We’re teaming up with Banshee Wines on September 17th on the Layla patio for a winemaker dinner that’s anything but ordinary. Delight in an immersive tasting event with six bold wines, six chef-curated stations and Banshee Winemaker Jake Lachowitzer, ready to share the stories (and secrets) behind the bottles. In true Banshee style we’ll be spinning vinyl all night long, so bring your favorite records and set the soundtrack for an evening to remember. Purchase tickets here.
“Rubén Cambero, general manager of the newly revamped MacArthur Place Hotel and Spa in Sonoma, ended up doing the one thing his mother told him not to do: hospitality. ‘My mother always told me, ‘Do anything you want but hospitality,’ due to the major sacrifices my parents had to make,’ says Cambero, who was born in Lograño, Spain, and hails from a long line of chefs and hoteliers. ‘Almost my entire family has had a career in hospitality. My mother is a Michelin-starred chef, and my father has always been the perfect host in his various restaurants, mostly notably at Hotel el Peregrino, a small luxury boutique hotel [member of Relais & Chateaux] that we owned in Navarra, Spain. What can I say? I guess it’s genetic.'”
