About this event
It was no less than a wine country miracle: as the recent Napa Valley fires surrounded Boeschen Vineyards, firefighters managed to save this 11-acre, family-owned vineyard and its 1890 home along the SIlverado Trail from complete destruction.
Join award-winning wine author and speaker Mark Oldman as he interviews Boeschen cofounder and vintner Doug Boeschen about this remarkable escape and how how he and his fellow winemakers are surviving in the aftermath of the terrible fires.
You can order in advance the exact wines that Mark and Doug will be tasting, although this is not a prerequisite. Otherwise, feel free to sip along with your own wine or just watch as we toast the fortitude and resilience of Northern California's wine community and its brave first responders. The wines are:
Wine 1: Boeschen Vineyards Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2018
Wine 2: Boeschen Vineyards Carrera Estate Blend Napa Valley 2018
