Tuesday December 31, 2019 celebrate the last night of 2019 in style. Ring in 2020 like we did 100 years ago. Dance the night away to live music and enjoy classic barrel room games. A 1920s theme will liven the evening and as we celebrate the “Roaring 20s” and reminisce the jazz bands, bootleggers and flappers.
Desert Wind Winery will host a glamorous evening, welcoming guests into the winery amid blazing fireplaces and glowing luminaries. Guests will begin with an aperitif and appetizers before being seated in the elegantly decorated dining room amid sparkling Riedel stemware. A formal five course dinner, magically paired with Desert Wind wines, will delight diners.
Then as midnight grows near, party goers will enjoy a late night fondue buffet and ring in the New Year with individual sparklers.
Luxury, on site accommodations are available but extremely limited so reserve your room now.
