Edmunds St. John, Eno Wines, and Harrington Wine Holiday Sale This Weekend
I am happy to announce our participation in a special Holiday Sale with Edmunds St. John and Harrington Wine this Saturday and Sunday December 3-4th from noon to 5 pm at 805 Camelia St in Berkeley, CA.I am happy to announce a special Holiday sale with three boutique wineries this Saturday and Sunday December 3-4th from noon to 5 pm at 805 Camelia St in Berkeley, CA. We will have small appetizers catered by Bob Dylan's personal chef and lots of wines listed below.
For those who don't know, here's a quick background on the wineries: Edmunds St. John started over 20 years ago with a goal of producing world-class, European-style wines in California using Rhône varietals: Grenache, Mourvèdre, Syrah, and Viognier. Eno Wines hand-crafts small batches of Pinot Noir, Zinfandel and Syrah. Award-winning labels and evocative names express the unique qualities of each wine. Harrington Wine is an artisan producer that focuses exclusively on premium Pinot Noir, showcasing California's different appellations from Mendocino to Monterey.
This is a special event celebrating over 3 decades of winemaking. The 805 Camelia location has operated continuously as winery since 1977. Steve Edmunds started making wine in the space in 1985. Starting in 2001, Sasha and Bryan custom crushed their own label under Grapeleaf Cellars. When Grapeleaf moved on in 2005, Sasha and Bryan took over the space. Eno and Harrington Wine hope to continue the legacy...
Cash, credit cards, and checks (with ID) will be accepted. Case discounts will apply. If you are unable to attend and want to order your wine, please place an order before the sale. It is likely that wines will sell out.

Fantastic wine tasting, Sasha!
I absolutely enjoyed every last drop that I could
get a chance to taste. Kudos to you all; Edmunds St. John,
Harrington wines, and to Eno wines;
indeed a great gathering of formidable wines.
"The Great Promise" was no misnomer; it definitely
came through on its promise! And both the Zin and the Syrah were
spectacular. I look very forward to getting my hands on all of them
and getting an chance to taste some more of that "dark horse"
2004 Pinot Noir...
don't stop.

Thanks Sy for your notes and support. I was delighted with the amount of people (there were so many people it felt like a Green Day concert), the response to the wines and labels, and the chance to taste so many different wines from different wineries. Based on people's interest, it seems like we might have another event in spring.
Cheers,
