Thursday: Meet DeLoach Vineyards Winemaker
Thursday, Jan. 23, 5:30-7:30 p.m., $10 pp includes light bites
Come on in, drink wine and meet Katie Carter, a winemaker on the successful and highly acclaimed team at DeLoach Vineyards.
 As a pioneering producer and winegrower of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Zinfandel in Sonoma’s Russian River Valley, DeLoach Vineyards has been experimenting with and perfecting the best combinations of soil, rootstock and clones for over three decades.
In 2003, the Boisset family brought two generations of sustainable winemaking experience from Burgundy, France to California’s Russian River Valley and pulled up the estate vineyards that had just produced Wine Enthusiast magazine’s 2004 wine of the year: DeLoach Vineyards’ 30th Anniversary Cuvée Pinot Noir.
The award-winning vineyards were replanted with cover crops in order to revitalize the soil and in the meantime, DeLoach partnered with winegrowers equally dedicated to and passionate about eco-friendly farming practices and the production of high-quality wines. Wine & Spirits magazine named DeLoach Vineyards a Top 100 Winery for the twelfth time in the winery’s history in 2012.

Saturday: We Say 'Pinot,' You Will Too!
Saturday, Jan. 25, 4-6 p.m., $10 pp includes light bites
It not enough to simply say “Pinot.”
 The world of grapes that begin with the word “Pinot” traverses a huge range of varietal character, color and body. Pinot comes from the French word for "pine cone,” and refers to the tightly bunched, conical shape of Pinot clusters. The word following refers to the wine color: Noir, Grigio and Blanc, respectively, black, gray and white.
Saturday, we will take you on a tour of some of our favorite “Pinot.” From easy and accessible Pinot Grigio to wine’s prettiest Pinot (in our opinion), Pinot Noir. Lastly, sip Pinot Noir’s cousin – the tiny Pinot Meunier grape.
Don your safari togs and come on out -- let’s explore Pinot with the following wines:
2012 Ca di Ponti Pinot Grigio
2012 Raptor Ridge Pinot Gris
2011 Zind Humbrecht Pinot Blanc
2009 Henry Natter Sancerre Rouge
2012 Chime Pinot Noir
2011 Bouchaine Pinot Meunier
