Saddle up for Cattle, Cabernet & Country, an unforgettable Friday night in Livermore Valley wine country celebrating bold reds, local ranching, and a little country charm. This upscale Western evening brings together some of the region’s standout Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc producers, ranch-inspired bites featuring locally sourced beef, live country music by Ruff Stock Band, and your finest country western or Nashville-inspired attire.
Guests will sip their way through wines from eight Livermore Valley wineries, enjoy elevated beef bites created in partnership with local ranchers, meet the families behind the ranching operations, and dance under the stars to live music from Ruff Stock. It’s an evening farmers market meets Cabernet country party — a celebration of local wine, local beef, and the agricultural roots that make Livermore Valley so special.
