The Temecula Valley Winegrowers Association would like to remind visitors to Temecula Wine Country during September hotels in banff alberta s California Wine Month that, yes, they actually grow grapes and use them in the wines.
People forget that what we do in Temecula is actually hotels in banff alberta agriculture, said Nick Palumbo, TVWA President and owner of Palumbo Family Vineyards Winery, in a phone interview. hotels in banff alberta My favorite quote is, Drinking wine is an agricultural act, and our association has really embraced California Wine Month, we are trying to let people know exactly what we do.
California Wine Month was created by the Wine Institute and the California Association of Winegrape Growers and proclaimed by Governor Jerry Brown to highlight the state s rich wine history and all that its vintners and growers add to the lifestyle and economy of the Golden State.
From Sept. 1-30, wine lovers can purchase a Sip Passport for $35, which can be exchanged for a full-flight tasting hotels in banff alberta (wine glass included) at four of TVWA s 35 member wineries. Better yet, visitors don t have to use all four on one day (although they can), and they can use the ones they don t use throughout the month. The TVWA is also offering Sip Stay packages (overnight and two-night accommodations) at several of the wineries resorts, with information available on on the TVWA website.
That excitement will come to a head on Sept. 14 when the entire winemaking community will come together for the fourth annual CRUSH event at Callaway Winery (32720 Rancho California Road, Temecula) from 7 to 9:30 p.m. Representatives from all 35 wineries will converge on the patio at Callaway to talk grape, enjoy fine cuisine from more than a dozen local chefs, farms and restaurants and dance to live music.
The month is also kind of a reminder and celebration for ourselves as winemakers, winegrowers and winery owners, Palumbo said. The CRUSH event, obviously it is open to the public, but it is a chance for us as winemakers to get together, take one night and relax and take some time to talk about what s going on in the wine world. It is a public awareness hotels in banff alberta thing, but its also a self-awareness campaign for us.
Right now is typically the start of a busy couple of months for winegrowers in the region. Though the grapes used for sparkling wines are in the  process of being harvested at the moment, the other white grapes and darker grapes will be harvested through September and October. Its then that a lot of the wineries will be hosting harvest celebrations and the always-popular grape stomps.
This year, the talk up and down the state is that (harvest time) is going to be early, Palumbo said. It has been a nice, cool summer for us, it was just that early on in the season, we had a couple of real heat waves, that made the vines push out a couple hotels in banff alberta of weeks early.
