TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK 2024

It’s been said that teaching is the single most important profession, and we are inclined to agree. Teacher Appreciation Week will be celebrated at Lescombes Family Vineyards locations, from May 6-10. We will be honoring teachers from New Mexico that dine with us during this week with a $10 thank you card valid on their next visit with us. Educators can take advantage of this during the promotional period at our Albuquerque, Las Cruces, Alamogordo, Santa Fe, and Deming locations.

“It’s our annual tradition to take some time and let our community teachers know that we appreciate them and everything they do,” noted Director, Wayne Moore.

It’s not an easy job—with long hours, always changing standards and stressful evaluations. However educators all over the nation overcome these challenges and continue to make a difference in our young people’s lives.

“I remember arriving in New Mexico at eleven years old,” recollects Proprietor, Florent Lescombes. “I didn’t know a single bit of English—and there I was, enrolled in Mrs. Saunder’s fifth-grade class at Alameda Elementary. It was such a supportive environment, within months I was well on my way.”

The Lescombes family and team urge the community to take the time to thank teachers everywhere, whether during Teacher Appreciation Week or simply in daily life in your community.


Mother’s Day Special

Mother’s Day is just around the corner, and what better way to celebrate Mom than with a special meal at our locations in Alamogordo, Albuquerque, Las Cruces, and Santa Fe? We’re excited to introduce two mouthwatering Mother’s Day specials that are sure to delight her taste buds: Baked Penne Rustica and Pan-Seared Chilean Sea Bass. Plus, add a glass of any of our 631 Signature wines to one of these specials for only $7

Our Baked Penne Rustica is a comforting classic, featuring penne pasta, sautéed shrimp, chicken, and bacon tossed with a rich cream sauce, topped with parmesan and panko, then baked to perfection. It’s a hearty and satisfying dish that Mom is sure to love.

For seafood lovers, our Pan-Seared Chilean Sea Bass is an exquisite choice. Sourced from the pristine coastal waters of Chile, our sea bass is expertly seared to lock in its delicate flavor, graced with Semillon beurre blanc and crispy capers, and served with a medley of seasonal vegetables and creamy risotto. It’s a light and elegant option that will make Mom feel truly pampered.

Treat Mom to a memorable dining experience this Mother’s Day by joining us at one of our locations. Our friendly staff and inviting atmosphere provide the perfect setting for celebrating the special women in our lives.

Make your reservation today (by phone or in person) to ensure seating is available for this special occasion. We look forward to welcoming you and your family as we honor and celebrate Mom’s special day.

About the Artist, Brent Cooper

I was born and raised in Mobile, Alabama. I am the 6th son of 7 boys and a graduate of Eastern New Mexico University. I work in education and have been painting since the age of 13. I love the weather here in New Mexico. When it comes to the state question of “red or green,” I’m a Christmas guy. I’m a big fan of high school sports and I love to teach kids basketball skills. In my free time, I love to visit art galleries to appreciate the work of others.
