On the second day of touring the Dry Creek region of Sonoma County, we visited Preston Vineyards.
The Prestons are proponents of organic farming and are as involved in the making of olive oil and vinegar as they are their wines. The wines themselves are mostly Rhone varieties and Zinfandel. The tasting room is in an old farm house at the end of a long winding driveway. The wines were very good.
Wines sampled:
2007 Barbera
2007 Zinfandel
2006 L. Preston Red, 55% Syrah, 20% Carignane, 20% Mourvedre, 5% Cinsault
2006 Syrah-Sirah, 90% Syrah, 10% Petite Sirah
2006 Petite Sirah
