A Glimpse at Popular Wine Makers
For centuries now, vintners and great wine makers have been tirelessly fermenting grapes, other fruits and flowers to produce the wine that is served at feasts, parties and dinner tables. Cultivating an appreciation of wine is a growing trend in the US. Shops specializing in wine are appearing throughout the country, not just in the traditional vineyard regions of California, Oregon, and Virginia. People who may not have grown up around wine are now drawn not only to sampling but also to collecting it. Tasting parties and special wine pairing events are a common theme in restaurants and in the home. With this comes an increase in interest in home storage. While proper storage can help wines become even more exquisite, improper storage can lead to ruined wine.
There are thousands of varieties or types of wine to choose from. White, sparkling, red or rose wine are just some of the ?colors? that you can choose from.
Wine making is a very lucrative venture because there is a worldwide market. France, Italy, Australia, Spain, Chile and the United States have their share of the worldwide market and are the leading countries which export and produce wine.
Meanwhile, South Africa, Argentina, Portugal and Germany aren't far behind.
California is the state which boasts the most of wine producers in the US. Vineyards are mostly found in Sonoma Valley, Monterey, Paso Robles, Santa Ynez and Napa Valley.
Here are just some of the popular wine makers in the country:
1. Greenvale Vineyards & Winery
This vineyard is located in Portsmouth, Rhode Island. They produce red and white wines located from grapes which are locally grown. Chardonnays and Cabernets are produced from the fertile soils of Greenvale Vineyards.
2. The Mount Pleasant Winery
Located north of St. Louis in Augusta, the Mount Pleasant Vineyards and Winery produces the best wine out of quality grapes. With Chambourcin grapes, a Nouveau-like wine is aged and fermented. Chambourcin is a type of red grape grown mostly in states located on the East.
3. Domaine Drouhin
Located in the Red Hills of the Dundee in Oregon, this vineyard claims a sense of history since it is owned by the Drouhin family. Their wine has received worldwide recognition due to class and quality. The Pinot Noir wines that they produce have the distinct flavors of berries and vanilla for an exquisite taste.

Located in the mountains of Santa Cruz in California, the Savannah Chanelle vineyards produce Zinfandel, Cabernet Franc and Pinot Noir. Pinot Noir is mostly produced in the vast vineyards of Savannah Chanelle and are on the top of the list when it comes to this type of wine.
5. Chappellet Winery
California, being the wine-producing state in the US, includes the Napa Valley region.
This is where the Chappellet Winery is located and they produce Chardonnay, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. This winery produces wines which undergo as little processing as possible.
6. Sanford Winery
This vineyard is located in Buellton, California in the Santa Ynez valley. They make Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
When deciding which wine to serve your family, consider the bottles produced by such popluar wine makers and you can't go wrong.

That one perfect day (Lahontan Valley News)
Sun, 23 Nov 2008 00:15:42 -0800
Everybody has a day they remember as "that one perfect day." It could be their wedding day - for me it was both of them, the first June 12, 1943 and the second on Oct. 4, 1969.

CALIFORNIA FOCUS: Blogs, Marriage Equality, Alternative Energy, Groups and Events
Fri, 21 Nov 2008 15:00:00 -0800
I will continue, for some time, be focusing on Marriage Equality. This is not my issue. I am not gay. I do know some gay people, but not so many that their issues tend to be mine. But the attempts in this nation to deny basic equality, to even RECOGNIZE basic equality, to some 10% of Americans, horrifies me. Prop 8 was terrible. It was passed out of irrational fear, fear that NO ONE need feel. The love between two people should NEVER be seen as a threat.I will keep the statement by Keith Olberma
Fresno State Winery Celebrates 10th Anniversary

On December 5th Fresno State Winery will celebrate their 10 years in the wine business with a party featuring the release of a special Anniversary 2007 vintage Syrah sourced exclusively from the Fresno State Vineyards. Fresno State Winery has the distinction of being the nation’s first and still the only licensed university producing and selling student-made wine. Cornell will soon follow suit, I am sure. I well remember last year finding one of the school’s many wines in Trader Joe’s here
