Join us
this
Valentine’s Day for
some extra special treatment
for your “special” someone.
On Thursday, February 14, we
will feature our
“Something
Red” tasting - a delicious
lineup of red wines,
including our award-winning
Zinfandels and Cabernet
Sauvignons. We’ll have a
long stem rose for your
sweetie as well as a
delectable pairing of
chocolate truffles with our
wines. We will also have
our digital camera on hand
to record the memory – if
you would like, we would be
glad to take your picture
and email it to you. Please
just ask one of our tasting
room associates.
We hope to see you in
romantic wine country this
Valentine’s Day! |

Proprietor Kim Stare Wallace
has (finally) taken the
plunge into the new
millennium this week by
launching a winery blog.
Her goal is to share her
life as a female vintner (in
the ever shrinking world of
family-owned wineries),
while also trying to balance
being a wife, mother, and
daughter. You can visit her
new blog at
www.wilmaswineworld.com
or by going to our web site
and clicking on winery
blog.
We encourage you to join the
conversation and post your
comments to Kim’s blog.
We’re not sure where this is
headed, but knowing Kim, it
won’t be boring! |

It’s finally here! On February 1, 2008,
the much anticipated 2006 Heritage
Zinfandel made its debut in our tasting
room. |
|
Full of juicy blackberry fruit, this
delicious wine has become one of our
best sellers. The grapes for this wine
are sourced primarily from our Dry Creek
and Russian River Valley vineyards.
This wine is an excellent combination of
warm climate grapes (Dry Creek) and
cooler climate grapes (Russian River).
The wonderful melding of flavors deliver
excellent balance and juicy characters
that express our Heritage Zinfandel’s
unique personality.
Join us in our tasting room 7 days a
week to sample this awesome new
vintage! To learn more or to order from
us online, please visit our web site and
online store. |

February is an action-packed month at Dry Creek
Vineyard. While the vineyards are taking their
winter nap, the cellar crew is running like crazy,
putting together our 2007 Chenin Blanc and 2007 Fumé
Blanc blends, and getting them ready for bottling.
|
|
Our
2007 Zinfandels are
already made and
back in barrels, and
are proving to be
fabulous wines.
Next up for our
winemakers are the
2007 Mariner,
Cabernet Sauvignon,
and Merlot blends.
These wines require
many days of
selecting varietals,
vineyard lots and
barrels, and tasting
lab blends to decide
on the ideal
combination for each
wine. We’re very
pleased with the
2007 vintage, the
latest in a string
of terrific vintages
at Dry Creek
Vineyard.

We’ll check back in a month or two and let you know
how things are progressing. |
