Cheese, glorious cheese! If you love the intricate tastes of the many cheeses of the world, this is the event for you. Discover the behind-the-scenes passion that Blackberry Farm dedicates to its cheese program.
In addition to Blackberry's cheese offerings, we are excited to welcome world-renowned cheese expert Kent Torrey. Kent first came to The Cheese Shop in Carmel in 1986. Featured on the Travel Channel as a must-see destination and recognized by Food Network for its famous pesto, The Cheese Shop offers 300 varieties from 20 countries, and is known as a mecca for tourists and local gourmet food and wine lovers.
On the same spectacular Pacific coast of California, Sea Smoke produces Pinot Noir that reflects the unique microclimate, soils and exposure of the nearby Santa Ynez River canyon and its maritime fog known as sea smoke to locals. As Sea Smoke's vice president and general manager, Victor Gallegos does everything from managing finances to stirring biodynamic preparations to tasting blends with the winemaker.
