You may have some questions about that famous wine cave fundraising dinner in Napa Valley last weekend. I may be able to help, as I was there.
The location for the event was the Hall winery near St. Helena, Calif. Yes, its a beautiful place, and, yes, that chandelier over the table was kind of remarkable. The whole scene that evening left me and my partner slack-jawed.
Our host was the celebrated and pioneering female winemaker Kathryn Hall and her husband, Craig. She served as ambassador to Austria under Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush. Hall is wealthy and has a beautiful home, and she chooses to use both to advance candidates and causes she believes in.
Anyway, who else was there? Well, I mentioned my partner. Hes a professor at a community college in the Bay Area. There was also a dean from another local community college system.
