Montemar Winemaker Dinner

Rustic Kitchen Presents… 

An intimate evening of exploration and discovery

​Steve and Caryn Arrowood started making wine in their garage in 1991, and became a bonded winery in 2009.  Montemar sources all its fruit from top vineyards in Santa Barbara County by leasing specific blocks and controlling all aspects of farming.    Today, their son Kyle carries forward the family winemaking at Montemar and produces approximated 1400 cases per year, averaging less than 100 cases per lot. 

Special Guests  Kyle Arrowood & Layne Johnson, Winemakers
