One of the most
popular features in The Grapevine newsletter that’s published for members of
the wine clubs of Vinesse is called “Wineries of Distinction.”
In each issue, we
take you to one of the world’s most respected wine estates, share some of its
history, and explain what makes it so special.
All this week on
VinesseTODAY.com, we’ll be taking you on armchair trips to some of these
estates – from
Sonoma
County to the Santa Ynez Valley, from
Napa
Valley
to
Madera
County,
and even to
Argentina’s
acclaimed growing region of
Tupungato.
You’ll read about
winemaking pioneers, a Sauvignon Blanc specialist who also crafts a mighty fine
Cabernet Sauvignon, the difference between winemaking and “winegrowing,” a Port
specialist in California, and more.
I’ve often said
that, “Every wine has a story.” By extension, so does every winery. Every day
this week, we’ll share the stories of some of the best wineries on Earth.
