He has worked at several Tom Douglas restaurants in Seattle including Etta's, Dahlia Bakery, Dahlia Lounge and Sitka & Spruce. http://www.foodandwine.com/best_new_chefs/cormac-mahoney Hand of God and Avennia- Both represent the best of place here and there. Boutique. New. These wines are the inspiration and passion of two former Microsoft colleagues; Jon Staenberg and Marty Taucher.
*The Hand of God vineyards are located at the base of the Andes in Mendoza Argentina and this one of the very first release events for the wine. http://www.handofgodwines.com/
*Avennia, located in Woodinville, was co-founded by Marty Taucher and Winemaker Chris Peterson, formerly with DeLille Cellars. Their goal is to make wines that evoke clarity: clarity of place, clarity of type, clarity of purpose: wines are designed to tease rather than flaunt; pique interest, not beg for attention. They stand for elegance, delicacy, purity. http://www.avennia.com/ The Microsoft Alumni Foundation- Our mission is to catalyze the collective power of the Microsoft Alumni Family and leverage our resources to make a difference for others.
