Join us for an exclusive opportunity to taste wine on the very land where the grapes are grown! Experience an afternoon at hOurs Wine Tasting at Marindale Ranch in Novato on Saturday, October 3, 2026, from 2 – 5 pm.
Marindale Ranch, also known as the Grossi Family Home Ranch, is an 870-acre property that has been MALT-protected since 2003. Overlooking scenic Stafford Lake with views of the San Francisco Bay, the ranch supports grass-fed cattle, is home to Sola Bee honey bees, and showcases remarkable biodiversity, from pinot noir vineyards and open pasture to a creek corridor and redwood forests.
It’s on this land that the Grossi family planted a small pinot noir vineyard in 2008, selling fruit to labels like Schramsberg Vineyards and Brooks Note Winery before hOurs Wine was born. Join fellow MALT supporters for an afternoon at Marindale Ranch as we celebrate the launch of their new wine label, sip through Pinot Noir and Rosé, paired with light bites, and enjoy a relaxed afternoon in the vineyard. Hear firsthand from the Grossi family about the tradition of gathering around the table that inspired hOurs and how the partnership with MALT supports their operations – thanks to donors like you.
Tasting starts at 2 pm with a vineyard tour at 3 pm, and winemaker discussion at 4 pm.
And a huge thanks to the Grossi Family for hosting this event for MALT donors!
