  • Winemaker Dinner: Magna Montis

    $165.00 per person

    Prepaid

    May 21, 2025 only
    Join us for a special evening exploring the incredible wines of Magna Montis with winemaker and owner, Martin Dicuzzo. Latin for "Big Mountain", Magna Montis is at the forefront of high elevation Argentinian wine production in the Vallee de Uco, just outside of Mendoza in the Andes mountains. Martin is a visionary winemaker focused on making low intervention, elegant, and terroir driven wines that speak to sense of place in a way few other winemakers in Argentina can match. We are thrilled and honored to welcome Martin and showcase his passion alongside a special menu developed by Chef Thomas Melvin to perfectly compliment the wines.

    Vida does the best job of personalizing an experience, from the valet out front to the people clearing the table. Second to none. And I especially appreciate that they do not rush you through your courses. Dinner at Vida is an experience to fill an evening. Love it!

    Absolutely fantastic experience celebrating a milestone birthday at Vida last night. We had the tasting menu which they were able to modify for me to accommodate a pescatarian diet. Each bite was divine, with the amuse bouches and the dessert being particular favorites for us both. Fantastic cocktails as well. The service from the team was world class, with many special touches that were so thoughtful and appreciated. Highly recommend!

    Vida always surprises me and surpasses es my expectations. This time I tried their new vegetarian menu and to say it was good would be like saying the sun is kinda' warm. lol As it was my birthday anniversary; I treated this poor body and had them pair the four courses with the premium curated wines. They are always attentive and careful about asking if I have any food allergies. Each dish was a delight and the service was far better than I can express with words.

    A gem! Not to miss if you’re on vacation, or live in Indianapolis. We are from out of town and it was an excellent experience. The tasting menu was outstanding, so were reserved wines paired with the food. Great experience.

    Vida was spectacular. We thoroughly enjoyed it as our first time. The place was busy but you got exceptional 1:1 service. We can't wait to go back someday. The food was perfect. We did the chef's tasting.

    Such a special experience! We were celebrating our anniversary and our server, Ryan, ensured we felt welcomed and comfortable all evening. The service was perfect - everyone was attentive without hovering. Every dish described completely. We each had the four course meal and opted for cocktails instead of the wine pairing. The cocktails were unique, and the food was delicious. Starting with a hamachi amuse bouche, which was a perfect bite. We then enjoyed the grilled octopus - perfectly tender - along with the hamachi. Second course of scallops - again perfectly cooked - and foie gras which was incredibly rich. Third course was ribeye for him, barramundi for me - delicious and perfectly executed again. Now I’m stuffed so I got my lemon cake to go but the donuts were really something! This was really a prefect place to celebrate a special evening.
