    All eyes these days are on the hip Sonoma County town of Healdsburg! From its dining scene which now boasts the #46 restaurant in the world on the World's 50 Best list, to its local vineyards that have produced 100-point wines. All things are heating up in this Sonoma County city. Which brings us to one of the hottest local collaborations, between Chef Dustin Valette & Winemaker Jesse Katz. Dustin Valette owns Valette , The Matheson Healdsburg , and has an eponymous wine label that recently brought in local hero Jesse Katz to collaborate. Jesse's brands include Aperture Cellars , Devil Proof Vineyards , and The Setting Wines where he has crafted 100-point wines AND a now infamous 6L bottle of The Setting Wines' 2019 Glass Slipper Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, fetching a record $1 million at a charity auction in New Orleans back in November of 2021.
