The Sunday w**e-down Pool Party is a Healdsburg W**e & Food Experience tradition. Appellation Healdsburg offered an incredible location for VIPs, chefs, and makers to dip, sip, and snack after a weekend of w**e and food fun.

Cocktails from Rue de Reve and beers from Peroni were refreshing Sunday beverages along with w**es from Marine Layer and Rodney Strong Vineyards. Zero-proof options were also available from Glasrose and Solubrae. Along with coffee from Graffeo Coffee!

Chef Charlie Palmer and the Appellation team grilled BBQ chicken with all the fixings out on the pool deck. While California Caviar Co. rounded out the HWFE weekend with poolside caviar bumps alongside hydration IVs from The Lounge Healdsburg.

The Big Bottle Party is always the hottest w**e party of the year! VIPs got an hour of early access which included w**es from Silver Oak and Casa Obsidiana Tequila. Everyone was greeted with a welcome pour of Ca’del Bosco magnums and then enjoyed large-format w**es, magnums, jeroboams, and beyond from high-end Sonoma County and global producers.

Late-night bites by Chefs Dustin Valette included porchetta sandwiches, smoked Westholme wagyu tri-tip, and aged whole tuna, while Chef Lee Anne Wong created fried Point Reyes Cheese TomaRashi sticks and Liberty Duck dumplings with California Caviar.

Every level of The Matheson transformed into an unforgettable food and w**e playground: Sushi by Scratch Restaurants pop-up omakase tasting, Ch*****ne PIAFF w**e lounge, Evil ‘Tinis from Evil Bean Spirits and Tequila El Mexicano, Peroni beers flowing, Pop Fiction rocking out on the main floor while the rooftop grooved to DJs Tamer and Sunwoo from Salty Sundays.

It was a night of BIG bottles and BIG memories!
