Bouchaine Vineyards

Think I posted a little about this vineyard before, but thought I'd add it to The Brewery area.

Amanda took me to Napa for my birthday back in June.

Bouchaine is low valley vineyard, so they focus on Pinots, Chardonnays and other white or pale red wines. I love their Gewurztraminer, it is one of the best white wines I've ever tasted.

Bouchaine has a wine club where they send you two bottles a quarter of some of their most select wines. We look forward to seeing the Bouchaine logo on the box every 3 months.

The vineyard buildings are amazing! 90% of all winemaking is done in stainless steel, with barrels being use only for aging. Bouchaine had a novel use for all the massive old casks they had. They had all the old redwood casks cut down into planks and used this beautiful recycled wood to side the outside and inside of their buildings! If you like the look of natural wood, it is breath taking!

If you are a white wine drinker, and have a chance to visit Napa, check them out, you won't be disappointed.
