Winemaker Dinner \u2013 Santa Barbara Style<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

In 1997, working side by side with his father Ron and brother Brent, Chad helped to establish Melville\u2019s Estate vineyards in the Sta. Rita Hills, a journey that began and continues to endure with tremendous passion and dedication. Since that time, Chad has received great critical acclaim for his wines. Through both his intimate knowledge of the vineyards and his relentless commitment to winemaking practices that honor tradition and the land, Chad understands the magical evolution each bottle of wine undertakes from vine to glass.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Off-the-charts good… these are some of the greatest values in the world of wine today”<\/strong><\/p>\n
