Last week I wrote about her newest release, our 2018 roses choice rose, and I was wondering what wine inspires me this week to share with you. The 2011 Cabernet spoke to me and I’ve been thinking what dishes I am going to make for dinner that would pair the best. Every night I try to find something to prepare that we haven’t had for a little while just so that there’s variety every day. This week, we have had potato pancakes, poached…
I knew that I wanted to write about a specific wine this week, but I didn’t know how many different things I could share about this fabulous new wine. So, next week will be about this wine but a different angle. I am sure you had enough of the suspense…. it’s the 2017 Amber Chardonnay. The style in which it is made fascinates me. Every time I share what Amber is, I reminisce to when I read my first article about…

For everyone that knows me, I love talking about Merlot. Every wine has a holiday and of course Merlot gets a whole month and a day.

I was reading an article the other day about wine blends are their origins then I came across an article about blending wine in a blender. Combining two or more wines makes each one better than they would be on their own. Sometimes wine varietals need other wines to help them have the complexity that a wine needs. Sometimes a wine can be flat and if you blend…
This past weekend, we had many people ask about Petite Sirah. Why are they spelled different? Is Petite Sirah a smaller grape, lighter on flavor? Many people had so many questions, that I thought I would elaborate about Petite Sirah. A few months ago, I mentioned a little about one of my learning experiences of wine and Petite Sirah.
Last week, was the second leg of a 6 six-city tour for the “Double Gold” medal tour with the San Francisco International Wine & Spirits Competition. Last Tuesday, I went to Manhattan to Quality Italian Steakhouse on 57th street to the “Double Gold” Tasting event. I am excited to meet the media from New York. I love to share that we are the only winery here from Los Angeles County especially because we…
