CERA Annual Meeting--with TACO TRUCK!

07/28/2010 - 15:30
07/28/2010 - 19:00

Come one, come all to CERA's Annual Meeting. 

We have tinkered with the format to make it easier for people to attend and to stay once the talks are done.

We will have the usual committee recaps and we plan to have speakers discuss extracted tannins in winemaking and tannin management in the vineyard.

And we'll have a taco truck!

Please bring a bottle of wine to share.

The meeting will be at Gundlach-Bundschu winery in Sonoma.

Please RSVP to Scott Sublett, CERA Vice-President. ssublett [at] tfewines [dot] com
