MadoroM Wine Release Gala and Charity Auction

In just a few short years, MadoroM Vineyards has built up a very loyal following among its many customers. In appreciation for a very special group of customers who have supported MadoroM from the beginning, Owners Andy and Marissa Amador and Winemaker Mike Blom held the release of the 2005 MadoroM Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot at the Bakersfield Country Club on February 28, 2009. This gala release was coupled with dinner and a charity auction for two outstanding charities, the Small Miracles Foundation and the Angioma Alliance. Included in the wine lots donated for this event was the MadoroM donation of one of only two 18L bottles of MadoroM 2005 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.

The evening was a tremendous success with over 200 MadoroM Wine enthusiasts enjoying our extraordinary 2005 MadoroM Napa Valley Merlot, 2005 MadoroM Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, and our first release of 2006 Camouflage. The auction to benefit Small Miracles Foundation (for children with cancer) and the Angioma Alliance (for improving the lives of those suffering from this devastating illness) was also a great success. For more information on these exemplary charities, please visit their websites at www.smallmiraclesfoundation.org and www.angiomaalliance.org.

Andy, Marissa and Mike as well as the entire MadoroM team hope you will join us next year at our next MadoroM Wine Release to be held on February 27, 2010, not only to be among the first to sample another fabulous year of MadoroM wines, but also to enjoy the company of fellow wine enthusiasts.

Thank you to all who came to our 2005 Wine Release Gala and who gave so generously to the charity auction. Thank you to all our wonderful customers who love MadoroM wines and who continue to support us year after year. And, finally, a heartfelt thank you to the Small Miracles Foundation and the Angioma Alliance for the important work they are doing.
