Upcoming events.
Petaluma Gap, Wind to Wine Tasting Petaluma
These tastings have been outstanding in past years -- strong wines, across the board, that show their cool-climate pedigree. You can't go wrong at any table, after you've made your initial beeline to mine, of course. https://petalumagap.com/wind-to-wine-festival/
Rhone Rangers, Sonoma
I'm particularly pleased with the Rhone section of my own lineup at the moment and happy for any opportunity to blandish the syrah and viognier. I should have barrel samples (at least) of the next vintages of both wines ready to pour for this event also. Note that the tasting window is on the tight side, so it’s important to arrive on time. https://rhonerangers.org Use promo code RHONESUMMER for $20 off tix.
Garagiste, Glendale
Small wineries from all over the state tote their wares to SoCal. If you've ever thought that wine tastings were likely to be stuffy affairs, this is the event to disabuse you of that notion. We're an unpretentious lot, and the Garagiste events are always fun. HTTPS://WWW.GARAGISTEFESTIVAL.COM

Walnut Creek, Uncorked
I’m giving this event a whirl for the first time. I believe I’ll be posted and pouring in a Downtown Walnut Creek merchant’s shop. Swing by. https://walnutcreekdowntown.com/marquee-events/walnut-creek-uncorked/
Pop-Up at Auberge du Soleil, Rutherford
There's hardly a better way to spend an afternoon than with a platter of oysters and a crisp white (often, my viognier) on the deck at Auberge. When you can then wander over to my table to taste for free on the patio, the idyll is perfected. https://aubergeresorts.com/aubergedusoleil/
