Wines: Eleven Eleven 2021 Chardonnay and 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon What happens when a real estate investment guru switches lanes and heads for the vineyards? Today, we"re sipping and savoring with Ellie Anest, co-founder and CEO of Eleven Eleven Wines, a visionary who used her finance and marketing prowess to break into the world of winemaking. Ellie takes us through her journey from big city real estate to the idyllic Oak Knoll AVA, revealing the inspiration behind her vineyard home and the unique concept of luxury rental properties offered by Eleven Eleven Wines. We’ll pop open two wines  from Eleven Eleven, including a tantalizing Chardonnay from the esteemed Dutton Ranch in Sonoma Valley. We’re not just talking grapes and goblets today; we’re uncovering the rich narrative behind the Eleven Eleven wine brand in Napa Valley. Ellie shares Eleven Eleven"s commitment to quality and excellence, focusing on single vineyard, small production wines. Find out the significance of the name Eleven Eleven and join us in a tasting session featuring the XI Cabernet Sauvignon, a robust blend of five Bordeaux varietals from the estate"s original vineyard. We cap things off with a journey into the heart of boutique wineries, where Ellie spills the secrets of Eleven Eleven"s resilience amidst the turbulence and transformation brought about by COVID-19.
