Bringing Holiday Cheer from 19th Hole Wine

Tis the season to be merry and when you bring a bottle or two of our 19th Hole cab to uncle Fred , you'll be his Santa Clause.

We're offering a special with the Uncle Freds in mind, since he's also the guy who'll buy the first round at the 19th Hole after the round, even if he loses the bets. He wants to tell you about the new swing move he used on the shot over the trees that almost made it. Gotta love that guy, because some of him lives in all of us.

For him and all the other golfers out there we have a special of six bottles of Cabernet Sauvignon for $75 (without tax and shipping) and a 19th Hole Wine golf cap.

If you'd like to tee this offer up, call me directly at this point to ensure delivery to your door. My cell is 707-529-6458.

Wine Tasting at Guardsmen Treelot

Happy Holidays and it's November 30th and tonight I'll be pouring 19th Hole wine at the Guardsmen treelot at Fort Mason in San Francisco.

There will be other Guardsmen pouring their wines too. I believe there are about twelve of us that own wineries.

Our treelot is very impressive if you haven't seen it. Minnepolis has the Great Mall, well the Guardsmen have their Great Treelot and every Guardsmen (under 40) has to help operate the lot over five shifts. About 2,500 trees will be sold raising money for Bay Area charities. The Guardsmen raise about 2 million a year for great causes!

Anyhow, if you can make it down, it'll be worth your while. Hope to see you!

Next 19th Hole Wine Club Event

We'll be out watching Michael Allen at the Schwab Cup at Harding Park Saturday, November 5.

Come out it should be a great day in San Francisco and Michael Allen will have a good chance to win this tournament.

Afterward we'll taste some 19th Hole wines at the Beach Chalet, a couple miles from the golf course. Everybody who come out will get a 19th Hole hat.

For more information call me (Kris Moe) at 707-529-6458.

Harvest Time in the Wine Country

It's a great time to be in the wine country. All the wineries are doing what they do best, making wine.

If you love wine and haven't experienced seeing wine being made, it really is worth a visit. It all begins with the pick early in the morning and then they transported to the winery to be processed for fermentation. At our winery we may have ten different types of grapes coming through at various times this month.

19th Hole Wine will be doing a Chardonnay this year from Alexander Valley. We'll be aging it in oak to give it that buttery touch that most of us enjoy. I expect we'll be bottling this wine next Summer in July or so. We expect it'll be a bargain at $20 a bottle. The previous vintages from this vineyard are award winning Chardonnays at $30 plus a bottle.

I'm really excited about a new merlot blend we're bottling this month. It is blended with 15% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon all from Sonoma County. We'll price this wine at $15 a bottle.

In the same bottling run we'll also put into bottle our Sonoma Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. This is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from 2008 and we expect to sell this at $30 a bottle.

Give us a call if you'd like to watch us make the wine or if you'd like to come up to taste. Our phone number is 707-529-6458.

19th Hole Wine Club event at Pebble Beach

Wednesday, June 16th we're teeing it up at Fort Ord, truly one of the best golf courses in California. After the round we'll be heading to Jack's in Carmel for a winemaker dinner and my new wines from 19th Hole (a new Limited Merlot and Chardonnay from Mendocino along with some other beauties you may not have tasted).

Call me at 707-529-6458.

On Friday, June 18th we'll be pouring our 19th Hole wines at the Merchant's Exchange in the financial district of San Francisco (15th Floor). We'll be in the ballroom where they'll be showing World Cup soccer and the US Open on numerous screens. I'll also be flying the flag for my golf lessons, I'll be rotating in and out doing freebie lessons into a large infltable net we'll have set up along with our video analysis gear.

Releasing new Chardonnay for Summer season

We've just made available a new Chardonnay from Mendocino County. It's a 2006 with low alcohol (13.5% which is great during Summer). Unlike our Limited Sonoma Valley Chardonnay from 2008 it is less buttery. It's very fresh and we think a delighful house Chard to have around for about $12 retail.

Pick up a bottle now with a 20% discount from our site if you put in PGA as the discount code when you check out.

Hey, we'll be down the US Open most of the week and inviting everyone to join us for golf at Fort Ord June 18th at 1:00 pm. The green fee is $125 and I'll be offering a winemaker dinner at Jack's in Carmel for another $75. If you'd like to join in bring a group or we'll set you up with a group. Call me (Kris Moe) at 707-529-6458.

New wines being released from 19th Hole Winery

If you haven't yet had a chance to come to our winery, please do if you're in the area (Russian River area). It's in a beautiful area and I'd be very happy to show you around while tasting some of our wines.

This week I'm purchasing some Mendocino Chardonnay that we will have for sale in May just in time for the Summer. I'm also very happy to announce that I'll be putting into bottle some super special barrels from my 2007 vintage, a Dry Creek 100% Merlot.

We'll be at the US Open all week doing a wine maker dinner and a golf clinic or two at Poppy Hills. If you are a golfer get out and play Fort Ord's golf courses or if you can swing it, Spanish Bay.
