Hi! The Board is looking to create a stylized map of the Lamorinda AVA and are wondering if we have the talent within the membership to create the map. If this is you, please email me (Amy) at germinatekitchen@gmail.com
The style we’re looking for is illustrative rather than reality, like this
Thanks!
Amy

Sunday we celebrate the 5 year anniversary of the Lamorinda AVA. Of course we would prefer an in person event and will have that once covid restrictions are lifted. In the meantime, we have just 4 tasting kits left available! If you were planning to sign up for a tasting kit, and haven’t yet, here’s the link: tinyurl.com/MAR28-AVA You can probably get two tastings from one kit. It’s a great way to try some of the non-commercial wines in the region

In honor of the Lamorinda AVA turning 5 this year, the LWGA is celebrating with an afternoon of wine tasting, story telling, and more via Zoom on March 28, 2021 from 4pm.
We are excited to offer tastings from some AVA non-bonded wines not available for purchase. The tasting will include wine from Haas Vineyard, Reliez Valley Vineyards, Cherry Family Winery, vS Vineyards, Magalhaes Vineyards, and Davidson Vineyard.
Please sign up via this link for the tasting so that we know how many tastings to prepare. You will need to pick up your tasting kit within Lamorinda in the week before the tasting. Details will be sent to those attending closer to the time.
As we are including non-bonded wines, this celebration is just for LWGA members and spouses. Once public gatherings are allowed, in line with State health guidance, we will host another celebration of the AVA’s 5 year anniversary for both members and the general public. We are all looking forward to this second celebration for many reasons!
