Our Angel Blush Wine Wins "Best in World"

ANGEL BLUSH WINS “BEST IN WORLD”—PLUS THREE OTHER MEDALISTS

We were absolutely thrilled to learn our Angel Blush wine, long a favorite of our customers, was awarded a Gold Medal and chosen Best In Class of natural fruit wines in a huge wine competition involving virtually all of the “New World”—North America, Central America, South America, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa. 

Terry and I are so excited to also be receiving a trophy to honor this accomplishment!

In the same competition, our Blackberry/Cabernet Franc won a Silver Medal, with Cherry/Apple Blush and Raspberry wines each garnering Bronze Medals. 

We are especially proud of this distinction coming from the world’s fourth largest wine competition. It means we were competing against the best of wines from the great wine houses of California, Australia, and many other countries. 

We were told by the head of the wine competition that Angel Blush was vastly underpriced, and should be selling for at least $22.00 per bottle. It was a nice compliment, but Terry emphasized “we wouldn’t do that to our loyal customers”. So, enjoy this “bargain”---we appreciate all of you so much!

How absolutely appropriate! All your wines are top notch and our faves! Congrats.

We recently stopped at your vineyard and bought Angel Blush. Which is fantastic. Do have any distributers in the Minneapolis/St Paul Mn area? Again Loved it
