- **Event Name**: Wine Down Wine Dinner with Idle Cellars??
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 27 Apr, 2026 at 05:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Calling all red wine lovers ?

We just added something special to close out Winefest Weekend and if you love red wine, this one's for you.

Join us for an intimate, 6-course wine dinner with Winemaker Ben Larks, part-owner of Idle Cellars, a boutique micro-winery from Sonoma County, California dedicated to crafting organic, small-batch wines that capture the true character of the land they come from.

This evening is a deep dive into the beautiful diversity of red wine varietals — 5 different red grapes (and 1 white), each paired with a course from Chef Doug Stewart's specially designed menu.

Chef Doug is a three-time Best Chef award winner as voted by readers of What's Up Eastern Shore Magazine, and the menu he's built for this night is nothing short of extraordinary.
