OPTIONAL EVENTS
Opening Reception Wine Tasting – Monday, February 20 – 5:30 pm
Ray Coniglio of Precision Metal Services, will be providing wines from his family vineyard for a Napa Wine Tasting Event, during our opening reception. Charles E. and Steven C. Coniglio founded Coniglio Wines in 2001. Their vision is to produce hand crafted single vineyard wines that reflect the uniqueness and express the nuances of Cabernet Sauvignon from each mountain district in the Napa Valley. Charles has wine in his blood, a second generation Italian-American, whose grandfather came to the United States in 1892 from Cerda, Sicily, one of Sicily's finest winemaking areas. Charles' passion for fine wines has been handed down from generations of Italian winemakers. The fee to participate is $30.00 per person.
