The latest people collection is incomplete. Previously confirmed people remain available with their original dates.
Desta MaréeProprietor / Wine Director
- As printed Desta Marée was born to the hospitality industry, her mother a server and her father a cook, when they met and married. Travel and experiential learning were major influences in Desta's early life, and she worked her way through college and graduate school with support from the restaurant industry — finding her way back professionally after an early career in academia. Once she and Russell met, they established an adventurous life with extensive travel through Europe. They built Meritage together, opening the doors to a fully booked opening night on November 1, 2007. After a decade in her multifaceted management of Meritage, in 2017 she took on the wine list, moved to Bordeaux and took the opportunity to educate, travel and re-inspire herself and her career. Currently, she teaches wine seminars based upon her travels and learning, and is actively developing her team with certifications, ongoing wine education, and travel to France to learn first-hand. This has developed into Maison Meritage, a destination management service that offers escorted tours through Europe which began in 2023.

Nick RanconeHospitality Manager
- As printed Nick Rancone made his name building some of the most innovative restaurant concepts the Twin Cities has seen — Corner Table, the beloved South Minneapolis gem; Revival, a series of highly regarded fried chicken restaurants; and In Bloom, an ambitious open-fire cooking project. Each left a lasting mark on the local dining scene, and Nick now brings that depth of experience to Meritage. A natural entrepreneur with excellent hospitality instincts, Nick's transition into leadership at Meritage is a natural fit — a house he can lead effectively, become part of, and whose mission in hospitality he both understands and has demonstrated throughout his entire professional career.Published by the company · confirmed Oct 11, 2026, 10:03 AM UTC

Russell KleinChef / Proprietor
- As printed Russell Klein was educated and groomed in NYC, studying under Jacques Pépin, and cutting his culinary teeth in some of the best kitchens in NYC. He also spent time learning the very French way of market shopping, cooking with the seasons, and paying homage to regional specialties while cooking in the rustic countryside of France. These culminated experiences that shaped him provide the cosmopolitan, yet traditional flare Meritage possesses. He was raised in a home that valued good cooking. His family taught him to appreciate the act of dining, making a night out of an experience at any number of the most classic NYC dining rooms; La Cirque, La Caravelle, Picholine, La Grenouille. Some of which he even spent time with as part of the brigade. This experiential passion and pursuit of knowledge has informed his travels, and his culinary interests. Together with Desta, Russell opened Meritage on November 1, 2007, and has since built it into a destination known for its professionalism and old-world appreciation — a place that can transport you to somewhere you have been, or dream of being.Published by the company · confirmed Oct 11, 2026, 10:03 AM UTC
