Justin "Raymie" Meyer gets his due

Justin Meyer (known as Raymie during his days at Garces High, class of '56) was recently inducted posthumously into the Vintners' Hall of Fame at the Culinary Academy of America in Napa Valley. The writer Gerald Haslam, Meyer's good buddy and a fellow Garces alum, reports that the induction was a grand shindig and a well-deserved honor. Meyer, who helped co-found Silver Oak (there are no finer cabernets in existence, year in and year out) died in 2002.

I interviewed Meyer a few weeks before he died. Read it here.
