Retzlaff Estate Wines

Retzlaff Estate Wines


Livermore Valley Wine Country

Most wineries in California purchase at least some of their grapes from other growers, but Retzlaff wines are made exclusively from grapes grown organically in the family's own vineyards. An emphasis is placed on producing wines that reflect the terroir of the region, and for that reason no fertilizers, insecticides or herbicides are used on the vines. Retzlaff has been making fine estate wines for 25 years, and also operates a wine boutique in downtown Livermore at the historic Blacksmith Square.

Retzlaff Winery is located at 1356 South Livermore Avenue in Livermore, California.

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.
