Yes, you can share a toast and dine with members of the Mondavi family at a special groundbreaking wine dinner Thursday at Morton’s. You’ll feel as if you are in Napa Valley. Multiple generations of the Mondavi family that pioneered the Napa Valley wine industry and the way New World wines are labeled today are hosting this unforgettable wine dinner across the country benefiting the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
The private dining room at Morton’s Anaheim and South Coast Plaza Village restaurants are equipped with state-of-the art, high-definition nine-foot screens and theater-quality surround-sound and will feature a live broadcast from the Carriage House at Charles Krug Winery (the oldest winery continually operating in Napa Valley).
Guests will enjoy wines from Charles Krug Winery, Continuum Estate and Folio Fine Wine Partners, paired with four courses of Morton’s cuisine, including some brand new menu items. Guests will have an opportunity to bid on an exclusive three-pack of wine, featuring premium labels. The dinner will also kick off an online auction of the first red wine produced by the extended Mondavi family – a rare 27-liter bottling of a unique blend of Napa Valley-grown Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Proceeds will benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Ticket for the dinner cost $175 per person, and reservations can be made via Morton’s website or by calling the restaurant.
