On August 4 the music will be from The Second Street Band. The Second Street Band brings together four guys with over 40 years of experience rocking all over the Bay Area. They play blues, classic rock and lots of other groovy genres.
On September 8 it’s Dustin Saylor. Having been compared to the likes of Thomas Rhett, Keith Urban, John Mayer and Needtobreathe, it’s no wonder Dustin Saylor has opened for hugely popular bands like Daughtry and Plain White T’s. A homegrown Northern California boy, his songwriting and country vibes are a perfect fit for a summer night on the Notre Vue terrace.

Notre Vue Estate encompasses 710 acres of land in both the Chalk Hill and Russian River Valley appellations. The Estate was founded by Bob and Renee Stein in 1992. Approximately 350 acres are dedicated to open space and classified as “Forever Wild” under an agreement with the Sonoma County Open Space District. The vineyards are planted to 16 varietals. Wine club members can enjoy hikes on trails that wind through the 250 acres of vineyard and 350 acres of open space. Abundant wildflowers, red-tailed hawks, turkeys, hummingbirds and a Golden Eagle or two live on the property. At the highest point on the property there are sweeping views to the east to the mountains above St. Helena and to the west as far as the Pacific Ocean.
