Dolores Cakebread

This collection of 100 recipes and wine pairings from one of America’s premier wine brands celebrates 25 years of the Cakebread Cellars American Harvest Workshop, a groundbreaking annual event that explores Napa Valley’s vibrant food and wine culture.

Every September during harvest season, the Cakebreads invite star chefs, local farmers, and the media to their iconic family-run winery for a weekend of tasting, talking, cooking, and sharing. Each night is capped off by an extraordinary dinner prepared by the participating chefs using the cheeses, lamb, sausages, mushrooms, honey, and other seasonal ingredients provided by local purveyors for the event. These spectacular dishes—from appetizers to entrees and desserts—are adapted for home cooking in this unique collection that spotlights the techniques and flavors of Northern California’s wine country.
