Pouring wine for future colleagues

A few weeks ago, I had the privilege to pour wine at Chase Family Cellars in Saint Helena for a gathering of 20 Master Sommelier candidates. The Napa Valley Vintners Association planned the four-day trip around Napa, and I am very happy I got to represent Chase, Alpha Omega, Tres Sabores, Rubissow, Storybook Mountain, Laird Family, and Cornerstone Cellars at this excellent BBQ on the Chase Family Vineyards property.
