Show 151, December 19, 2015: Adam Craun, Co-Founder, Memento Mori

Adam Craun and the Wainwrights from Momento Mori WineryMemento Mori winery (Napa Valley) is one of the small, exclusive cult boutique producers showcased at Ultimo Weekend. Their 100 per cent Cabernet Sauvignon was poured at the $1,000 per guest Ultimo Grand Banquet – Dinner in the Clouds. This was the eagerly anticipated debut of the just released 2013 vintage. The Winery’s premium Cabernet grapes come from just four highly regarded vineyards in St. Helena and Oakville.

Co-founder Adam Craun is our guest. As always there is an intriguing story here that starts with the name…A portion of the proceeds from the Grand Banquet benefit the ment’or BKB Foundation.
