With 2009 safely ensconced in the past we can all breathe a sigh of relief. (Phew!) Now with that done it’s time to take a deep breath and charge boldly ahead  into a bright and fresh New Year!

We are very excited here at Ehret Family Winery about all of our ‘near future’ plans for 2010. The vineyards may be resting but we are not! We are locking down our twenty-ten tasting schedules among other things and will have them posted soon but as a heads up in the meantime, mark your calendars for the Family Winemakers of California’s big upcoming tasting event in Pasadena Tuesday, March 16th. But that’s not all, in addition to this big annual event, FWM has now added a San Diego Tasting! This will be on Sunday, March 14th, very exciting and yes, we will be there!

Please feel welcome to sign our guest book so that as the year unfolds you won’t miss out on all the exciting news and special offers ahead.

All of us here at the winery hope that all of you had a safe and happy holiday season and look forward to spending more adventures with you in the year ahead. And as always, thank you so much for your continued support of Ehret Family Winery!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

The Ehret Family,

Pierre, Susan, Alex, Christian and (yes, you guessed it) Bella

Here are some videos of our 2009 harvest for both Ehret Family wines and others who use our grapes.

Score: 88

Appealing for its refreshing spicy lime peel, tangerine, melon and green apple notes. Light-bodied and juicy with good intensity through the finish. Drink now. 500 cases made.–MW

We are so excited!!! Our first vintage got 90pts in Wine Enthusiast, right out of the gates.  Here’s what they had to say;

“Knights Valley, an inland Sonoma County region, is not well known, but is home to some impressive Cabernets.  This one, a first release, shows enormous promise.  It’s made in the modern style, slightly soft but richly textured, with ripe currant, cherry, chocolate and new oak flavors that are grounded with an earthy note of olives and herbs.  This is a winery to keep an eye on.” – SH Wine Enthusiast August 2008
