When you purchase a bottle of Mixed Breed wine at any Los Angeles County Total Wine and More, spcaLA earns a $3 donation. Can’t make it to the tasting but want to purchase Mixed Breed?

“I like to make wines that are elegant and have good balance. My style of wine has forward fruit that carries to the mid-palate and a long sustained finish. I like to use the oak to enhance the varietal identity of the wine and not mask it. Wines that are jammy and alcoholic are not my style.” – Chaim Gur-Arieh, Ph.D.
Come for the tasting, stay for the “Art of the Blend” seminar from 4pm to 5pm:
