Rutledge & Vine Wine Weekend
November 20-22, 2026
We are excited to welcome fourth-generation winemaker Robert "Rob" Mondavi, Jr., and Lydia Mondavi for a collaboration weekend of special dinners and wine tasting.
Robert Mondavi, Jr, (Rob) is a fourth-generation winemaker and executive with over 27 years of experience crafting and developing iconic wines. 2014 marked the first vintage of Rob and Lydia Mondavi’s Rutledge & Vine wines, quietly released each year and shared with family, friends and connected wine aficionados. James Suckling consistently ranks the wines 96 plus and placed Rutledge & Vine in the top 100. In December of 2024, Robb Report recognized Rob’s affable personality and passion for wine, naming him a “Rockstar winemaker” and ranked his Rutledge & Vine #36 of the best Cabernet Sauvignons of the 21st century. Along with his winemaking for select clients like American icon John Elway and Japanese musical treasure Yoshiki, Rob also oversees the family’s most precious wines.

Join fourth-generation winemaker Rob Mondavi, Jr. for a rare journey through four decades of Mondavi family winemaking. We’ll begin with a selection of Robert Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon from the 1990s, then move through Rutledge & Vine’s 2009, 2018 and 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon to explore how great Napa Cabernet evolves in the bottle, and how the Mondavi style has been shaped, refined and carried forward from one generation to the next. Sign up is required, as space is limited.
Indulge in a special multi-course tasting dinner, thoughtfully crafted through a collaboration between the Twin Farms culinary team and Rutledge & Vine, featuring Russian River Valley Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, and the 2022 Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon alongside a historic 1976 Robert Mondavi Cabernet.
