ABOUT NAPA IN NEW YORK
Experience an intimate night of fine wine from Napa Valley hosted by Platinum Inc, Andy Volz, Anthony Ferrantello and AVF Development Corp.
Indulge in a delectable four-course meal paired with rare wines from Simon Family Estate and acclaimed winemaker Maayan Koschitzky. Sourced from some of Napa Valley’s most highly acclaimed vineyard sites, these wines are not to be missed.
Duchenne is one of the most common and severe forms of muscular dystrophy. It affects roughly 1 in 5,000 male births but sometimes affects females as well. In all cases, Duchenne is caused by mutations in the gene encoding for dystrophin, a protein muscles need to work properly. It is 100% fatal.
Meet the Winery
As immigrants who moved to America decades ago, Simon Family Estate understands the value of working hard, building relationships and relying on each other as family. There have been no silver spoons in their lives. But there has been plenty of joy: in the risks that have resulted in success, in the dreams that have been fulfilled. Creating their own portfolio of Napa Valley wines is another dream, one we pursue with the tenacity, humility and enthusiasm borne of their early experiences.
