Wednesday Night Wine Flight: March 2

Yolo County's Crew Wine Co. is sending one of its crew, assistant winemaker Lacey Steffi, back to her alma mater to represent Crew at at the next Wednesday Night Wine Flight: March 2.

Dan Cederquist, another alum, is the Crew winemaker — and a partner in the winery with John and Lane Guguiere.

Previously, John and Lane Guguiere and their brother and brother-in-law, Karl Guguiere, started R.H. Phillips Winery in 1983, putting out such noted labels as Toasted Head. They sold the winery in 2000, and, five years later, John and Lane started Crew Wine Co.

Wednesday Night Wine Flights are scheduled the first Wednesday of every month, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Gunrock Pub on the south side of the Silo. The pub partners with the Vintage Aggies Wine Club in presenting the "wine flight" events. Admission is $10, and no reservations are needed.

Cheese Loves Beer III: March 5

The program is schduled from 1 to 5:30 p.m. Saturday, March 5, in the RMI's Sensory Theatre. The cost is $55 for the general public, $45 for Friends of the RMI, and UC Davis staff, faculty and students. Registration and more information.
