Cruse Wine Tasting
with winemaker Michael Cruse
Thursday, 5/16, 5-7pm
complimentary

Today, Thursday, May 16, we are excited to have winemaker Michael Cruse presenting four of his wines to you!

Cruse Wine Company is his small winery in Petaluma dedicated to making uniquely Californian wine for your table, often with bubbles. Cruse creates wines that are fruit-driven, fresh and delicious, but still serious. The roots of the North Coast run deep with Michael, so he chooses to focus on sites within Napa, Sonoma, Mendocino and Contra Costa Counties to craft these wines. Uninterested in creating yet another Pinot Noir or Cabernet, he instead finds inspiration in lesser-known varieties such as Valdiguie, Tannat, Carignan and St. Laurent.
