A once-in-a-generation tribute to 80 years of excellence.

For eight decades, Chino Farm has quietly shaped the course of American cuisine.

From its fields in Rancho Santa Fe, generations of chefs have sought out the farm’s extraordinary produce—ingredients celebrated on some of the world’s most acclaimed menus and credited with helping define the California culinary movement.

On Thursday, November 5, the San Diego Food + Wine Festival and Fairmont Grand Del Mar invite guests to a singular evening honoring the 80th Anniversary of Chino Farm.

This extraordinary dinner will bring together the Chino family alongside a collection of celebrated chefs, culinary luminaries, and winemakers from Napa Valley for a multi-course experience inspired by the farm’s remarkable legacy and the ingredients that have made it an icon among chefs and food lovers alike.

Hosted within the elegant setting of Fairmont Grand Del Mar, the evening will showcase the beauty of the seasonal harvest alongside exceptional Napa Valley wines, bringing together two of California’s great agricultural traditions around one table.

Throughout the evening, guests will have the opportunity to meet the winemakers behind the wines and discover the stories, people and places behind each glass. Because while Napa Valley is known around the world for exceptional wine, wine is ultimately about something much simpler: bringing people together around the table. Tonight, it’s Napa.

More than a dinner, this is a tribute to the people, partnerships, and passion that have shaped California cuisine for generations.

Join us for a rare and unforgettable celebration of heritage, craftsmanship, and the enduring influence of Chino Farm.
