Nov. 22, 2014 - PRLog -- Holman Ranch Tasting Room Celebrates National Prohibition Repeal Day, Friday, December 5^th

Save the Date and join Holman Ranch to raise a glass to the 21st Amendment

Celebrate the end of the failed experiment known as Prohibition. In case you need a refresher, Congress passed the Volstead Act on October 28, 1919, which was designed to enforce and carry out the intent of the Eighteenth Amendment, prohibiting alcoholic beverages in the United States. The Eighteenth Amendment was repealed by the Twenty-First Amendment, which went into effect December 5, 1933.

Got all that? If not, don’t worry. Just raise a glass of Holman Ranch Wines and be grateful.  Happy days are here again!

Holman Ranch Vineyard and Winery (http://www.1888pressrelease.com/holman-ranch-tasting-room-celebrates-national-prohibition-re-pr-499525.html) Background:

Located at the north eastern tip of the Carmel Valley Appellation, the family-owned Holman Ranch resides approximately 12 miles inland from the Pacific Coast. Immersed in history and romance, the ranch has not only proven to be an excellent growing location for our vineyards (http://www.1888pressrelease.com/holman-ranch-tasting-room-celebrates-national-prohibition-re-pr-499525.html) but also for the Tuscan varietal olive trees which have flourished under the temperate climate.

Holman Ranch estate-grown wine varietals are planted on approximately 19 acres of undulating terrain. The wines produced are unfined and crafted to deliver the true varietal of the grape from harvest to bottle. The climate and terroir of the appellation has played a critical part in the success of their wines. The warmth of the inland valley coupled with the cooling marine layer has proven to be an ideal microclimate for the production of Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris (http://www.1888pressrelease.com/holman-ranch-tasting-room-celebrates-national-prohibition-re-pr-499525.html). The vineyards' Burgundy Clones have thrived from the perfect blend of ideal climate, southern exposure and thin rocky soils.

The estate wines of Holman Ranch include: Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Rosé of Pinot Noir. Carefully hand-harvested, cold pressed and bottled, the Extra Virgin Olive Oil produced from the fruits of our trees has a delightfully distinctive flavor.
