Seating is extremely limited.

What Raveneau is to Chablis, Chave is to Hermitage: not merely the best example, but the archetype by which Hermitage typicality is defined.

Ageability is too integral to the Chave style to be considered apart from the wines' essential personality. This dinner presents a rare chance to consider that personality across time, through a spread spanning nearly half a century.

Rouge highlights include the monumental 2009, the superbly elegant 2000, and a quartet from the 1980s that could easily double as a Chave best-of-era shortlist.

Chef Nico Russell's five-course menu, built course-by-course around the wines, will draw on the best of Northern California's late-fall bounty.
