Wine Adventure

We just got back from an overnight trip up to Amador County where we helped our good friends and clients bottle the barrel of wine they made. It was all done at Amador Cellars where the owner winemaker, Larry, makes wonderful wine and went out of his way to make all of us feel like we were part of the winery family.
Although it was work, we had a blast bottling, corking, capping and labeling the wine. Best of all the wine, a 2006 Zinfandel, is excellent and has the potential to get even better. Joe and Erin joined what is called Amador Cellar’s Crush Club and this was their weekend to bottle the wine they made.
I am thinking about doing the same thing for some of my clients and referral sources. Think of the fun we could have over the 18 months from selecting the grapes to bottling.
We got 24 cases of “Old Gold Hill” and would have had 25 had we not liberally tasted during the day….we had 16 people on the bottling crew!
Thanks Joe and Erin, we had a great time and see a future for us in wine making, err or maybe wine drinking.
