Folding Tables Needed for AVA Celebration

Hi All –

The Lamorinda AVA Celebration is April 27th and we’re looking forward to a great day sampling great wines and enjoying great company.

We still need three 6′ folding tables. Please let me know if you have one or more to share – we’d appreciate it.

Thanks!

4/27 AVA Celebration Help Needed

Hi All –

The 2025 AVA Celebration being held 4/27 is fast approaching! We are asking for people to help with set up in the morning from 10 – 12 and at the end of the day from 4 – 4:30. Please let me know if you are available to help at either time.

We are also interested in borrowing 6 folding tables. We will not be using table cloths so clean table tops are appreciated.

Finally, if anyone has flowers in their garden and would are willing donate some simple flower arrangements for the tables, we’d be very grateful. (All 6 do not have to come from the same person.)

If you are able to assist with any of these items, please let me know. The AVA Celebration Committee looks forward to seeing you all!

Thanks,

Leanne Pilot

Crane Terrace Winery is Bonded!

Hello All – 

I am happy to announce that Crane Terrace Winery is now a Bonded winery!  

For those of you we have yet to meet, we have 4500 vines in the rolling hills of the Sleepy Hollow neighborhood in Orinda.  The vineyard was planted in 2003.  We grow Syrah, Grenache, Chardonnay, and Roussanne.  

I’d like to thank Andrea Anderson of Beer and Wine Services, Inc. who has been an outstanding guide and compliance person, navigating the entire process for us (really, she does it all). If you need help with becoming bonded or compliance, Andrea can be reached at 707-942-6911.  Her website is www.beer-and-wine-services.com.

Cheers!
