Join Lloyd Cellars for a romantic evening of rare wine tasting that begins with a champagne reception under the stars at Santa Barbara’s charming old-world Carousel House. Extremely limited reserve-level wines are matched with gourmet appetizers from top local chefs, artisan cheeses, fresh fruits, olive oils, and more, while live music keeps things super cool.
Heritage Fire – Austin, TX
Presented by Cochon555, join Lloyd Cellars and Prescription Vineyards for Heritage Fire, a premiere, whole-animal, nationwide food and wine tour celebrating heritage breed livestock and heirloom produce. The daytime feast offers an endless array of sustainably sourced food from the region’s top family farms and local purveyors, prepared by some of the region’s best chefs.
The Heritage Fire Tour comprises an array of live expressions and cultivates a long-term impact on heritage species. Both educational and inspirational messages are circulated among 10,000 guests; 250-plus chefs, 150-plus family farms, and numerous culinary schools each year. Everyone loves a little friendly competition, and at Heritage Fire, guests will vote for Best Bite of the Day, and the winner will be crowned Heritage Hero.

Guests are invited to sip on Lloyd Cellars and other fine wines while tasting a variety of delicacies at the beautiful Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort & Spa, where its beach-chic hotel provides awe-inspiring views of the Pacific Ocean. This is an elegant VIP event for true fine wine lovers, located in one of Orange County’s most beautiful coastal cities – Dana Point. The limited number of tickets sell out quickly (due to the rarity of the wines being poured). A champagne reception is just the prelude to an evening of sampling hard-to-find trophy wines to an adoring crowd dressed in their finest casual/elegant resort wear.
Beachside Wine Festival at Sea Terrace Park
Prescription Vineyards and Lloyd Cellars invite you to the quintessential California wine tasting experience – sun, sea, food, wine, and music (we’re the stage sponsor!) – all come together at this sun-splashed wine fest at our brand new grassy, palm-lined venue, Sea Terrace Park. By 1:00 pm the event is in full swing at this Camelot-like white-topped tent village next to the sparkling Pacific Ocean. Wine lovers find hundreds of fine wines, regional craft brews, and a dizzying variety of foods to sample, including artisanal cheeses, bread, olive oil, chocolates, and more! Upstream, a Caribbean steel band, maintains a happy beat to the day for this all-day feast for the senses.
MUSEXPO 2024, the highly regarded annual global music business conference and showcase event produced by A&R Worldwide, will return to Los Angeles from March 17th through 20th. Lloyd Cellars and Prescription Vineyards will again join the convo with our friends from Wine Militia and media partner Monarch Wine to host the wines for the Sunday night Opening Gala and Monday’s pre-showcase reception at SIR Sound Stages in Hollywood.

From this hilltop perch with sensational views, we’ll host the wines for Tuesday’s pre-showcase wine reception and Wednesday’s VIP Executive Networking Gala Dinner.

Present
At Vintage Wine Merchants, Santana Row
377 Santana Row, Suite 1135
Prescription Vineyards is celebrating our multi-year sponsorship of the San Jose Int’l Short Film Festival and our recent feature article in The Somm Journal magazine. The ‘Aerating the Sun’ story and interview with Winemaker Rob Lloyd highlight why our Chardonnay makes such an excellent wine for restaurant By-the-Glass (BTG) programs.
Amazingly, after providing the editors with a list of venues that showcase us BTG, they chose to interview Issei Chiba of Santana Row’s Vintage Wine Merchants. The hybrid wine shop and wine bar are directly across the street from the film festival’s venue, Cinemark’s CineArts Theatre. If you’d like to attend the San Jose Int’l Short Film Fest, use PROMO CODE: PV2022 to receive 20% off on all tickets!
Issei also pairs our Prescription Vineyard’s Clarksburg Chardonnay with the kitchen’s ‘Mortadell-Burrata Pizza,’ so it seemed apropos to serve up hosted bites of this delicious pie during the event. To round out the experience, we’ll also share tastes of our Lloyd Cellars Carneros Chardonnay and Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir. The event will be a great opportunity to pre-stock your wine cellar for the upcoming holiday 2022 season!
Please email Joel@LloydCellars.com to RSVP for Saturday’s complimentary wine tasting!

Prescription Cellars 2019 Chardonnay, Clarksburg ($20)
Enhanced by notes of chervil, oregano, and chamomile, a luscious lemon meringue eeks out at mid-palate. Crushed stone, white pepper and vibrant minerality – plus that spark of acidity – is just the right Rx for its great food-pairing abilities. 92
Lloyd Cellars 2020 Chardonnay, Carneros ($40)
Creamy notes of toasted vanilla, with a surge of cookie dough, ripe melon, kiwi, and peanut brittle. The wine caresses with a sumptuous touch. 94
Prescription Cellars 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon, Alexander Valley, Sonoma County ($30)
Grainy tannins fulfill a mission to coat the teeth with blueberry compote. The gushing, dynamo of a wine features plump plums, powdered cocoa, and blooming lavender. This Prescription is really an over-the-counter cure for disbelievers of Alexander Valley’s side effect of textural lushness. Winemaker Rob Lloyd over-delivers on some amazing medicine for the soul. 93
Lloyd Cellars by Robert Lloyd 2019 Pinot Noir, Sta. Rita Hills, Santa Barbara County ($50)
Its carmine hue is deep and inviting, and scents of heather and a woodsy forest are sensual. Full and generous with a lather of huckleberry and dark chocolate coffee bean. Layers of tilled soil and dried flowers keep it exciting and complex. The brown-sugared cinnamon finish goes deep on the finish. 94
Lloyd Cellars and Prescription Vineyards are so excited for 2022 and getting back on the road to share our wines with our fans and new friends. Along with participating in many classic festivals such as South Beach Food & Festival, three California Wine Festivals (Dana Point, Carlsbad, and Santa Barbara), and Austin Food & Wine Festival, we’ll also be producing our own signature events in select cities. These celebrations include Friday-Eve Live, Ferments & Fashion, and Art of the Sip. You’ll see in our featured list below, we do have some TBA’s, which we’ll be filling in as more event partners are confirmed.
