Hand-sorting grapes during a crush
Our wine fermenting in the barrels
The final result: ultra premium wine

The winemaking at Woodenhead is pure and simple or, if you will, Burgundian done California-style. Our wine is handcrafted from a hard labor of love in tune to the natural rhythm of the land, the water, the air, and the seasons. No mechanical pumping is employed. Inoculated yeast and malolactic cultures, hand punching, basket pressing, French oak, and California fruit is what you get. Small and unique lots are our goal, ultra premium wine is the result.  (via woodenheadwine.com)

Tomorrow is the third Tasting Tuesday winemaker "happy hour" at Willi's Wine Bar and they will be featuring Nikolai Stez, the winemaker at Woodenhead. 

Details: 4:00 PM to 5:30 PM, Nikolai will lead a tasting of 2 to 3 of his wines paired with small bites from Willi's. Come by anytime between these hours to be a part of the fun, but the earlier you get there, the more fun! 

Cost is $10.00 per person. Wine from Woodenhead will be sold and if you drink a bottle while enjoying dinner at the restaurant, there will be no corkage fee.
