The rosé is selling fast. Granted, with only 700 bottles, it won't take much to sell out, but none-the-less, it's on its way. Last week, Terroirs took another 120 bottles and when we had dinner there on Saturday night, Tom told us that he was almost half-way through it! Geez, we may have to tell him to slow down a bit. It would be nice if it lasted through August. Friends are stopping by to pick up a case here and there, so we have sold at least half of it already. Not bad for a first try!
On Saturday night as we sat at Terroirs with Matt's brother
Brian and his wife Jenn, we kept saying, "Ooh look, they're drinking it! Oh, and over there too!" It was pretty funny, kind of like watching your kids at the school play, glowing with pride as they come out on stage..." Finally, I got my courage up to take a picture of Tom (the owner) pouring our wine at a table right behind us. The customers were a couple from England who have a house in the region. We asked if they minded, and they graciously accepted to be photographed for the blog! Also, here's a picture of the wine list, if you squint hard enough, you'll see us listed in the section under rosés! Pretty exciting!
So you did take a picture! Proud of ya, kid. I'm drinking a rose in the 100 degree heat here, too bad it isn't yours!
Sounds like you guys are on your way.

wow, that sounds like an awfully cool feeling.
We're also drinking nothing but rose these days in boiling Sonoma County, CA, but I doubt we'll see any of yours over here soon, since your production is so small.
So where is the restaurant? We're headed over there next year, and it's never too early to start researching places to eat, IMHO. The wine prices look quite reasonable.

um, nevermind. I read some more of the blog and that answered my question.
