What this episode covers

On this week’s Vine Wine & Dine, we welcome Dan Kosta of Convene and DK Wine Group to explore his journey from restaurant floor to co-founding Kosta Browne, and now launching the Convene Wine Lounge located at Bacchus Landing in Healdsburg. Dan shares stories from his early career as John Ash’s wine director, co-founding Kosta Browne, and what inspired him to start Convene. We taste three standout wines: the 2023 Convene Russian River Chardonnay paired with Roof 106 ceviche, the 2022 Convene Russian River Valley Pinot paired with roasted chilipepper cod, and the 2021 Grail Campbell Ranch Pinot paired with tempura mushrooms. Learn how Dan sources vineyards, approaches cool-climate fruit, and crafts wines with Burgundian influence. Plus, hear about the Grail library program and aging potential of Russian River Pinots. Tune in for a rich blend of wine, food, and the story behind one of Sonoma County’s most exciting new wine experiences.
