Wine for 115th US Open Provided by 117-year-old Washington Family Firm
UNIVERSITY PLACE, Wash., June 18, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Golf's 115th Annual US Open Championship is being held at the Robert Trent Jones, Jr.-designed Chambers Bay course on Puget Sound. 156 of the world's best golfers will compete in this first US Open to be held in the Pacific Northwest.
What will wine-loving US Open attendees at Chambers Bay be drinking? If they visit corporate sponsor tents, they'll be enjoying Washington wine: Buried Cane Chardonnay and Buried Cane Cabernet Sauvignon by the glass, Cadaretta SBS (Sauvignon Blanc/Semillon blend) and a Betz red wine by the bottle.
These were the only four wines selected by the exclusive catering supplier for the US Open 2015, Ridgewell's Catering of Washington DC.
Tickets to the championship rounds beginning on Thursday June 18 sold out in February. The USGA made 30,000 tickets per day available for those rounds. Four championship round days means 120,000 daily-tickets sold.
There won't be 120,000 corporate sponsor tent visitors, but there will be plenty of Washington wine to savor. Washington State's Middleton family is proud to hold Washington's wine flag high during the US Open.
Cadaretta and Buried Cane are owned and operated by the Middleton family, and their Middleton Family Wines company. The Middletons have been in business in Washington State since 1898, only three years after golf's first US Open was held (1895 in Newport, Rhode Island ... six World War year championships were cancelled).
