DESCRIPTION:ESB “TRUST” Dinner: Chef Justin Werner\n\nESB is excited to welcome back guest chef\, Chef Justin Werner\, Executive Chef at TRUST in Downtown Santa Ana\, CA\, and winner of Food Network’s “Chopped” for our next ESB Trust dinner! \nOriginally from New York Chef Justin cut his teeth in some of Manhattan’s top tier restaurants. He spent half a decade working at Craft for Tom Colicchio where he gained a passion for quality produce and forging relationships with farmers. This lead him to spend a few years at Thomas Keller’s Per Se before moving on to Corton\, where he maintained two Michelin stars as a Sous Chef for Paul Liebrandt. After winning the hit TV show Chopped\, he used his winnings to invest in himself and left for Copenhagen. It was here that he interned at Noma while it held the title of “Best Restaurant In The World”. Upon returning to the USA\, Justin made a cross country move to Orange County. After serving as chef at Playground DTSA (Jonathan Gold’s Top 101 Restaurants in Los Angeles list)\, he moved on to the executive chef position at Porch and Swing.  Chef Justin is now the Executive Chef of Trust DTSA in Santa Anna. The inspiration for ESB’s Trust dinners\, chef’s restaurant is an 18-seat culinary theater featuring an omakase-style tasting menu with beverage pairings with varying themes and menus based on Chef Justin’s culinary inspirations. \nThe Cuisine….\nThis experience will be a multi-course dinner\, with small plates which are shared (1 plate per two guests) (But singles are always accommodated)!

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.

SUMMARY:Winemaker Evening: Duncan Harmon of Terre et Sang
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening with Duncan Harmon of Terre et Sang\n \nESB is excited to debut one of Santa Barbara County’s most exciting wineries to come online in recent years! The mother and son duo (Dalita and Duncan Harmon) are ready to carry the torch for SB that Paso has been doing so well for the last 10 years\, by showcasing dynamic and powerful fruit from the best vineyards on the central coast. A testament to the great farming in SB county\, Terre et Sang wines couldn’t be more squarely aimed at the Epicurean palate. Duncan is producing fantastic head turning wines that are already grabbing the attention of wine enthusiasts and critics alike!That said\, this mother-son project is compelling as they had never worked in a vineyard or winery before launching their own wines in 2019. \nDespite being newbies\, those initial wines are attention-grabbing examples of ripe strength and textural suavity…the Terre et Sang model aims to replicate the art-driven style and unctuous substance of cult wines such as Sine Qua Non and Saxum\, and the smattering of initial releases are already coveted by those who’ve signed up for their allocation list. But unlike those other brands\, which don’t offer much opportunity for the general public to get a sip\, the Terre et Sang bottlings are now available for all to taste at the Harmons’ sleekly designed tasting room in Los Olivos\, which opened in February 2023 (Matt Kettmann). \nESB is super grateful and excited to share with you a special evening of delicious chef crafted appetizers and Terre et Sang wines! Meet Duncan\, 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\n2021 White No. 1 \n100% Chardonnay \n2020 Kissing Vipers Grenache  \n95% Grenache\, 5% Syrah (Bienacido X-Block) \nJeb Dunnuck 96 pts \n2020 Leave it to the Birds Grenache \n 80% Grenache\, 20% Syrah (St. Rita Hills) \nJeb Dunnuck 94 pts \n2020 Patriarch Syrah \n100% Syrah (Larner Vineyard) \nJeb Dunnuck 94 pts \n2020 Passenger Syrah \n90% Syrah\, 10% Grenache \n Jeb Dunnuck 96 pts \n2020 Shadow Syrah \n100% Syrah (Bienacido) \nPassed Dishes\nDeliciousness \n \nFounded in 2019 with a singular mission to hand-craft wines that are compelling and delicious expressions of site and origin from the great vineyards of Santa Barbara County. Terre et Sang is a family. We are a mother and son leading a small crew of hardworking individuals bound by the simple desire to make what we love\, together. \n“Each vintage we make a small amount of single-vineyard Syrah & Grenache as well as some unique blends from our collection of storied sites. The winemaking is attentive and detail-oriented but never manipulative. We want the fruit to speak for itself”. \nMother and son duo Dalita and Duncan Harmon knew exactly what they wanted to do when they launched Terre et Sang: make top shelf Grenache and Syrah. They aspired to be involved in the farming of their fruit in a big way. The duo had compiled a dream list of many of the best Rhône growing vineyards in Santa Barbara County. They hoped that some of those growers would share their enthusiasm\, and agree to work with them hand in hand. Their hopes were realized. The roster of fruit sources for Terre et Sang boggles the mind: Kimsey\, Peake Ranch\, Larner\, Bien Nacido\, Thompson\, and Stolpman. Wow. We challenge you to find another fledgling winery with that array of partners (The Wine Write). \nNote all non-member ticket purchases are final. \n “Come for the wine\, stay for the winemaker\, leave with a bottle!”

SUMMARY:Midnight in Paris
DESCRIPTION:Midnight in Paris\nIn 1959\, a chef names Paul Gineste de Saurs created the menu in a brasserie called ‘Le Relais de Venise-Son Entrecôte’ in Paris.

SUMMARY:Winemaker Evening: Larry Schaffer of Tercero
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening with Larry Schaffer of Tercero Wines\nJoin us for our final winemaker evening of the year with Larry Schaffer of Tercero Wines! Kick off the Chrismahanukwanzakah season with an evening of fine wines\, delicious passed appetizers\, and great company! \nTercero Wines focusses around a wide range of Rhone varietals\, while flirting with Pinot Noir\, Gewürztraminer\, Cabernet Franc across an impressive list of over 10 different bottles including ! Although our Winemaker Evenings typically feature 4-5 wines; at this event we’ll be featuring 7 bottles from Tercero’s current line-up\, along with additional paired bites to suit! An evening fitting for the holidays\, not to mention Tercero wines are a great value which all of us Epicureans are searching for! \nLarry did not start out in the wine industry\, (like many of the great winemakers in our region); but after taking classes at community colleges with kids who literally could have been his kids\, he received his MS in Viticulture and Enology from UC Davis\, and then moved to the Santa Barbara County wine region in 2005. Starting on the winemaking team at Fess Parker Winery\, he eventually branched off to start and run Tercero wines. Larry is adept not only at winemaking but at explaining the process in a very user-friendly manner. His inclusive and lighthearted approach to tasting wines makes for an entertaining\, fun\, and eye-opening experience! \nFeatured Wines\n2022 Trilogia\n2017 Verbiage Blanc\n2022 Carbonic Mourvedre\n2021 Counoise\n2021 Cabernet Franc\n2021 Pinot Noir\n2015 Grenache\nPassed Dishes\nSpanish Marinated Shrimp w/Herbs & EVOO in Rice Crackers\nCitrus\, Olive + Feta Skewers w/Chimichurri\nBurrata + Pesto Angolotti\nButternut squash + chorizo tacos\, with black bean puree\, cotija & cilantro\nBeef Sliders w/Muenster & Bacon Jam\n\nTercero Wines concentrates on small lot\, hand crafted wines using grapes exclusively from leading Santa Barbara County vineyards and works with grapes from nearly every AVA within the county. Though his main concentration is working with rhone varieties\, Larry remains curious and therefore also works with pinot noir\, gewürztraminer\, cabernet franc\, and a few other fun and interesting grapes. And therein lies the beauty of Santa Barbara County. \n“Come for the wine\, stay for the winemaker\, leave with a bottle!”\nThe Winemaker evening takes place in a very special and unique Santa Barbara home with a view like no other. This modern home\, with its large arched glass walls\, features an unusual panoramic northern view looking across the bay; from Ventura in the east\, along the mountains past the 154 San Marcos pass\, to Gaviota in the west. Truly a sight!
