Thanks for the response. I'll look for them out here. I do usually make a trip or two out to the SF Bay area each year and might ask you again then. Hit me up if you are ever in the SF bay. I'm just an hour north. Hey Ryan, I'll actually be out there next week for work.. though I won't be renting a...

Been into punk rock for 40 years, yet I still don't know what hardcore means exactly.

I'll say Bad Brains

In-n-out Burger
Motorhead
YETI coolers-unless you are hauling lion meat through the desert, you don't need a cooler of this grade.

Do y’all distribute out to the Midwest/Illinois? Would happily buy a bottle if so. (Did a quick search on the local mega liquor store web site and didn’t see any Copain Wines.)

We have it by the glass at The Lobster in Santa Monica and at Vibrato right now.
We're pretty much sold out of the 2022. We just bottled the 2023 and waiting to ship it out and get placements again.

^ I could totally see myself geeking out on this stuff. Any recommendations for books, videos, etc. for the novice wine drinker? Kermit Lynch Adventures on the Wine Route is a great adventure story on his early days of importing now classic wines into the US. Behind the scenes meeting legendary win...

Ryan, what else you got in your white blend? the newly released 2023 Daybreak is a wild mix of Malvasia Bianca Riesling Viognier Gewurztraminer Sauvignon Blanc Chenin Blanc As you can probably surmise, it's a highly aromatic wine that appears sweet on the nose, but it is dry and has pretty zippy ac...

I'm a big fan of Camillo Donati, who would be my go-to for lambrusco. Is this one pretty dry? I love the dry offering from Cleto Chiarli. I see on the the Donati site that they make Malvasia too. I am intrigued. I harvested some this past harvest for my white blend at Copain and it turned out amazi...
