Celebrate Hanukkah at Alisal Ranch with a two-night holiday experience unlike any other. On December 17, Chef Suzanne Tracht brings her soulful, modern interpretations of Jewish comfort food to the ranch for an intimate dinner. Her menu blends tradition with creativity, and every course is paired with exceptional wines selected by Jeff Morgan of Covenant Wines, our exclusive partner for the evening.
The celebration continues the next morning with coffee and candle making from 10–11 a.m. Join author and lifestyle personality Trisha Cole for a hands-on workshop where you’ll craft your own set of beeswax Hanukkah candles. That afternoon at 4 p.m., enjoy a kosher wine tasting hosted by Jeff Morgan, complete with appetizers inspired by his acclaimed cookbook.
Book a two-night stay, December 17–19, 2025, to enjoy this unforgettable culinary celebration and full access to ranch activities. Ride through the rolling Santa Ynez hills on horseback, warm up by the fire, savor seasonal treats, and explore the wide-open beauty of Alisal. Your stay also includes a signature Alisal Ranch welcome gift and a $50 Mercantile gift card for holiday shopping.
Gather with us and make this Hanukkah truly memorable.
While not strictly kosher, the dinner menu honors kosher traditions by excluding pork and shellfish.
Reserve your experience today.
