Have you heard of Sangiacomo Family Vineyards? This is one of those vineyards that winemakers would love to have Sangiacomo grapes in their wine!

Had the pleasure of visiting Sangiacomo Family Vineyards in Carneros with California Tastings. We explored the vineyards, savored the wines, and had some amazing conversations.

Grateful for the hospitality and the chance to connect over our shared love of great wine.

What a wonderful day on the Sonoma Valley Trolley 🚃

California Tastings took a journey through Sonoma County aboard the charming Sonoma Valley Wine Trolley


We rolled through the countryside, hopping off at four incredible wineries.

First stop: Buena Vista Winery , where history meets rich flavors.

Next, we sipped & had lunch at the hip Beergarden of Bloom Carneros - Kivelstadt, then moved on to the welcoming Sangiacomo Family Wines winery.
We wrapped it all up at Larson Family Winery , where good vibes and great wine finished off the day.

We got to chat with amazing people at each stop, and we’re turning it all into a full podcast episode.

For now, here’s one of my favorite clips, featuring two people I really respect and enjoy.

This clip is at Buena Vista winery.

Follow as we get to take you Beyond the Pour!!

We are LIVE with our 27th Episode on Beyond the Pour by California Tastings 🎙️😎

Why do we call it Beyond the Pour?

Well, because we feel it’s super interesting to hear how our friends in Hospitality got to where they are!

As Simon Sinek ( A motivational thinker) said, “Nobody cares about your struggles-until you succeed. The world rewards results, not excuses.”

This is true for everything we do unfortunately! But we feel those conversations should be heard, so we can learn from them.

Oh by the way, for Ep.27 I get to interview another Iranian Sommelier who resides in New Zealand 🇳🇿.

Samira Kakh is such a delight to chat with and you can tell how much she appreciates & loves NZ.

This episode was a little longer than usual but what can I say…too much to talk about! 🍷✅

If you’re reading this in July, it’s time to fly-Europe’s lanes, Bahama’s breeze, or Sonoma County’s wine with ease.

This is your sign, don’t delay,
Pack your bags and get away!

Who says a bottle of wine can only be enjoyed one way? 🥂🍾🍷

Today we’re mixing it up with a spritz-style cocktail, using the sunny, citrusy 🍋 notes of a leftover Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc.

Over ice, l’ve added slices of
strawberries, lemon, blueberries, and rimmed the glass with a little sugar for that extra sparkle.

Whether you want to sip straight or shake things up, we love showing how versatile your wines can be.

Wineries, we’re your go-to team-bartenders, sommeliers, mixologists
—ready to craft unique experiences with your wines.

Let’s collaborate and showcase what’s possible.
