reserve Caviar by Tsar
Nicoulai, to the buffet station filled
with smoked salmon, eggs benedict
and other breakfast favorites. Guests
dine al fresco on the winery terrace,
surrounded by the tastes and sounds
of France, as hosts pour 2017 Jordan
Chardonnay, 2015 Jordan Cabernet
Sauvignon and the 2013 Jordan
Cabernet Sauvignon out of magnum.
Tickets go on sale this summer at
jordanwinery.com/events.
Now Seating Private Tables
The redesign of the Jordan dining
room created an opportunity to
reimagine some of the private
tasting experiences for Jordan Estate
Rewards members. Private Tastings
are now offered as Private Tables.
Private Tables give Gold and Platinum
members of Jordan's loyalty program
the opportunity to book their own
private table for one of three wine
tasting experiences, two different
lunches or a formal dinner. Silver
members can enjoy all three private
tastings, each with a different theme.
These experiences are hosted in the
formal dining room or on the winery
terrace, depending on the season.
