An Intimate Dinner with Jon Bonné at The Pheasant

Saturday, December 13 at 6:00 PM
Family-style dinner and wine conversation

Join us for a very special evening with acclaimed author and wine writer Jon Bonné, celebrating the release of his latest book, The New French Wine: Redefining the World’s Greatest Wine Culture.

Jon is one of the most influential voices in the world of wine — he is currently the Managing Editor of RESY, after spending several years as Senior Contributing Editor for PUNCH, where his work won him Feature Writer of the Year at the Roederer Awards, and Best Columnist from the IACP.

For nearly a decade, he served as the Wine Editor and Chief Wine Critic of The San Francisco Chronicle, where he co-edited its Food & Wine section and earned numerous accolades, including some of the nearly dozen honors he’s received from the James Beard Foundation.


This intimate, family-style dinner will pair a beautifully curated menu from The Pheasant’s kitchen with a guided exploration of wines that embody the new spirit of France. Jon will share stories and insights from his journey across French wine regions and the dynamic producers leading a new generation of excellence.

Seating is limited for this one night only event. Join us at the table for an evening of conversation, connection, and exceptional food and wine.
