Sierra Mar - Post Ranch Inn

Champagne on the Coast A Celebration with Laurent-Perrier This December, Laurent-Perrier returns to Post Ranch Inn for two evenings celebrating some of the world’s finest Champagnes, paired with exceptional cuisine against the backdrop of the Big Sur coast. Set at the Cooper House, a private residence on the property with a spacious patio overlooking the Pacific, the experience unfolds over two nights, moving from a relaxed masterclass and family-style supper to a formal Grand Siècle dinner poured from Laurent-Perrier’s library. Naomi Smith, Laurent-Perrier’s Vice President of Sales and a longtime friend of Big Sur, will be your guide over both nights. Laurent-Perrier's commitment to sustainable viticulture and innovative winemaking closely reflects our values at Post Ranch Inn, making the house one of our most cherished partners. Night 1: Champagne Masterclass The evening begins on the Cooper House patio, glass in hand, as the sun sets over the Pacific. Naomi then walks guests through the Laurent-Perrier range, with a generous selection of cheeses paired to each pour. A family-style dinner follows, highlighted by Dungeness crab rolls in Meyer lemon butter and a malted vanilla sundae to finish, offering the kind of American classics that pair beautifully with Champagne. Night 2 - Grand Siècle Vertical Dinner Night Two centers on Grand Siècle, Laurent-Perrier’s prestige cuvée, poured as a vertical from its library alongside a multi-course dinner prepared by the Sierra Mar culinary team. Each iteration blends three exceptional vintage years, drawn from Champagne’s Grand Cru villages and aged for more than ten years in the cellars. Along the way, our chefs step out of the kitchen to share a hands-on way to enjoy Champagne beyond the glass. Your ticket includes both evenings and all listed food and Champagne pairings. Gratuity is included. All ticket sales are final and non-refundable; however, tickets may be transferred to another person.
