Winkler Dinner

A dinner of six courses, each from a different chef and paired with a different wine. This must be the annual Winkler Dinner, presented by the student organization
DEVO, which stands for Davis Enology and Viticulture Organization.

The dinner, now in its ninth year and heretofore held under the campus’s historic
Winkler Vine, is taking place this year at the new Robert Mondavi Institute for Wine and Food Science. The date is May 16, with dinner at 5 p.m. and silent and live auctions after dinner.

Tickets are $175 per person, or $1,200 for a table for eight. To arrange reservations, contact Dan Person, (707) 536-8451 or dmperson@ucdavis.
