There's a review of our 2004 Petit Verdot included over at Alan Uchrinscko's blog today. Always a great read, Alan's latest post talks about Petit Verdot's unique role in classic Bordeaux blends and many California reds.

San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition Public Tasting

I hope you have Feb 24th marked on your calendar. You won't want to miss the San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition public tasting event at Fort Mason this Saturday.

Doors open at 1pm sharp, and you won't want to miss a minute as you'll have the opportunity to taste award winning wines from the largest competition of American wines in the world--including our double gold medal winning Petit Verdot.

The event also offers a tasting of hand crafted creations from some of the world’s premier artisan food purveyors. You'll taste award winning hand crafted breads, savory meats, exotic oils, artisan cheeses, desserts, jams, sauces, and fabulous creations from Bay Area restaurants--all with spectacular views of the Golden Gate Bridge.

If you haven't already purchased your tickets, or need directions to the event, you can get all the info you need here.
