SUMMARY:Winemaker Evening: Andy Neja of Cairjn Wines
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening with Andy Neja of Cairjn Wines\nESB Welcomes winemaker Andy Neja of Cairjn Wines for our final Winemaker Event of the year! \nCairjn\, pronounced like “karn”\, is derived from the word\, “cairn” which means “a heap of stones piled up as a memorial or as a landmark.” The founder\, Andy Neja\, chose this name as a tribute to his family’s farming legacy and as a nod to the limestone-rich terrain of West Paso\, where their vineyards are located. \n\nCairjn is one of the newest wineries in Paso Robles\, and Andy’s new tasting room\, conveniently located just off Highway 46E\, opened its doors in August 2023. Andy is no newcomer to winemaking\, having been a key figure at Caliza since 2015. Now launching his own brand\, Cairjn Wine Cellars\, he brings years of experience and expertise to his latest venture. Now producing 850 cases annually\, Andy’s portfolio of wines reflects their commitment to quality and sustainability. \nESB is happy to debut Cairjn with you for a special evening of delicious chef crafted appetizers and Cairjn wines! Meet Andy\, taste his fabulous wines and learn about his journey into winemaking. Come for the wine\, stay for the winemaker\, leave with a bottle\, two\, or a case! \nFeatured Wines\n2023 Albariño – $42\n2021 Grenache – $75\n2021 Lopai Grenache – $85\n2021 Syrah – $75\n2021 Blend No.2 – $75 \nPassed Dishes\nDeliciousness coming soon! \n \nAfter volunteering a few days a week for eight months at Caliza Winery in Paso Robles\, the Andy Neja and his wife decided to move to the area to work with Carl at Caliza full-time. During that time Andy’s passion for wine and viticulture has not abated. The natural next step was taken in 2020 (8 harvests later) with the launching of his own project\, Cairjn Wine Cellars. \n \n “Come for the wine\, stay for the winemaker\, leave with a bottle!”

SUMMARY:ESB "TRUST" Dinner: Chef Marco Longinotti of SY Kitchen & Nella
DESCRIPTION:ESB “TRUST” Dinner: Chef Marco Longinotti\n\nEpicurean Santa Barbara welcomes Chef Marco Longinotti of SY Kitchen and Nella Kitchen and Wine Bar to the TRUST Kitchen! \n \nFor this dinner\, Chef Marco Longenetti\, partner and chef de cuisine from Nella kitchen and bar and SY kitchen will be joining us for the dinner! \nChef Marco Longinotti has been cooking since he was a child\, first in the kitchen with his grandmother. Chef Longinotti is a self-taught chef who\, given the freedom to do things his own way\, learned the beauty in making mistakes\, understanding the process and challenging himself to do better. Chef Longinotti’s now-professional career started as a hobby\, cooking for friends when he had free time from his office job\, which led to entertaining friends of friends\, and so on\, until he realized that life is about what you make it — and so he did. Chef Longinotti decided to leave everything behind in his home nation of Italy\, and start fresh in California\, trying to prove to himself that he was right to follow his new path. \nAfter four years as a cook at S.Y. Kitchen in Santa Ynez\, in 2020 he was offered the chance to hop on board at the new project that was Nella Kitchen & Bar\, in Los Olivos\, where he took the position of Chef de Cuisine and is in charge of the pinsa program. \nThe Cuisine….\nChef Marco’s cuisine showcases the best of Santa Barbara’s local bounty\, seamlessly blended with the timeless flavors of Italy. His dishes are simple yet refined\, thoughtfully prepared with a balance of tradition and innovation. From wood-fired pinzas to handmade pastas\, fresh seasonal salads to perfectly grilled vegetables and meats\, each plate reflects the vibrant essence of California and the chef’s roots in the heart of Italy. \n \nWhat is a “Trust” Dinner?\nA trust dinner is an upscale multi-course meal (5+ Courses)\, where guests put their trust into the Chef\, who will be preparing a one of a kind dinner revealed upon arrival! Why no menu in advance? Because: #1.) we like to surprise our guests\, and #2.) we want to remove any pre-conceived notions regarding what the dishes will taste like\, or look like. This is part of the experience\, and part of the fun. \nWhat we can tell you is that the food will be fantastic. We are featuring only chefs who have inspired us\, who have shown great passion and remarkable skill and pedigree; chefs who have a distinctive culinary voice. Their biographies and the event description will provide sufficient details about the dinner; (for example: Mediterranean\, Modern\, or Vegetable-driven). The team at Epicurean Santa Barbara will know the menu in advance\, so we can notify the chef of dietary restrictions\, and answer any questions regarding the dinner. \nThe Trust dinner is BYOB. You heard us right! In the event reminder\, we will offer wine pairing suggestions for the dinner\, and you are welcome to bring whatever bottles (or spirits) you see fit! \nAs these are specialized menus\, modifications are politely declined\, but please include any serious food allergies in your registration notes. Non-member Registrations are Non-refundable.
