Hi All,
I am very excited to say The Crush Challenge is back in 2021! I will be riding in Memory of Norman deLeuze, ZD Wines Founder and my father, who started our relationship and support of Dr. Tuscano and UC Davis in search of non toxic cures for cancer. I look forward to a great day of wine, food, cycling and supporting our charities: UC Davis Health - Comprehensive Cancer Center and our UC Davis Professorship and also benefitting the Boys and Girls Club Teen Center of Napa.
Crush Challenge, hosted by the deLeuze Family Charitable Foundation and ZD Wines, is an unparalleled event in the Napa Valley, bringing together people from all over the country to join us in supporting our beneficiaries.
Experience the beauty of Napa Valley on a private cycling excursion (27- or 38-mile options) that will depart from Veterans Memorial Park in Yountville. Pass through vineyard-lined avenues, sharing the road with cycling pros and friends of Crush Challenge. Enjoy a “rest stop” at ZD Wines in Rutherford to imbibe in the barrel tasting and food bites.
Following the ride, indulge in the all-inclusive Food & Wine Marketplace with live music paired with delicious food and wine from Napa Valley restaurants and wineries to round out the afternoon.
Cheers,
Brett deLeuze
