Hendry Wines<\/a> — Albari\u00c3\u00b1o and Harvest Tours<\/strong><\/p>\n

We just tried an Albari\u00c3\u00b1o wine made by Hendry winery. There are just a very few California wineries that make this wine varietal. Albari\u00c3\u00b1o is a Spanish white wine, grown mainly in the Rias Biaxas DO (Denominations of Origin) in Spain. This area in Spain is in the region of Galicia and located just above Portugal next to the Atlantic Ocean. The area is a huge fishing area and the Spaniards love this wine with a variety of light seafood dishes. George Hendry’s Albari\u00c3\u00b1o is wonderful and very unique among California white wines. George made very few cases, so hurry if you are interested in tasting some of his Albari\u00c3\u00b1o. The wine is not exactly cheap at $19 per bottle. We have been buying Spanish Albari\u00c3\u00b1os for $12 to $16 that are very good.<\/p>\n

On another note, George Hendry is scheduling his harvest tours. We have taken the tour three years in a row. His tours are the best, bar none. The tours take place from September 7th through September 24. Total time for tour and tasting is about 2.5 hours. Contact the winery for the schedule and more information.<\/p>\n

Hall Winery and Frank O. Gehry Team Up<\/strong><\/p>\n

The famous architect Frank Gehry has designed an amazing structure for Craig and Kathryn Hall to be built at the Hall Winery location on Highway 29, just south of St. Helena. Frank Gehry is famous for his very modern and far out designs that create instant controversy and criticism. We will be traveling to Spain in September and we have on our itinerary a visit to his highly acclaimed work, the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao. From the photos of the Hall Winery we have seen in the newspaper, this winery is going to be a stunner. It is sure to create a stir.
