Estate Vineyard Tour & Lunch — Saturday, July 18
Join us for our second vineyard lunch and tour. We'll be pouring our award-winning Pinots and our Pinot Rosé, paired with seasonal fare including strawberries and salmon prepared by our friend, wine lover and talented chef Paul Parenteau.
The June tour was a delicious and edifying success. Vineyard manager Dustin Miller showed us the rapid growth of the vines and pre-bloom clusters. See pictures of the event.
This time we'll see the maturing fruit as it heads for veraison and learn how the vines have been trimmed and trained. Owner/winemaker Dave Grooters and vineyard manager Dustin Miller will explain what all the lingo means while you sip wine and take in the beautiful views from our idyllic Savannah Ridge wine country.
