Join celebrated Seattle restaurateur Chef Ethan Stowell at Goldfinch Tavern for an exclusive five-course wine dinner featuring Mark Ryan Winery. What began in 1999 with just a few tons of grapes in a friend’s garage has since grown into the 14th largest winery in Washington State. For this special evening, our new Executive Chef, Andrea Ferrandi, and his culinary team will present a thoughtfully curated menu, each dish intentionally paired with Mark Ryan’s acclaimed wines. The dinner will showcase standout vintages such as the vibrant 2023 Sauvignon Blanc from Quintessence Vineyard and the bold 2021 Long Haul Red Wine from Columbia Valley. Throughout the evening, Mark Ryan McNeilly, Founder & Winemaker, will share insights into his meticulous approach to winemaking - one that has earned Mark Ryan Winery both critical praise and a devoted following.

This intimate dinner promises an unforgettable night of extraordinary cuisine, exceptional wines, and stories from some of Washington’s most influential culinary and winemaking voices.
