The RRV Pinot Noir release party was this Saturday from 1-5pm. It was a success. Martha did all the delicious food. There was toasted brie on bread, Gruyere puffs, Pate and olives.
There were a lot of local wine events going on....Periscope cellars, Urbano Cellars, Rosenblum Cellars and Dashe Cellars. At our release party, we had some media and trade friends show up along with new walkins and lots of wine club members (this was the first time they could pick up their futures).
Our wine club members have been very excited about our new Pinot Noir, Widdoes vineyard from Dutton Ranch. These grapes are in the Green Valley AVA, which is a smaller AVA in the larger RRV AVA. This wine consists of only 1 clone, the Berringer suitcase clone, also known as the Martini clone. If you haven't tried this one yet, get down to our tasting room Friday-Sunday from 1-6pm for a tasting. This Pinot Noir will go quick. We only made 350 cases!! I was pouring Widdoes Pinot Noir on Friday to some chemical sales guys and one of them described the smell of the Widdoes as the inside of a new Cadillac. I don't personally agree with his nose, but I thought it was a cool description.
