Eat & Drink
Our Wine Tavern experiences introduce you to the fleeting influences that shape Hiyu.
Deeply seasonal dishes featuring ingredients grown or foraged at Hiyu dialogue with our current releases, inspiring conversation, conviviality, and connection.
This spring we are open for lunch on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. For dinner we host a seven course dinner for parties of all sizes on Saturday Night and a multi-course family style meal for larger groups on Thursday, Friday and Sunday nights. Tastings with the winemaker are offered every Saturday and Sunday afternoon. Each month’s meals are guided by the subtle modulations of the season as we explore fleeting flavors that emerge from the field, garden and stars. All experiences require a reservation through Tock at the links below.
Lunch
Friday through Sunday with seatings from 12:00pm to 2:00pm for $150 per person: This five-course lunch celebrates the bounty of the garden and includes a seasonally attuned tasting of our wines. This meal evokes the magical escapes offered by midday repasts of the European countryside.
Dinner
Saturday night at 6:00pm for $250 per person: Feasts are seven-course meals that are paired with our wines. Each dish and its pairing is detailed and intricate. These dinners are seated at either four small private tables looking up into the vineyard or at the chef’s counter. This is the most intimate and subtly unfolding way to experience a meal on the farm. Please refer to the Big Party below where we can accomodate larger groups on other nights of the week.
Dinner bookings must be made five days in advance.
Tasting and Farm Class
This is a seated tasting for up to 12 guests at a communal table with the winemaker Nate Ready.
We’ll taste through a series of our wines from different parcels. During the tasting we’ll discuss our farming and winemaking practices in depth with a focus on the way we work to amplify life on the site and the approaches we use to embed this biological energy in the wines.
This set of wines is different from the wines that we are serving at lunch and dinner on a give day and it is possible to combine it with either of those meals for a more expansive experience. This tasting does not include food.
We will refund two tastings for every purchase of a 12-bottle case or if you join The Understory; the subscription based community that supports our work on the farm.
Tasting bookings must be made 48 hours in advance.
The Big Party
Thursday, Friday and Sunday night at 6:00PM for $300 per person. This meal and tasting experience is built around the needs of larger groups (We can accommodate groups from 6 to 18 people). There is a longer time reserved at the beginning of the meal to drink our white and rosé wines in the glowing light of sunset while we pass around an array of small snacks. The meal itself is a multi-course family-style meal paired with our wines. It’s designed to bring the group together and provide a relaxed ambience where you can share love, thoughts, and ideas.
