    Wineries that participated in last year's event:
    Cameron Hughes Wine
    With an obsession for quality and innovation, Cameron Hughes Wine, founded by Cameron Hughes and partner Jessica Kogan, is dedicated to building a reputation for delivering the best domestic and international wine values in the marketplace today.

    Clos Saron
    Our primary interest in Pinot Noir is due to its unique ability to capture the essence of its place of origin. “Traditionalists” in Burgundy will tell you that a good Pinot expresses its varietal, whereas a great one expresses its terroir... You will certainly find our Pinots distinctly different from their Russian River, Central Coast, and Oregon relatives, while being as true to their varietal as any.

    Coho Wines
    Founded in 2002, we make wines that are easy to enjoy, full of flavor and reasonably priced. Our desire is to support and work with others to promote sustainable farming practices and preservation of natural habitats, especially for all salmonoid species. Coho has garnered recognition from the press, wine trade, and wine lovers for the quality and value of our unique, vineyard-designated Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Merlot and  our Bordeaux Blend, HEADWATERS ™

    Herzog Wine Cellars
    Tucked away in a uniquely named town about an hour north of Los Angeles, Herzog Wine Cellars is busy redefining kosher. From the lamb bacon created at the in-house restaurant, Tierra Sur, to the recently released To Kalon Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon dubbed ‘the first cult kosher Cabernet’ by the Wine Spectator, we definitely aren’t resting on our centuries-old laurels.

    Hagafen Cellars
    Hagafen Cellars is located in the Napa Valley, in the heart of California's premier wine grape region. Less than a mile south of the famed Stags leap District and twenty yards from the Oak Knoll District--Napa's newest and most exciting of American Viticultural Areas--our well-drained soil is ideal for the growth and production of ripe and rich, intensely fruity small lot estate bottled wines.

    Match Vineyards
    Match Vineyards is a small, family-owned winery making Cabernet Sauvignon from our own two hillside vineyards in the Napa Valley. Our wines possess a lovely elegance and finesse that places them among the best that the Napa Valley has to offer.

    Shayneh Vista Vineyards
    Nestled in the Sonoma Valley, Shayneh Vista Vineyards is a unique private family estate where grapes are grown in the “Old World” tradition. The SVV grapes are of the highest quality, from the best root-stock and are hand-selected and hand-picked by a family steeped in the Sonoma Valley, private-estate tradition.

    Stein Family Vineyards
    We approach making wine differently than most folks, believing it is possible to provide for a future for our twins while also respecting and looking after other people's kids, too. We're less concerned with short-term profits and much more interested in creating long-term sustainability for ourselves, for our family, and for others. By investing time into grower relations and selecting distinctive vineyards, we keep high the quality-to-value ratio while respecting and depending upon the personal involvement of the people who care about what they grow, pick, bottle, or sell; we go hunting for overlooked varietals and vineyards, making wines we like to drink--and which we hope others will, too.
