Bonterra Organic Estates’ Post

This weekend, Bonterra Organic Estates was proud to be the wine sponsor for the 53rd World's Largest Salmon BBQ, the annual fundraiser for the Salmon Restoration Association and a Local Legacy project with the Library of Congress. We joined fellow B Corp members Thanksgiving Coffee Company and North Coast Brewing Company to provide delicious drinks to the approximately 3,000 attendees who ate, drank, and danced the day away to a variety of excellent local music acts in Fort Bragg, Mendocino County. We had a great time supporting such a worthy cause, and are already looking forward to sponsoring next year's event!

Bonterra is proud to be the wine sponsor for the second year in a row for the Good Farm Fund dinner series at Mendocino Grove, an epic glamping location right here in our home county. These fundraisers support microgrants for small farmers in Lake and Mendocino Counties, as well as the Farmers Market Match program that doubles the spending power of EBT users at local farmers markets. The first dinner in this year's series was an incredible night of local food, great music, and engaging company, and we can't wait for the next one! To learn more, visit www.goodfarmfund.org.

It's cherry season! 🍒 Butler Ranch is Bonterra's highest elevation vineyard, ranging from 1,700-2,200 feet above sea level, with sweeping views of Ukiah valley and surrounding mountains. This is where our Butler Ranch Single Vineyard red blend is grown. It's also home to an historic cherry orchard, which shares the same Regenerative Organic Certification as our vineyards - hence the cherry tree on The Butler's label! With respect for both the site’s native biodiversity and human history, Bonterra allows the ranch’s existing agricultural footprint to guide planting and other key decisions. Happy cherry eating, everyone. #regenerativeorganic #wine #wineindustry #mendocinocounty

“If more growers farm this way in Mendocino, then the North Coast, California, the U.S.—the world? Then we all benefit.” Thank you to Stacy Briscoe, DipWSET and Wine Enthusiast for highlighting the longstanding regenerative and organic agriculture efforts of Mendocino County! 🍷 #Mendocino #WineIndustry #Organic #Regenerative #Wine Joseph Brinkley Mendocino Winegrowers, Inc.

We wrapped up the second season of the Soil to Soul podcast this week with guest Sophie Menin, whose new book, A Year In the Vineyard, comes out next week. In this conversation, Sophie and host Jess Baum talk about what inspired her and co-author Bob Chaplin to create this beautiful book. They also dive into the vineron's reactions to climate change; how Sophie's culinary background influences and inspires her wine writing; and how wine can help us attune to nature. Listen to Sophie's episode here: https://lnkd.in/gD48xs4h Thanks to everyone for listening in this season. We learned so much from all of our incredible guests, and we hope you did, too!
