We're excited to unveil the first taste of our 2020 red wines ! After careful aging, these reds are ready for blending and we need you to help us determine the blend for the Raffaldini Grande Riserva!
Assemblaggio is a two-hour educational wine experience led by Owner Jay Raffaldini and Winemaker Chris Nelson in our winery barrel room. Each blend you create will be carefully analyzed, sampled and help inspire our new vintage of Grande Riserva.
This is an opportunity to hone your winemaking knowledge and ability, learn more about grape varietals, and make a few new friends in the process. Blending trials will be held in the barrel room allowing you to experience the winery during the winemaking session.
