Jumping into the weekend like…

WINE BLOGGER OF THE MONTH: We love our local wine bloggers here in California Wine Country, and we were so happy to have a visit from Ashley, aka @redswineadventure last month. Ashley has the lofty goal of visiting EVERY Winery in Sonoma County, and she’s well on her way with over 100 visits so far. We love following her on Instagram to get ideas for more places to visit in this beautiful part of the world. THANK YOU Ashley for your commitment to our winery and this wonderful business!
Grateful for this guest review of the Gracianna tasting room experience: “This wonderful winery offered us a private tour by the owners of the grounds and the house. For the pricing, you’ll be hard to find a better deal with the time, quality, and effort you’re given. I’d absolutely recommend visiting Gracianna!”

Sun is out, chardonnay is on ice. Who’s coming out to see us this weekend?
We make our wine at an offsite winery, and we spend a lot of time there checking on our wine in the barrels and keeping an eye on the bottling and labeling process. Once it a while we do a little barrel tasting to see how things are coming along.
Take a look at this new guest review for our Winery Loft, available on Airbnb: “Wow! This may be one of my favorite places that we have ever stayed at. The location is amazing and you can walk through the vineyards in the morning and it is so peaceful. The loft is extremely spacious, comfortable, and decorated beautifully. More importantly, the hosts and the team at Gracianna are very gracious, kind, and communicative. Their wine is outstanding and they were happy to host and talk to our friends who visited for wine tasting as well (we were there for a wedding nearby). Highly recommend!”
Vino for breakfast? Don’t mind if we do.
Lately, we’ve been doing some leafing on our Mercedes Riverblock Pinot Noir vines- our team trims off the leaves and vines on the side that faces the morning sun, to let the light filter through. The leaves are left in place on the side that gets afternoon sun to protect the grapes from the intense heat. It’s all about growing the best possible fruit that requires minimal intervention to make brilliant wine!
The sun’s out and so are we. Dancing into June over #MercedesRiverblockVineyard on the #MiracleMile with grateful hearts!
