Gundlach Bundschu Winery

After our fun grape stomp at Larson Family Winery, we went to the grocery store to stock up for the weekend. We rented a house in Sonoma and it ended up being awesome – very centrally located, nicely sized rooms, and a great for hosting the wedding afterparty. We did a big group dinner on Friday night after the grape stomp (pizza, quesadillas, salads and popcorn) and then got ready for our big day of tastings on Saturday.

We started the morning at Gundlach Bundschu, the oldest family winery in California. We did five different tastings (ending with their Cabernet that was just unveiled recently). Here’s me, Ken, Kristen and Drew taking a photo post tasting with the selfie-stick John and Erin gave everyone for the weekend:

They already started the harvest for this year, which is two weeks ahead of schedule:

After tasting five wines, we headed to Lagunitas for lunch and a beer tasting – it was a lot of alcohol to consume on a Saturday morning but a really fun day!
