California’s Founding Fathers of Burgundy

We get the question at least three times a week "Do you guys carry Pinot Noir from Siduri, Flowers or Kistler?"  The answer is always the same.  "We do.  But the allocations are so slim that the wines disappear before they even arrive." 

If you find yourself asking that very question, Wednesday night's tasting is for you!  David Hirsch, Kent Rasmussen and the McCrea family have been supplying the best Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes to some of California's most sought after labels.  On Wednesday, we'll pour their own efforts including the 2006 Stony Hill Chardonnay which Winemaker Mike Chelini says, "Not that we haven't made serious wine before, but this is a really serious wine!"   And he ought to know having made the wines at Stony Hill for the past thirty-six years.

Join the staff of Nicholas Roberts as we welcome Peter Slywka and Brian Sypher of Michael Skurnik wines to show off these four gorgeous wines.
