March 2019 Floods, Cheese Fest and some nice news
These current times in Sonoma County are challenging to say the least but there are bright moments and lots of hope for better days!
We have had record rains which wreaked havoc on West County. A few businesses affected and not open currently with hopes of being back up and running by May. Most everything is open and happy to see visitors from near and far!
With all this coming after a struggling economy from 2 years of fall fires.
We still have hope and some great local writers producing articles of mouth watering day trips that have included us. These put a smile on my face.

Another happy moment.... sneak peak taste of our 2018 Rose', which I am so excited about and we have a list of orders already. Cannot wait to have this bottled! Going out in the Spring Wine Club shipment.
The 12th Annual cheese Festival is always uplifting and SOLD OUT! We save this date early on to ensure our participation to pour our wines. Guests visit from all over to learn, tour and taste the great cheeses from local and not so local producers.
Evening 'Bite Competition' focuses on food bites made by chef's and cheese mongers highlighting a specific cheese. So yummy!
Wine of the week. How exciting to receive the news that our 2016 Cab Franc was a hit for the Press Democrat tasting panel and picked for this final 'wine of the week' for March.

With all this said, we are sick of the rain but Thankful for a lot. Our local support and loyal followers, and our Wine Club! April is just now here, thankfully!!!!!!
