California Wine and Cheese
was created to highlight the undiscovered gold of California. Our focus
is on California produced wines and cheeses, as well as California
specialties like chocolates, olive oils and a variety
of gourmet food and wine country gift items.
Wines are produced in California
that express our varied climate and topography. Many of the wines are
unique to California because of this terroir. But beyond the great
California styles, there are wines which artfully mimic the
classic old world wines;
Bourdeaux and Burgundy of France, Sangiovese blends of Northern Italy,
Tempranillos and Garnachas of the Iberian Pennisula, along with
Rieslings and Gewurztraminers of Germany and Austria.
Today, California artisan and farmstead cheese
makers are crafting creamy soft cheeses, washed rind
cheeses, a variety of blues
and many others, all sourced from cows, sheep and goats. Like the wine,
these cheeses will be available both in the shop or to go, and we often
have small samples out for nibbling. In addition, there will always be 6-8
wines available for tasting, as well as flights of
wine on Friday and Saturday evenings. Both
tasting pours or full glasses are available.
We
are pleased to welcome everyone to stop by during our regular hours for
a tasting. We can't wait to meet you! Check back often to read about
special events and wines that we carry.
