Dear |
|
| |
|
With the vines peacefully resting after a
busy harvest season, we turned our attention
to the skies in hopes of some much needed
rain. Instead, in January we had an Indian
summer. Not good. Thankfully, as February
arrived, Mother Nature once again turned on
the spigot with a series of storms that have
helped to add to our rain totals. And while
we haven't caught up yet, we are hopeful
that with the storm door open, more rain is
on the way.
We have a
series of fun events and tastings happening
this spring and summer. Please read on for
more details. We look forward to seeing
you! |

Barrel Tasting Weekends |
 |
|
|
|
|
As a
member of the
Russian River Wine Road, we have joined
forces with more than 100 wineries for two
exciting weekends of wine tasting.
This is your chance to sample wines from the
barrel, talk to winemakers and explore the
beautiful Alexander, Dry Creek, and Russian
River Valleys.
Barrel Tasting is not a food or
themed event. It's all about the
WINE.
|
|
Here at Dry Creek, we've got two
fantastic barrel samples to share - 2007 Old Vine Zinfandel and
2007 Mariner. In addition, our
incredible hospitality staff will
have a few "extras" that make our
winery a must stop during the
weekend. Join us for not one, but two
terrific weekends of barrel tasting fun! |
|
|
|
|
|
March 7-8 and 14-15, 2009
11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. |
|
To taste at any of the participating
wineries, you will need to purchase the
Barrel Tasting wristband and glass.
Tickets at the door will
be $30 per person. |
