We hope
you’ll join us once again for our annual public preview of the white wines from
the 2012 vintage. Last year’s harvest provided us with outstanding fruit, and
the wines tasted at this point rank as some of our best ever. The visionary
idea of offering barrel tastings to the public began years ago by winery
founders Bob and Marge McGregor— Bob led small groups of people through a tasting
of samples right out of our barrels and tanks and Marge prepared a delicious
assortment of hors d’oeuvres for people to enjoy after the wine tasting. The
scope of these tastings has grown tremendously over the years and we really
enjoy continuing this tradition. Not only are these tastings fun and
educational, they also give you the opportunity to stock up on the wines you
enjoy at a very nice discount— 30% for Clan Club members and 25% for
non-members. When the wines are bottled and ready for delivery or pick-up (this
ranges from a month or two to over one year later depending on the wine) we
contact everyone who purchased the futures and they’re the first people who
enjoy them!
