In 1893, an undertaker was hired to relocate thousands of graves out of the city's original cemetery. He was paid by the coffin. What followed was one of Denver's strangest and darkest scandals, and many graves were never relocated, leaving an unknown number of people still buried beneath the park today.Join Bespoke Wine Journeys for an evening built around that history, equal parts historical reckoning and gothic celebration.Event DetailsEvent: The City Beneath: A Toast to the Ones Left BehindDate: October 21, 2026Time: 6:00–9:30 PMLocation: Beginning at Cheesman Park, then continuing at a nearby historic Denver venueHosted by: Molly Montgomery, Bespoke Wine JourneysFeaturing: Phil Goodstein, Dylan Burr, The Terrorium Shop, guided wine, light bites, and curated take-home keepsakesThis is a small-capacity event and every element, from the historian to the photographer to the wine, has been chosen deliberately.Your HostMolly Montgomery is the founder of Bespoke Wine Journeys, a Denver-based wine events company built on the belief that a wine night should be an experience, not just a pour.With more than 20 years in hospitality, including experience in James Beard Award-winning restaurants, Molly brings a professional hospitality background and a storyteller's instinct to every event she designs.
