Get Social! #SonomaWineCountryWeekend Welcome from the Presidents Welcome to the 2016 Sonoma Harvest Wine Auction It is our great pleasure to welcome you into the heart of our community as we travel “From Sonoma to Marrakesh” for a sublime celebration of Sonoma’s world-class wine region. Our vintners and winegrowers, who embody the generous spirit and convivial hospitality that Sonoma County is known for, are eager to share the sensory wonders of our world-class wine and cuisine as we make a difference in the future of Sonoma County. Named one of the top three U.S. Charity Wine Auctions by Wine Spectator, the Sonoma Harvest Wine Auction, sponsored by TricorBraun WinePak, is co-chaired by three individuals who demonstrate community leadership, dedication to innovation and a commitment to helping others. They carry forth a long-standing tradition of neighbors and friends working together to contribute to the continuous betterment of our vibrant community. As a result of your kind generosity, the Sonoma Harvest Wine Auction has distributed more than $20 million to local non-profits over the years. These funds have been used to enrich lives and support local children and families through literacy and health and wellness programs, providing a foundation for the future leaders of Sonoma County. We are particularly focused on our Fund the Future initiative—a multi-year commitment to improving children’s literacy across Sonoma County. There is no issue more central to the long term well-being of our communities than that of early childhood education. Our Fund the Future program will benefit many outstanding programs in 2016, including: Schools of Hope (United Way of the Wine Country), Pasitos Playgroups & AVANCE (Community Action Partnership), Accelerated English program (Healdsburg Education Foundation), Project Learn (Boys & Girls Club of Sonoma Valley) and Summer Reading and Writing Academy & Grade Level Proficiency Project (Sonoma Valley Education Foundation).

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: David Wells [email protected] 443-299-9894 Lloyd Davis to open Corner 103 as a unique wine tasting experience High-end, seated, educational tastings coming to Sonoma Plaza starting April 20 SONOMA – Former owner of Viansa Winery, Lloyd Davis, plans to open Corner 103, a Sonoma Tasting Experience, located at 103 West Napa Street, Sonoma California on April 20, 2015. Over a year since selling Viansa, Lloyd has decided to start his own wine brand and open a tasting room on the historic Sonoma Plaza. Lloyd took control of Viansa Winery in 2008 and is credited with its successful operational and financial turnaround. During his leadership, Viansa wines won over 400 wine competition medals, many for “Best in Class.” Viansa became known as a “must visit” when coming to Sonoma wine country. Turning his eyes to building his own wine brand from the ground up and recognizing that most people are intimidated by wine, Lloyd is establishing Corner 103, which draws its name from the location and address of the tasting room. Corner 103 is all about creating a unique experience where wine is explored and discussed in a relaxed and fun environment. Guests will taste seven wines in a seated environment designed for wine tasting. There will be no more than 10 guests at a time. Each limited production wine will come from a different AVA of Sonoma County that showcases the varietal as well as the AVA. There will be a Rose Sparkling wine from Carneros, a Chardonnay from Sonoma Coast, a Pinot Noir from Russian River Valley, a Merlot from Alexander Valley, a Red Blend from various Sonoma AVA’s, a Zinfandel from Dry Creek Valley, a Cabernet Sauvignon form Sonoma Valley, and a Petit Verdot (wine club exclusive) from Rockpile.

  • Buena Vista Sonoma Chard 11
    sonoma 2011 Chardonnay ith its roots so deeply ensconced in Wthe foundations of Sonoma where it was established in 1857, Buena Vista Winery is again introducing wines from Sonoma. The Sonoma wines include a diverse array of varietals that celebrate the diversity of Sonoma’s terroir and the contribution of Buena Vista to establishing the California wine world. The 2011 Buena Vista Winery Sonoma Chardonnay comes from some of the finest vineyards in Sonoma. The diversity of Sonoma County’s landscape is what makes it so perfect for grape growing. The strong maritime influence results in cool nights, and days that rarely get too hot, contributing to layers of oceanic fog that creep into Sonoma’s interior valleys. The 2011 growing season experienced cooler than normal temperatures, allowing for slow and even ripening . This resulted in gradual development on the vine, leading to intense, concentrated flavors. This 2011 Sonoma Chardonnay is a medium-bodied wine with aromas of apple and pear and some toasted almond nuances. These flavors carry over to the palate with the addition of honeycomb on the tongue and subtle creaminess. It strikes the perfect balance of acidity and structure, making it the ideal companion to many of your favorite dishes.

    sonoma 2013 the count Founder's Red Wine he winery’s colorful founder, The Count of Buena TVista, pioneered premium winemaking in California. A tireless and passionate devotee of California wine, The Count imported hundreds of premium vines from Europe, dug Sonoma’s first wine caves, introduced innovative viticulture techniques, and wrote the first treatise on California wine. Buena Vista Winery honors his legacy, bold vision, and commit- ment to excellence through this red wine – the Founder’s Red Wine. From prestigious vineyards across Sonoma, The Count’s intrigu- ing blend of varietals intermingle seamlessly to produce an elegant and complex wine. Individual lots were fermented separately in open and closed-top fermenters and aged for 11 months in Hungarian, French and American oak barrels before final assemblage and bottling. Our 2013 vintage of The Count - Founder’s Red Wine offers seductively teasing aromas of rich dark chocolate, nutmeg and a subtle hint of cinnamon. Dark fruit flavors swathe the palate of this nicely structured, well-balanced wine that culminates in a long, dense finish that sails on and on. This immedi- ately enjoyable wine will continue to evolve in the bottle over the next two to three years. Try it alongside barbequed beef or country-style pork ribs.
