Celebrated chef Christopher Kostow and hospitality extraordinaire Director Nathaniel Dorn, of three Michelin star The Restaurant at Meadowood, are opening a second project together in St. Helena in the current Tra Vigne location.

“We are inheriting a space whose legacy and history we are acutely aware of. We will do our best to make this town proud,” said Kostow.

Dorn added, “I am looking forward to building a gathering place where friendships will be fostered and conversations will continue for decades to come.”

While the concept is currently under development, it will be centered on a celebratory and casual dining experience.

“St. Helena is our home. My wife and I are active members of this community and we are raising our daughters here,” said Kostow. “We operate our gardens here and we will continue our work here, unabated, at The Restaurant at Meadowood. We are looking at this new project first and foremost through the lens of St. Helena and then through that of the Napa Valley as a whole.”

The new project, which is currently unnamed, is slated to debut sometime in 2016. We’ll be sure to keep you posted on its progress.
