In addition to The Rutledge restaurants located in Franklin, TN and Downtown Nashville, Revelette will be available at ARDOR at the West Hollywood Edition, EDGE Restaurant at Four Seasons Hotel Denver and Truss at Four Seasons Hotel Napa Valley.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – September 23, 2022 – (Newswire.com)
Nashville-based restauranters, Mason and Curt Revelette have launched their own private label wine named “Revelette.” With the growth and development of the Revelettes’ second restaurant concept, The Rutledge, Mason Revelette saw the modern American dining experience as the perfect outlet for a private wine label. The Rutledge offers a wide variety of fine wines from around the world; however, the offerings favor Napa Valley.
With the experience of crafting wine lists for both Rutledge locations, Mason knew the exact wines he wanted to create. During the long weeks of COVID shutdowns, Mason’s entrepreneurial instincts did not rest. It was then that he began to craft his wine brand, Revelette.
Mason, alongside fellow entrepreneur Kathryn Byrd, used their passions for wine and business acumen to create what Mason envisioned. As a licensed attorney, Kathryn utilized her knowledge of alcoholic beverage laws to navigate the licensing and compliance aspects of the wine business, while Mason used his refined palate and knowledge of the hospitality business to create wines of exceptional quality with modern, yet timelessly sleek, branding.
Revelette’s approach to procuring exceptional wines is simple – source the best grapes and blend with intention. With a love for Cabernet Sauvignon, Revelette Wines sources its fruit for Cabernet Sauvignon from the widely recognized viticultural region of Napa Valley – Rutherford. But Cabernet Sauvignon is just one of the wines Revelette offers. The Revelette Red Blend is a unique blend that breaks the mold of a typical Bordeaux styling. It is comprised of predominately Petit Verdot, making the body of the wine familiar to the pallet of Cabernet Sauvignon drinkers and approachable for Pinot Noir drinkers.
In March 2022, Revelette 2017 Red Proprietary Blend and Revelette 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon hit the on-premises market at The Rutledge in Franklin, TN, and then the concept’s Downtown Nashville location in June 2022. Both wines quickly started out performing sales of other iconic Napa Valley wines. Initially, the plan was to only sell Revelette at The Rutledge restaurants. After gaining the attention of Amy Racine, beverage director for JF Restaurants, Revelette Wines earned opportunity for placements outside of the Revelettes’ restaurants. What started as an entrepreneurial passion project quickly shifted into a legitimate business.
After being in the business just short of a year, the Revelettes are thrilled to announce their wines will be available at ARDOR at the West Hollywood Edition, EDGE Restaurant at Four Seasons Hotel Denver and Truss at Four Seasons Hotel Napa Valley. Mason and Kathryn continue to travel and expand the brand into different markets including Las Vegas, Miami, New York City and more.
Revelette is available for purchase online at revelettewines.com.

CMG Financial’s Dave Herbst, VP, All In One Loan Finance, was honored as a 2022 HousingWire Insider. “The [HousingWire] Insiders award spotlights the industry professionals who are essential to the performance and success of their organizations,” writes Lesley Collins, Program Manager for HousingWire’s Editor’s Choice Awards. Dave was recognized for his incomparable contributions to the growth of the All In One Loan™ and his dedication to educating industry professionals, borrowers, real estate agents and fiduciaries on the impact the mortgage has and the need for this type of innovation.
A key difference separating CMG Financial from other lenders is our proprietary products like the All In One Loan – a unique line of credit with integrated banking that helps borrowers shrink the size and cost of their mortgage faster and safely, with no change in their budget and without relying on favorable interest rate cycles. In fact, the All In One Loan has helped countless homeowners pay off their mortgage early and save tens of thousands of dollars in interest.
Dave, a company veteran of 19 years, took the helm of managing the All In One Loan in 2018. At the time, it accounted for $20 million in monthly production. With Dave’s expansion and development efforts, the All In One Loan now achieves well north of $100 million in monthly funding activity and is on pace to have its biggest year in 2022 since the program’s inception in 2005.
Recently, Dave also headed the creation and newly launched All In One Loan product designed specifically for Texas Homestead property borrowers. Now, borrowers in Texas can use the All In One Loan to finance their primary, second and investment homes – mirroring how owners and buyers can benefit from the loan in all other states across the U.S.
“As Vice President of All In One Loan finance at CMG Financial, Dave Herbst is an invaluable team member,” writes Collins. “Without Herbst, this growth would not have been possible.”
While interest rates have the greatest influence over production for most lenders, Dave and CMG Financial seem to be several steps ahead of the game, keying into the concerns of ordinary Americans that often extend well beyond their mortgage. CMG and its partners are uniquely positioned to help, especially in today’s environment. In Dave’s own words, “the All In One Loan is not just another mortgage, but a solution to the mortgage itself. It has the power to improve the financial health of a nation one household at a time.”
“It’s clear that this year’s winners are driving big growth within their organizations and have the metrics to back their successes,” writes Collins. “Congratulations to the 2022 HW Insiders!”
