2008 ZERO MANIPULATION
Easy to Use, Cheap to Operate, and oh so delicious!
We recently received a very nice endorsement for the 2008 Zero in the summer issue of Cambria Style magazine, by Wine Sommelier Leslee Miller! Here is what the article had to say, as well as a link to the magazine:
Great for Grilling
Zero Manipulation
by Peterson Winery
Smokin’ hot, charred and right off the grill deserves a wine with similar attributes. This dark-fruited mouthful is a combination of Carignan, Petite Sirah, Syrah and Zinfandel. I love it! $15-$17

82% Old Vine Carignane filled out with 6% each Zinfandel, Syrah, and Petite Sirah.
The spicy, smoky quality of this wine makes it perfect for BBQ, while the low level of tannin allows it to be enjoyed slightly chilled.

Notes from The Cellar-
This time of year brings many big moments and decisions for the life of our wines inside the winery. Bottling the last of the delicious 2009 reds will take place in the next few weeks. We are also in the middle of putting together our blends of the 2010 vintage that are still in barrels. If you would like an inside look at how the blending process takes place, the following will tell you more about our winemaker Jamie’s upcoming blending seminar.
Saturday, July 23rd – 10:30am – 2:30pm
Blending Seminar with Winemaker Jamie Peterson
– The Bordeaux Varietals.
Come taste the exciting first vintage (2010) wines of Cabernet Franc, Petite Verdot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot/Malbec off the newly replanted Bradford Mountain Vineyard. Those of you that participated in planting the Cabernet Franc might enjoy tasting the fruits of your labor.
Each attendee will put together their own Bordeaux blend and learn firsthand some of the finer points of what goes into a great bottle of wine.
$45/person, just $35 for Wine Club Members. Price includes lunch and a bottle of your custom blend.
To RSVP, call 707-431-7568 or email jamie@petersonwinery.com no later than July 12th. Also, tickets are available online by clicking here. Space is limited to the first 18, so please respond soon if you want to be a part of this unique Bordeaux varietal blending seminar.

Summer Celebration –
Peterson Winery was started in 1987 in an old red barn on Lytton Springs Road. We never had a tasting room, and relied on word-of-mouth appointment visitors and a few events a year to sell our wine. One of those events was our Summer Open House, and we invite you to continue that tradition with us as we head into our 25th year.
Saturday, August 13th – 4:30pm – 7:30pm
Peterson Summer Open House
Come help us celebrate as we gear up for the 25th vintage of Peterson Winery. Enjoy some new and sneak peak releases, a few special library wines and some tasty bites as we toast 25 years of handcrafting Peterson Wines.
This celebration is free to the friends of Peterson Winery.

Vineyard Views –
This spring, much like last year, was cool and wet and delayed the vines bloom a good two weeks. Unlike last year where the vines were loaded with large and full clusters, this year we have fewer, looser and smaller clusters to begin the unknown weather of this summer. We hope the weather stays warm, clear and incredibly boring for the balance of the growing season and it doesn’t rain until November. At the moment, the vines are green and full, the tiny grapes are just beginning to size up and we are working on our good thoughts and positive energy for the 2011 harvest.
If you’ve ever desired to walk through beautiful vineyards and get a better understanding of how grapes are grown, we are having an event that is perfect for you.
Saturday, August 27th – 8am – 1pm
Bradford Mountain Vineyard and Varietal Exploration with Winegrower Fred Peterson
Join Fred Peterson for a walk through his estate vineyard on Bradford Mountain. As we take a look at all the different varieties grown in Fred’s vineyard, we will also have the opportunity to taste and compare the flavors of the grapes as harvest approaches.
Following the vineyard tour, we will taste through a few current and new releases from Peterson Winery, including our Bradford Mountain wines. The event finishes with lunch in the cellar, or at the picnic grounds (weather dependant).
8am-9am – check in, breakfast pastries, & coffee/tea
9am-11am – Bradford Mountain Vineyard tour
11am-1pm Wine tasting/lunch at the winery
$45/person or $35 for Wine Club Members. Click here to buy tickets, give us a call at 707-431-7568, or send an email. Space is limited to the first 18 people, so reserve your spot soon!
