The Cellarius Kitchen, a beautiful and exciting new addition to Stag's Leap Wine Cellars, has just been completed. Lending inspiration to the name and enhancing this amazing space are two 17th century watercolors of the solar system created by the Dutch-German mathematician and cosmographer Andreas Cellarius.

The Cellarius Kitchen will be used to host food and wine pairing events as well as cooking demonstrations inviting interaction between the chef and guests. It will also serve as a wonderful environment for a lunch or dinner with a dining room that can comfortably accommodate 32 people. The dining room boasts a dance floor created with reclaimed maple from a historic barn and windows that overlook our cellar. Outside on our veranda, you can appreciate the gorgeous landscapes surrounding you and enjoy the aroma of fresh herbs that adorn each window.

Stag's Leap Wine Cellars hosted its first event in The Cellarius Kitchen on March 14th welcoming the Second Annual Legends of Wine Tribute benefiting the James Beard Foundation. Warren Winiarski, Founder and Owner of Stag's Leap Wine Cellars, was the Guest of Honor. This wine tasting and luncheon featured the highly acclaimed 1973 S.L.V. Cabernet Sauvignon and cuisine prepared by Host Chef Ken Frank of La Toque located in Rutherford, California.
