An Afternoon with Christy Lynn at Appellation Healdsburg

Sometimes a great collaboration is as simple as good wine, good food, and the right space to enjoy them in. That was the spirit behind our recent lunch with Christy Lynn at Appellation Healdsburg. Set against the backdrop of northern Healdsburg, the afternoon brought together a small group for a relaxed, seated lunch paired with a selection of Bricoleur wines. Each course was designed to highlight the range of Bricoleur's wines, from crisp, food-friendly Viognier to reds with real depth and structure including Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon. 

Christy Lynn's design sensibility paired naturally with Bricoleur's own approach to hospitality: unfussy, warm, and rooted in a sense of place. Lisa Palmer brought the same presence to round out an afternoon that felt more like sitting down with friends than a formal event. Appellation Healdsburg made for the perfect setting, close enough to our Windsor estate to feel like home, with a beautiful outdoor space that let the food and wine take center stage. Lunches like this one are a reminder that the best way to share Bricoleur is often the simplest: pour something good, set a beautiful table, and let the conversation unfold from there.
