Welcome Wine Bloggers to Calistoga

July 22, 2009

We want to welcome the second Wine Bloggers' Conference to Sonoma and Napa this weekend. We know you will have a full three days running back and forth, but if you still want to explore some of the tucked away niche wineries of northern Napa Valley on Monday, July 27th, come over and meet us at Lava Vine Winery in Calistoga.

We opened last October in a refurbished barn at 965 Silverado Trail, just outside of downtown Calistoga and produce Viognier, Chardonnay, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon. Our winemaker is Nile Zacherle, who also makes the wines for David Arthur and Montagna. We call it Lava Vine because we source our fruit from sites planted in volcanic soils. Our wines are only available via mailing list, or direct from the winery. One of your fellow wine bloggers, Doug Wilder, just reviewed all of our wines last month.


Our owner, Joe Cabral invites you to join him at Lava Vine at 11AM on July 27th for a tweetable tasting of the Lava Vine lineup. We are wireless too, so you can also blog from the picnic benches by the olive orchard.

Please tweet us @lavavine if you plan to make it.

Enjoy your visit and come share your love of wine with us and each other!

Thanks for the tasting invite. Unfortunately, my flight back to DC is Monday morning, so I'm going to have to miss this. Hopefully, I'll make it back out to CA in the not too distant future, though.
