Some people say Los Angeles has no seasons but we disagree. From the blooming of the loquat flowers to the dropping of the pomegranates, Los Angeles is awash with seasonal change. We invite you to join us in this homage to the spring solstice, in Angelino style. We will be gathering in a private resience in Angelino Heights to partake in a seasonal 5 course meal with curated handmade locally foraged natural fruit wines. Each course is a collaboration with the wine featuring the taste of spring from locally produced and foraged ingredients.

Some of the wines that will be served is a Lilikoi Lavendar, Pomegranate Mugwort, Weed, and Orange made from oranges, all gathered locally from the neighborhood, fermented and aged for 3 months - 1year. Weed wine will be served, grapefruit wine can be a subsitution.

Fixed 5 course menu prepared with locally grown ingredients with vegetarian options available.

This private residence was built in 1906 by architect Arthur Benton (known for the Mission Inn and Benton Avenue in Silver Lake), this historic home was commissioned by the Stillson family—early developers of Angelino Heights in the late 1800s. Designed for the Stillsons' son, with a companion house across the driveway for his mother, the property is deeply tied to the architectural and development history of early Los Angeles.

Adding to its rich history, Gloria Swanson lived here in 1917 when she was married to actor Wallace Beery—a controversial union, as she was just 17 and he was 30 at the time. The home's legacy spans generations, intertwining with Hollywood's golden age and the foundational years of one of LA's oldest neighborhoods.
