New 'MotoDoffo' Temecula Wine Inspired By Women From 'Start To Finish'

TEMECULA, CA — Temecula's family-owned Doffo Winery and their new MotoDoffo label is celebrating female motorcycle riders with their new Gran Bianco release. The 2022 MotoDoffo Gran Bianco is a nod to the Doffo sisters, Samantha and Brigitte, and their passion for motorcycle riding and racing.

Doffo winemaker Nadia Urquidez spoke on the new release as "female-inspired from start to finish."

The Gran Bianco is a blend of Viognier and Vermentino varietals, according to Urquidez.

"The wine is an invigorating rush of fragrant tropical fruits and flowers, balanced by tangy citrus," she said. And that's just inside the bottle.

The label is also a nod to women motorcycle riders.

Photographer Sara Liberte was hired to shoot rider Karlee Cobb as she rode an Indian Scout across the South Dakota countryside.

Cobb is the youngest racer to ever set a record on the Bonneville Salt Flats and is a member of the Klock Werks Kustom Cycles team based out of Mitchell, South Dakota.

Samantha Doffo spoke on the wine, the label, and being at Sturgis during its release.

"It has been incredibly inspiring to be here at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and interact with and ride alongside so many amazing women," she said. "It has been very special to share a wine featuring an image of a powerful woman taken by a talented female photographer, and we've gotten a lot of great feedback from people at the rally."
