Café Medina will help winemaker Domaine Chandon celebrate its 45th anniversary by breaking out the bubbles as the downtown brunch destination welcomes the Napa Valley vintner for an exclusive ‘Sparkling Supper’ dinner on Monday, November 5.
The event, which marks Medina’s new exclusive partnership with the Golden State winery, begins with a stand-up reception at 6:30 p.m. showcasing Medina Bar Manager Marc Slingsby-Jones’ original Last Flight cocktail featuring gin, green Chartreuse, lavender syrup and Chandon California Brut.
