Hornblower Cruise

Saturday, October 10, 2009

200 Club Chandon Prestige members enjoyed San Francisco's annual Fleet Week celebration on San Francisco Bay on October 10th, 2009. Attendees boarded Hornblower's "Empress" yacht, chartered exclusively for Club Chandon Prestige members and were greeted with a glass of etoile Brut to get the day started on the right track. Guests nibbled on delicious hors d'oeuvres and were the first to sip our newly released 2007 Carneros Pinot Noir as they mingled with winemakers James Kress and Tom Tiburzi. Guests were entertained by the impressive aerial acrobatics, and while the Blue Angels were unable to fly on Saturday due to the Bay Area's famous fog, everyone enjoyed the day on the bay and stunning views of San Francisco.
