With the beautiful, spring weather, we are starting to see bud break in Paso Robles! 🌞

During the colder winter months grapevines store water and other nutrients in their trunks in order to survive. 😴💧

The recent gradual warming temperatures trigger the vines to wake up and send these reserves to their limbs. Over time, this causes the buds to swell from the liquid released, and the hard nodes of the once sparse vines turn into soft, fuzzy buds. 🍷 🍇

Book your trip to wine country and witness the beginning of our next vintage. ✈️

We’re so excited for this tour and hope to see you there!

Cheers 🥂

Ever wanted to see winemaking in action?! 🌟

If so, this is the perfect time to plan a visit to Paso Robles 🍷🍇

You can smell fermentation in the air and may get lucky enough to see the process in action 👀

Winemakers can ferment in a variety of vessels – such as open top bins, stainless steel tanks, oak barrels, concrete or traditional amphorae!

Here Stephy at Giornata Wines unveils her Moscato still fermenting in these hand-made clay pots 🏺

Amphorae, clay vessels, have been used for winemaking for thousands of years. The ancient Greeks and Romans crafted these containers, leaving a timeless legacy 🙌🏻

Since they are porous, they allow a gentle exchange of oxygen, enhancing wine complexity, and the clay imparts unique flavors and textures, creating a truly distinctive taste profile

Join us on our Taste of Tin City Walking Tour - offered every Saturday! - to learn more about winemaking, the use of amphorae and visit unique wineries in this hip, industrial area where tradition meets innovation and every sip tells a story 🍷

Cheers to the exciting harvest season in Paso Robles! 🥂🍇

🍇 Did you know? Wine grapes are not only delicious but also fascinating!

Here are some interesting facts about them:

🌎 There are over 10,000 varieties of wine grapes worldwide, each with its unique flavor profile and characteristics.

🍷 Grapes used for wine are different from table grapes. Wine grapes have thicker skins, fewer seeds, and are much sweeter, since that sugar (measured in Brix) is what’s needed to convert to alcohol during fermentation

🎨 All color in wine comes from the skins of the grapes! Rosé and Red wine comes from red or purple grapes, and white and orange wines typically are made from green or yellow grapes (though it is possible to make a white wine from a red wine grape!) Tannin in wine also comes from the skins, though can also come from oak using during the aging process.

🙌🏻 The amount of wine you can make from one vineyard acre varies greatly depending on many factors, including farming practices, vineyard planting specifics, the variety of the grape, the age of the vine and so much more! Grape varieties such as Pinot Noir typically yield much less wine per acre than grapes such as Cabernet Sauvignon

🌱 The flavor and quality of wine grapes are heavily influenced by the climate and terroir where they are grown – which is why Paso Robles is such a great wine growing region!

We’re still in the throws of harvest, so if you want to see winemaking first hand, learn more about different grape varieties and just have a great time – book a private tour today! ✨

Looking forward to Toasting with you soon 🥂
