Vine to Cellar Event - Friday, November 6

I have volunteered to help pull together some last-minute details and rally a few more attendees for the "Vine to Cellar" wine industry event at the Allison Inn & Spa in Newberg, Ore. on November 6-7. The event is intended to provide both something of a celebration at this beautiful new hospitality venue as well as substantive vineyard/wine business discussion forums. Moss Adams' wine industry accountants from Santa Rosa, Silicon Valley Bank's wine division leaders, and Tanner Creek Energy will be sharing insights, along with some of our industry's founders. Should be good food, good content, and good company.

Please register and make plans to join us if you can.

Break Bread

On September 23, top restaurant executives from around the country joined DWT and their co-hosts in Beverly Hills to "Break Bread," discussing the compelling business and legal issues facing the restaurant industry today.

Presenters included Kevin Brown, President of Lettuce Entertain You, Inc., Dick Rivera, CEO of RealMex, Jim Parrish of Parrish Partners, Mario Del Pero, President, Mendocino Farms, Tony Shure, co-founder Chop't Creative Salad Company, and chef Jose Andreas.

The presentation was followed by a lively reception.

It was DWT's third annual event in Los Angeles, hosted by national restaurant practice group chair Riley Lagesen. It has quickly become one of the "must attend" events in the restaurant industry.
