World Cafe Live will have the honor of hosting Anthony Truchard, a well known California winemaker. Truchard's Vineyard is a small family owned winery in the Carneros region of Napa Valley, California. Anthony's family helped pioneer grape growing in the Carneros and in 1989 they established a winery and began producing wines using only their estate-grown fruit.

This event is not one to be missed. For only $65/person (which includes wines, dinner, tax, & gratuity) you can enjoy a delicious 6 course menu by Executive Chef Matthew Babbage as well as an array of wines (listed below)!
