About

Dashe Cellars is a family-owned artisan winery located in the heart of the Urban Wine Country at Alameda Point. After 15 years in Oakland’s Jack London Square district, Dashe Cellars moved to Spirits Alley on the old Naval Airbase in Alameda, CA.

They focus on crafting wines with a distinctive sense of place and look for that perfect balance of steep hillside vineyards, older vines, and vigor-reducing growing conditions.

Founded by Michael and Anne Dashe, Dashe Cellars crafted its first vintage of Dry Creek Zinfandel in 1996. Since that time, the Dashe’s have focused on producing exceptional, single-vineyard wines using a traditional, non-industrial approach to winemaking

The Experience, Alameda: C’era Una Volta Kitchen + Catering Honored

The Experience:

Chef Rudy meets Capitol royalty

It was an incredible honor for C’era Una Volta to cook for Senator Nancy Pelosi at the Italian Consulate in San Francisco recently. From burrata to branzino, Chef Rudy brought the flavors — and the flair! Rudy exclaimed, “Grazie mille to the Consulate for the warm hospitality and an unforgettable afternoon.” And yes… there was Torta della Nonna involved.
