Please join us Wednesday, March 28th, any time between 4:30-7:30pm, when we welcome the enchanting sisters, Carmen and Eva Dehlinger to our wine bar. Carmen is the Director of Sales & Marketing and Eva is the General Manager of Dehlinger Winery. They will present a delicious flight featuring their prized Russian River Valley Pinot Noir, along with the new vintage of their Pinot Noir Rosé.

Dehlinger was founded in 1975 when Tom Dehlinger and his architect brother, Dan built a small winery on an old apple orchard at Vine Hill Road outside Sebastopol in the heart of the Russian River Valley. Only 28 years old at the time, Tom was an early pioneer in bringing winegrowing back to Sonoma County since its decline after Prohibition. It turned out he was wise beyond his years given that Russian River Valley is one of the greatest growing regions in the world for Burgundian varieties specifically. He planted 15 acres of vines and met his wife, Carole, with whom he started a family. It might be hard to imagine now but that was during an era when there weren’t many resources, proper equipment or viticultural know-how, so it took a lot of hard work and trial and error on the Dehlingers’ part to create what is now regarded as one of the finest estates, not just in Russian River Valley, but in California.

Today, it is the second generation of Dehlingers: daughters, Carmen and Eva who are helping to run things and who have worked alongside their parents to manage the gradual expansion of the vineyard to its 45 acre size. They grow primarily Pinot Noir and Chardonnay as well as 4.5 acres of Cabernet Sauvignon and 3 acres of Syrah however they are most famous for their wonderful Burgundian varietal wines. In addition to the regular estate wines, they also produce ‘Altamont’ and ‘Goldridge’ bottlings of Pinot Noir and Syrah to pay homage to the distinctiveness of each soil type in their vineyard.
