This is a special limited numbers dinner with the vineyard owner Kashy Khaledi. This special wine dinner represents something of a full circle as the very first wine dinner I ever did was with Kashys family's winery, the Napa icon, Darioush nearly 20 years ago!
We are matching 5 of his stunning wines with five dishes created for this dinner.

Kashy Khaledi started Ashes and Diamonds with a singular view - to emulate the great wines made during Napa’s heyday in the ’60s and 70’s. Gathering some of the most interesting winemakers in the world today (Steve Matthiasson, Dan Petroski and Diana Snowden Seysses)
Kashy’s ode to the ’60s is an acclaimed success. These wines are stunning, complex and subtle – there is frankly nothing else in the world like the Ashes and Diamonds project.
The wines are focused on the old-school style of classic Napa Cabernet Sauvignon producers from the ’60s and ’70s, like Mayacamas, Robert Mondavi, and Inglenook. “The goal will always be for us to make classic, elegant California wines that are representative of site and vintage,” says Khaledi. “In the case of our single vineyard wines, it requires us to be extra meticulous in the vineyard because there’s no benefit to blending from other vineyards to fill in the gaps, and we certainly won’t manipulate the wines in the cellar to compensate for that. There’s a certain beauty to the nuances that occur in wine when you allow for nature to run its course. That’s about as dogmatic as we’ll get.”
