Annual Holiday Open House at Dry Creek Vineyard

Saturday, November 28, 2009

Our 2009 annual Holiday Open House was truly our best yet.  Over 400 guests from as far away as North Carolina joined us for a memorable afternoon of wine tasting, food, shopping and camaraderie in our cellar and tasting room.

 

This year, the theme was “Wine Country Rustic.”  In the cellar, guests tasted several terrific age-worthy wines including our estate Fumé Blanc DCV3 and premier blend, The Mariner. Everyone enjoyed the delicious appetizers of country pate, Pt. Reyes blue tartlets, and stuffed mushrooms.  Wine club members were treated to a special “Club only” lounge area, where a wonderful charcuterie plate was enjoyed along with club member wines.  Kids were also able to enjoy the atmosphere with an arts and crafts table and warm apple cider.

The entire experience was highlighted by the Sonoma County Bach Society, who shared the wonderful sounds of the holidays with all of our guests.

In the end, the day was filled with terrific memories for all who attended.  As always, we truly appreciate everyone who joined us and encourage our friends, club members and fans to mark your calendars for next year – November 27, 2010.
