California Wine Month

Posted on the 02 September 2013 by Jamie Gall @50states50wines

Happy September everyone, and this leads to my favorite month of the year.  Not just because it is California Wine Month, but because September has always been a month of change for me, and this September, is no exception as I will be moving to Northern California at the end of it.

But, yes, September is California Wine Month and I’d like to show case a variety of events happening in the different wine regions for the month long celebrations:
