You are invited to attend the annual Alumni Wine Tasting Reception on Sunday, July 28, 2013 in the beautiful southern Napa Valley at the award-winning vineyard owned by alumnus, Bart O'Brien (MSIA '81) and his wife, Barb. We look forward to a relaxing afternoon with you and the Tepper alumni community.

The afternoon will begin at 1:00 p.m. and will include a buffet style lunch, Chardonnay, Merlot, and Seduction wine tasting, a winery tour, and a stroll through the beautiful vineyard. O'Brien Estate was purchased from John Costello in March 2000. Bart O'Brien is a 1981 graduate from the Tepper School and a seasoned entrepreneur and inspirational leader who has been on the founding team of three companies; one which is growing successfully in a pre-IPO stage, another which was acquired for $250 million, and a third which went public with an initial market capitalization of $1.8 billion. The winery was built in 1978 and produces approximately 8,400 cases of Chardonnay annually. The winery is unusual in that it is entirely self-contained, with everything required to turn grapes into wine, including a bottling line. The family-owned vineyard produces a wonderful Chardonnay, a rich, voluptuous Merlot and the award-winning Seduction, a Bordeaux-style blend.

Registration is limited so we advise you to RSVP as soon as possible online. The event is sponsored by the San Francisco Bay Area Alumni Chapter of the Tepper School of Business and open to all Carnegie Mellon alumni and their guests. The cost is $50.00 per person. Make payments online at time of registration. A special rate of $25.00 is for our new graduates (Class of 2012), summer interns and newly-admitted students.

Often couples arrange an overnight stay at a nearby inn. Children under 16 years of age are free, however, we do ask that you RSVP for them as your guests so that we know how many to anticipate. We will have a number of activities for younger children including a Slip 'N Slide so bring along their suits. Please include your children's ages when you register by tying their age after their first name.
