“Borjon is an interesting story. The gal the runs this brand literally grew up in the industry. While that is a common story for winemakers and children of owners, Borjon’s owner is not only female but her father was a vineyard worker. That story is not all that common even though the CA wine industry rests solely on the backs of the Latin X community. Borjon has a great southwestern feel despite being smack dab in the middle of Amador. Check the weather before you go because most tastings are held outside. That could be a wonderful thing and that could make for an uncomfortable day if you are not prepared.”
