Harvest is over.

This week we pressed the last wine that we harvested, zinfandel. It's strange but the first grapes we picked this year were Zinfandel and the last grapes we picked were Zinfandel. We will have some nice 2008 Zinfandel.

Last weekend we had a great winemaker dinner at Zachary Jacques with most of the attendees were club members. Because we had a grand child due in the later part of July Barbara did not schedule a dinner on the lawn as we usually do but I think I enjoyed the one at Zachary Jacques as much if not more. It was more intimate and Barbara did not have to work as hard to make the event a success. The Food was great.

In the coming weeks we will have two events, one in Roseville and one at the winery. The first is
Wine tasting at the Basic Urban Kitchen
Come taste 5 Sierra Vista wines and try them with the best New Haven, Connecticut thin crust brick oven pizzas outside Connecticut. Sierra Vista will be pouring Chardonnay, Fume Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Zinfandel.

As I have said before:The following I will be including on every blog I post. This is because I hope you will forward our blog address to all your email friends and you never know who might be able to help Sierra Vista. One thing I would like to hear about is when you drink a bottle of Sierra Vista wine that you really enjoy and why you liked it. I would also like to hear about what food you had it with or if you drank it without eating.
Another thing is, as I mentioned in the previous post and will include in all future posts, is if any of you know a small wine distributor in any state, please let me know so I can contact them about carrying our wine. If you don't know any distributors you might ask at your favorite wine shop for the names of several small distributors and include them in your comment on this blog. I would appreciate it very much. If you do not want to comment on this blog you could email me at syrah@sierravistawinery.com Until next week that is allJohn MacCreadyowner & winemakerSierra Vista Winery
