Chardonnay Week – All the Basics
Spring in Livermore Valley
This spring is so different from last year! The hills are a beautiful green, we’ve enjoyed a few summer-like days, and no one is frantically begging and pleading with the skies to bring us rain. The vineyards are coming alive as well as we see the first signs of bud break. What is bud break? It’s when the dormant bud opens and the shoot begins to grow. Essentially, it’s our first sight of this year’s crop.
Blending Old Friends with the New
There’s a new event on March 25th and 26th and I for one could not be more thrilled. Barrels, Bottles & Brews is replacing Barrel Tasting Weekend because the wineries invited some of their friends to join in the festivities. If you didn’t know, Livermore Valley has seen an influx of breweries and distilleries over the past few years and some winemakers have even tried their hand at brewing and distilling. Barrels, Bottles & Brews will be two days where you can get outside, enjoy the spring weather and sample wines, beers and spirits.
