Scratch
"Scratch is a project of Winemaker Sabrine Rodems producing small-lot Riesling, Grenache, Pinot Noir and Cabernet from Monterey, Arroyo Seco, Santa Lucia Highlands and Santa Cruz Mountains AVA's."
McConnell Estates
"The house Thaddeus built in the mid-1800’s was lived in by family members for more than 100 years, until the late 1970’s. For a brief period, it was used to store the many antiques that had been passed down over the generations. It was also a favorite location for family Halloween Parties. In 2003, the family decided to give the beautiful and historic house a new life as the current office for Wackman Ranch and the Tasting Room and Barrel Cellar for McConnell Estates Winery."
Thacher Winery
"The “KR” on our barn is a well-known landmark of old time Paso Robles. The Kentucky Ranch- our home, winery, vineyard and gardens was part of a 4,000 acre Spanish Land Grant until 1869 after which it became a thriving horse breeding operation."
Van Ruiten
"The Van Ruiten Family Winery is located in Lodi, California, mid-way between the Sierra Foothills and the San Francisco Bay. The estate vineyards, including the infamous Lodi Zinfandel, benefit from the ideal climate influenced by the cool afternoon breezes of the San Joaquin Delta."
Au Bon Climat
"Open since 2011, our tasting room in downtown Santa Barbara offers current releases and select library wines in a warm and casual setting. The wines of Au Bon Climat, Clendenen Family Vineyard, Ici/La-Bas, Barham Mendelsohn, Vita Nova, and Jim Clendenen’s other creative endeavors are featured, representing an array of varietals (16!) beyond Chardonnay and Pinot Noir."
Belledor
"Belledor Vineyards, located in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley, produces estate grown Italian, Spanish and French varietals. Founded in 2015, the history of Belledor’s land dates back to the 1850s amid the Gold Rush era. As European immigrants flocked to Amador for gold, family-owned wineries began to spring up. Today, Belledor continues the tradition of a family vineyard, creating small-batch wines that offer a distinct sense of place and embrace the history of Amador."
