We enjoyed another great Rhone Rangers San Francisco Tasting June 10 at the Golden Gate Club Presidio. We enjoyed taking with sustainable and biodynamic winemakers including Tara Gomez (KITA), Lise and Vincent Ciolino (Montemaggiore), and representatives from Beckmen Vineyards, Bonny Doon, and Miner.
See the Pictures below and Watch the video of Tara Gomez, Winemaker from KITA. "KITA means "Our Valley Oak" in the Santa Ynez Chumash native language of Samala. The Chumash believe the valley Oak is a true gift from our Creator, a tree that provides not only strength but also nourishment to the people. Like the valley Oak, our wine highlights the gifts from Mother Earth, and embodies the soil, Climate, flavors, and spirit of the Santa Ynez Valley." The KITA 2014 SPE'Y Red Wine is 55% Grenache, 25% Syrah, 20% Carignane. All of the wines have been harvested by hand. Grateful to have been invited to a prescreening of An Inconvenient Sequel - Truth to Power last night in San Francisco. We also met Director John Shea. The official Movie Site is here, and in theaters July 28 https://inconvenientsequel.tumblr.com/ Due to the very unfortunate news of Trump withdrawing the U..S. from the Paris Climate Agreement, Paramount Pictures decided to have a pre-release showing to Al Gore Climate Reality Trainees.
