There are celebrations…..and then there are moments you will never forget….
And sometimes those moments involve stealing a ceramic sloth planter from someone you met twenty minutes ago. 😂
Welcome to a very merry edition of Malibu Sessions — our intimate recurring series hosted by winemaker Sonja Magdevski at her private ocean-view home in Point Dume, exclusively for our beloved Clementine Carter Wine Club Members + guests.
This time, we're adding a little holiday mischief.
🎁 BRING A GIFT. STEAL A GIFT. EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED.
It’s time for a White Elephant Party!
Bring one wrapped gift that is funny, quirky, surprisingly useful, wonderfully unnecessary, or so spectacularly ridiculous that everyone in the room will suddenly decide they need it.
Think…
🪨 A pet rock with an unnecessarily elaborate backstory
🦄 An inflatable unicorn nobody knew they needed
🐔 An emotional-support chicken
🪴 A planter shaped like something that should never have become a planter
🎄 A truly questionable holiday sweater
😂 Or that wonderfully bizarre thing you spot and immediately think, “WHO would buy this?”
You. You buy it.
Then wrap it up and bring it to Malibu.
Suggested gift value: $15–$25.
We'll draw numbers, unwrap gifts, steal from one another with absolutely no remorse, and see which treasures — or catastrophes — everyone ends up taking home.
All while overlooking the Pacific with a glass of Clementine Carter wine in hand. 🍷🌊
✨ WHAT AWAITS YOU
🌊 Spectacular Point Dume ocean views in an intimate setting
🍷 Thoughtfully curated Clementine Carter wines
🧀 Seasonal bites + holiday treats
🎁 A White Elephant gift exchange with plenty of stealing
😂 Great people + lots of laughs
🌅 Golden-hour Malibu magic overlooking the Pacific
🎄 A little holiday cheer — Clementine Carter style
Perched above the Pacific, Malibu Sessions brings together wine lovers, creatives, thinkers, adventurers, and friends for afternoons and evenings of meaningful conversation, exceptional wines, and the simple pleasure of gathering in a beautiful place.
No two sessions are exactly alike.
And we're pretty confident this one won't be like any of the others.
Because Malibu Sessions is less about a formal event and more about creating space — for conversation, connection, inspiration, laughter, and joy.
This December, we're adding a little friendly thievery to the list. 😉
Funny gifts. Good wine. Better people.
Come for the wine.
Stay for the people.
Steal the gift.
Leave with a story.
