After growing up on his parents' vineyard in the Santa Cruz Mountains, Winemaker Ryan Alfaro developed a passion for wine. He spent his whole life surrounded by his family’s business, then worked under winemaker Adam Tolmach, to then become the head winemaker for Alfaro Family Vineyards. There’s no place like home.

While honing his skills at Alfaro Family Vineyards, Ryan decided to create his own label, Farm Cottage Wines. The 2019 vintage is the first of Farm Cottage Wines and they continue to grow.

We are so excited to have Ryan visit the bar to take over our By-the-Glass menu and share his wines with you.

No ticket needed! Just come on in and grab a glass, a bite to eat and chat with Ryan!

We couldn’t be more excited to have Michael Cruse at Dunsmoor on Tuesday, July 23rd. We’ll be diving into 13 (!!!) of his fantastic sparkling and still Cruse Wine Co. wines (maybe some other surprises) alongside a stellar five-course menu created by Brian for the occasion. 

Michael is making some of the most compelling, delicious and uniquely Californian wine, specifically through the lens of sparkling wine. With a focused passion in sparkling wines, Michael founded Ultramarine in 2008. In 2013 he founded Cruse Wine Company, with the goal of making fruit-driven wines that are fresh yet still serious. Focusing on sights in Napa, Sonoma, Mendocino and Contra Counties Michael cares less about making another Pinot Noir or Cabernet. Instead, he’s making single vineyard/single varietal wines using lesser known varieties such as Valdeguié, Saint Laurent and Carignan. 

We’ll be kicking off the night with some bubbles in the bar!

Reserve your spot at OpenTable - limited seating available!

Come join us as importer Jenny & Francois Selections takes over the bar!

Meet the winemakers of Vinca Minor, Swick Wines and Christian Tschida. We will be pouring selections of their delicious wines!

No ticket needed. Just come on in and enjoy a lovely Monday evening.

See you there!
