Item Description
Enjoy a wine tasting and tour for 8 or more people at Long Creek Winery & Ranch, a boutique winery encompassing thirty acres neatly tucked away in the Sierra Foothills within a stone's throw of massive Lake Oroville, seventy miles north of Sacramento, California. The vineyards and winery are uniquely situated on the western side of the Sierra mountain range where the four seasons are relatively mild. The vineyards enjoy a micro-climate that is comparable to some of the hillside country of central and northern Italy. The winery's close proximity to Lake Oroville with its 177 mile shoreline and 15,000 surface acres of water tempers the long hot days in the summer with gentle evening breezes giving the grapes a long growing season maximizing sugar and tannin development. Within this unique micro-climate the grapes enjoy the right combination of soil, sun, wind and water (the French call it "terroir").This beautiful combination produces grapes of deep color, balanced acidity, soft tannins and intense fruit flavors. The water to irrigate the vineyards is crystal clear and pure and flows through the ranch, free of chemicals and chlorine.
At Long Creek Winery & Ranch our emphasis is placed on quality and not quantity. The vineyards are meticulously pruned to provide low yield grapes. It is our philosophy that low yield vineyards provide the greatest quality grapes. Premium wines are influenced from quality grapes and our winemaking techniques in the winery render the wine's style and it is in this style that we cater to the modern-day wine enthusiast.
Certificate entitles bearer to a private tour of the winery and private tasting for a group of up to eight.
