Whiskey, Wine, Cattle, and Dine

Hold onto your hats, folks, because this dinner is about to blow you clean away. Five lucky couples will need to clear their calendars for Friday, March 10, 2023 for the wine dinner/experience of the year featuring Kistler Vineyards, Bryant Estate, and Pappy Van Winkle. Alright, we’ll stop hyping it up and just tell you already!

Lot Details

Gary Rzucidlo has somehow put together a lineup of food, wine, bourbon, and special guests that’s seemingly impossible.

Kistler Vineyards, Bryant Estate, and Pappy Van Winkle. The trifecta of salivating splendor, all in one place. That “place” happens to be the brand-new Halls Chophouse, a celebrated South Carolina eatery with a new Nashville restaurant that is off the charts. They are VERY good at meats and exceptional at hospitality.

Not only will there be side by side vertical comparisons of Kistler Chardonnay and Pinot, as well as Bryant Estate and Pappy, but representatives from each producer will be in attendance to lead the group through the tasting! Bettina Bryant (a Nashville native), president and proprietor, and Tony McClung, Estate Director, will represent Bryant Estate; Karin Ott, Director of Marketing, will represent Kistler, and Julian Van Winkle and his wife Sissy will represent Pappy.  Hall’s Chophouse Chef Chris Von Egger will create perfect pairings for your wines, with the perfect hospitality and atmosphere provided by General Manager, Chad Ellis

After what is sure to be a dream dinner, you’ll meet up the next day for brunch at Josephine with Bettina and then enjoy a private tour of the Frist Art Museum! Bettina is an independent art curator and collector and will share her incredible wisdom with the group!

If that isn’t enough to entice you, here’s the real kicker. You’ll walk away with souvenir bottles from Bryant, Kistler, and, yes, Pappy to take home with you.

Paddles up for hands down the greatest bourbon, wine, steak, and dine evening (plus brunch) of 2023!
