Inspired by Daniel Bruce’s award winning restaurant Meritage, we present Meritage Madness. This year we will taste many different vintages of these Bordeaux-style wines from Sonoma and Napa Valley from different vintages. Participants will have the opportunity to taste contrasting styles while listening to comments from our panel of wine professionals and then voting on their favorite meritage of the night.
