We exemplify our deep understanding of the region and those characteristics that define it by the way visitors experience the destination through interaction, learning and doing.
Local And Seasonal Curated Crafted Classes And Workshops
We excel in delivering distinct culinary expressions of place through authentic local experiences, classes, demonstrations and tastings.
Appellation experiences reflect the uniqueness of our destination locales, brought to life inside each of our Maker Spaces by the craftspeople and artisans who call those places home.
We are champions of the communities we call home, dedicating our time and energy to local activities, leadership, philanthropy, and service.
Appellation destinations are centers of locality, where residents and visitors alike come together, spend time, and espouse them as their own.
New Classes For Fall & Winter
Our carefully curated classes cover a wide range of interests and skills, ensuring that there's something for everyone.
Each workshop not only educates, but immerses participants in the local culture and traditions–from blending botanicals for bespoke fragrances to handcrafting holiday wreaths.. Attendees have the unique opportunity to learn directly from renowned experts in their fields – be it winemakers, chefs, bakers, or artisans.
All classes include culinary creations from Appellation co-founder, Chef Charlie Palmer, and wines from some of our very favorite wineries up the road.
