Join us for another fantastic Winter

Wine Tour!

This tour visits 3 of the top wineries in the

Gilroy area. Enjoy a picnic lunch, a VIP winery tour, upgraded tastings,

and very special purchase discounts, plus your own expert tour guide

will host the tour.

Our first stop is Clos LaChance Winery, a beautiful

Tuscan-style winery with outdoor terraces and hillside views in

San Martin, CA (near Morgan Hill). Take the Vineyard to Bottle Tour,

a fun & informative tour of the vineyard and winery, guided

by a trained Sommelier. You’ll enjoy VIP access of their state-of-the-art

production facility, while you taste award-winning wines. Then it's

time for a gourmet picnic - our California Picnic Buffet, served

in the Mulberry Grove. (outdoors, weather permitting)


Second Stop: Kirigin Cellars

Style: Historic winery with acres of vineyards framed by rolling

hills

What: Enjoy a tasting and history talk, plus time to relax &

enjoy the scenery. Kirigin specializes

in estate-grown wines, such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir,

along with unusual varieties such as Malvasia Bianca - they also

make their own chocolate dessert wine and a very special red wine

vinegar aged in oak barrels. Kirigin will offer the group special

discounts on wine purchases.


Third stop: Sarah’s Vineyard, an up-and-coming Gilroy winery

with estate vineyards that overlook acres of flower gardens, framed

by rolling hills. Sarah's makes a nice variety of wines including

Chardonnay, Zinfandel, and some Rhone varietals, too. Special bonus:

Winemaker Ken Hanson will be there to meet the group and answer

questions. Enjoy a full tasting of Sarah's latest offerings!
