Garre Vineyard and Winery

 

Garre is one of the few wineries in California to specialize in five varietals known by winemakers as the Bordeaux Blends: Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Many unique blends are crafted from these varietals, and the winemakers oversee every step of the operation, from harvesting to bottling. Garre is a popular spot for weddings and other special events, and the winery hosts a Bocce Ball & Italian Dinner Night every Wednesday evening through September.

Amazon Price: (as of 07/26/2008)

I purchased this book at one of the wine festivals, and even had it signed by the authors. Don't worry if you're not into quilting... it's worth adding to your library for the photos alone. Several Livermore Valley wineries are featured, including Thomas Coyne Winery, Livermore Valley Cellars, Fenestra Winery, Wente Vineyards, and artwork by Darcie Kent.
