We are especially excited to have this news to celebrate with guests at our first Winter Feast and Wine Pairing event on Friday, January 30th. It’s going to add something real special to be able to introduce and share each of our wines that evening as a medal winner! We are eternally grateful to the Lord, our family, Joe Smith, our wine-maker, and our dear friends that all helped make Engelheim Vineyards and our award-winning wines a reality.” The San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition received 6,417 entries from more than 28 states.
