Lompoc, CA (April 18, 2019) – Flying Goat Cellars is hosting a “Decade of Decadence” Winemaker Dinner with Winemaker Norm Yost and Restaurateur Mitchell Sjerven on Friday, May 3, at La Purisima Mission. This is the tenth year that the duo team up to bring an intimate dining experience in the romantic, rustic setting of the historic Franciscan mission located near the prestigious Sta. Rita Hills AVA in Lompoc.
Featured Chef Greg Murphy enjoys finding the essence of his cooking style in local and sustainable ingredients. “As always, looking forward to my favorite offsite event of the year,” says Chef Greg.
