The new vintages of our site-driven wines are released for the summer, and our team has been cooking up summer recipes to pair with these new beauties!
Things are starting to get busy again. The barrels have all been tasted and put into one of the 12 different wines we will bottle this summer, we began racking last week, and our cellar interns are all ready for the coming harvest season!
Zach’s first introduction to the culture of wine was an exchange trip to Alsace, France. Turns out it was the first step on the path to being here at Emeritus Vineyards for our 2022 harvest!
With summer upon us, the vineyard crew is working as fast as possible to keep up with our growing vines. The main task on their plate right now is leafing—going vine by vine and selectively removing leaves.
With 4th of July around the corner and the warm summer nights letting us enjoy evenings outside, we wanted to share our favorite wines to enjoy this season of Reds, Whites, & BBQ.
Before coming to Sonoma County, Marc Goldman spent almost 45 years in the legal profession. Now a resident of Sebastopol, he always marveled at the beauty of Hallberg Ranch when driving past, so when a position opened at Emeritus he eagerly applied and has since become a valuable member of the team!
While finalizing our wines, our winemaking team tastes every barrel multiple times. Here’s a video of our winemaker, David Lattin, about the importance of topping off the barrels afterward!
Long before moving to Sonoma County from Southern California, Marc Goldberg regularly visited Armstrong Woods on his annual wine-tasting trip to Northern California. Now that he lives here and works in our tasting room, we’ve asked him to share some of his thoughts on this magical place.
From May through November, this coastal fog sweeps through this area regularly, over both our Hallberg Ranch and Pinot Hill vineyards, at the same time of year our Pinot grapes are growing and ripening.
While spring growth is underway in the vineyard, the 2021 vintage is really coming to fruition in our cellar. This week David and Keith dig into the 2021 Hallberg Ranch!
Kelly made her way to the Emeritus tasting room in 2017, and has grown into the position of spearheading our online phone sales. If you’ve placed an order over the phone, chances are it was with her!
