Who knows what Crljenak Kaštelanski means? It’s National Wine Day and today we are celebrating Amador County Zinfandel! Zin is one of the more widely grown grapes in the Sierra Foothills region, chiefly because of how well the grape does in the area’s climate. Shallow granite topsoil, combined with hot days and cool evenings allow the grape to thrive!! Thank you to our beautiful earth for giving us Zin. #nationalwineday #internationalwineday #amadorcounty #eldoradocounty #amadorwine #amadorzinfandel #zinfandel #californiawine

Come see the superbloom in Amador Wine Country! Because of all of the rain we’ve had, wildflower seeds that usually remain dry and dormant have received the nutrients to bloom. Swaths of California are awash in vibrant colors as wildflowers have erupted from the earth.

We are so lucky that the Middle Fork of the Cosumnes river runs through our vineyards. It’s impossible for me to drive over this bridge without stopping. Uni and I spend a lot of time here, watching the water level rise.
The Cosumnes River is one of the last un-dammed rivers in California. As one of the last rivers flowing from the west slope of the Sierra without a major dam, the Cosumnes is a vital example of a healthy watershed. This season, water levels have been at an all time high. I do hope the river rushes through summer so we can swim here.

Why do we swirl our 🍷 ? Because Devo says we must whip it. Whip it good.

Looking out the window at our vineyards…
The Snow
by Emily Dickinson

It sifts from leaden sieves,
It powders all the wood,
It fills with alabaster wool
The wrinkles of the road.
It makes an even face
Of mountain and of plain, —
Unbroken forehead from the east
Unto the east again.
It reaches to the fence,
It wraps it, rail by rail,
Till it is lost in fleeces;
It flings a crystal veil
On stump and stack and stem, —
The summer’s empty room,
Acres of seams where harvests were,
Recordless, but for them.
It ruffles wrists of posts,
As ankles of a queen, —
Then stills its artisans like ghosts,
Denying they have been.

Can winemaker Chaim Gur-Arieh (aka my dad) open a bottle using the wall & a shoe? Taking bets. He’s going to try it with me this Sunday at the tasting room. Dad thinks it’s fake and won’t work.
What do you think?

Char siu bao, pronounced chāshāo bāo or chā sīu bāau, is a Cantonese barbecue-pork-filled baozi (bun). The buns are filled with barbecue-flavored cha siu pork. They are served as a type of dim sum during yum cha and are sometimes sold in Chinese bakeries. Cha siu refers to the pork filling; the word bao means “bun”. What do we pair it with?
Zinfandel’s classic peppery aromas and flavors pair well with the smoky, peppery characteristic of BBQ sauce.
Being a heartier varietal that tends to exhibit a high alcohol content (usually 14-16%), Zinfandel loves meat. You don’t have to worry about the wine being overpowered by the food of vice versa.
The ripe fruit flavors in Zinfandel complement the tangy, sweet and savory flavors of BBQ sauce.
