My heart will always be with this w**ery ❤️🩹
We started our vine and w**e adventure in 2001.
Twenty-five years later, I reflect on the many changes we've experienced, planting vines, vintages we've enjoyed, meeting thousands of people, making new friends, kids growing up, getting older, and losing our loved ones.
Like all the first wave vintners in the County, we built from the ground up. Hard work, facing challenges, fixing equipment, praying for rain, hoping for sun, and the thrill of the harvest and flurry of activity that comes with every vintage.
We had three generations of Del-Gatto working, laughing and creating a vineyard life ... born from the dream of one man that wanted to make w**e. Thank you, Pat, for being the dreamer that brought us here.
What a fantastical time we've had.
This year is for change:
This post is the first in the series of Countdown to Close.
Our current inventory is priced at $15/bottle:
Vidal 2023
Pinot Grigio 2023
Frontenac Noir 2021
Bella Luna sparkling 2023
Onsite retail/tasting April to June:
Saturdays 11-5
Sundays by chance
Online ordering 24/7
Then:
We'll be closing our retail and online store on June 27th - permanently.
We've enjoyed and are grateful to the w**e and hospitality industry for all the opportunities but mostly for the amazing people we've met.
So for these next few months I'll be in the store; stop in and stock up on the final Del-Gatto vintages or order online.
Until my next post,
Heidi
