NAIDU at Zingari
Prepare for an unforgettable experience as we invite you to have an intimate dinner with the winemaker and visionary of Naidu wines, Raghni Naidu. As our honored guest, Raghni will guide you through an evening of culinary enchantment, sharing the intricacies of her winemaking craft and the heartfelt stories that have shaped each bottle of her exceptional wines. This is a unique opportunity to connect intimately with a winemaker who has not only crafted wines of unparalleled quality but has also earned accolades, including recognition by the Michelin Guide, Wine Enthusiast and Forbes.
Since 2001, when Naidu planted their estate Pinot Noir vineyard with Dijon Clones 115 & 777 and Rootstock 101-14, they have been producing fine wines from quality Pinot Noir grapes in the Sonoma Coast region of stunning Blucher Valley on fine sandy loam soil of Goldridge. Naidu Family's pledge of hard work, perseverance, and grit — while remembering to always pay — has manifested in quality, innovation, and passion that translates into their wines. Naidu wine focuses on single varietals coming from single vineyards that are a true expression of their terroir.
This dinner party promises to be a true celebration of the art of winemaking, set against the backdrop of Italian cuisine in the heart of downtown San Francisco. End the night on a high note at our Negroni after party, where you can share drinks to the beats of DJ Nut-N-Nice. RSVP today!
