SFGate VOTERS NAME
AUDELSSA ESTATE TOP SONOMA WINERY
Small Glen Ellen Winery Apparently
Not a Secret Any Longer
GLEN ELLEN, California (October 14, 2009)—The San Francisco Chronicle’s SFGate online community voted Audelssa Estate the top Sonoma winery in their Wine Country Getaway Poll. Over 1,600 consumers cast their votes between August 18 and September 27 and the final tally showed Audelssa Estate on top. Whether it’s the spectacular view from the artisanal winery high up on the Sonoma side of Mount Veeder, or the stylish tasting room in quaint Glen Ellen or the highly extracted, elegant wines themselves: SFGate readers love Audelssa and seek it out as their favorite Wine Country destination in Sonoma.
During September and October, visitors to the comfortable Audelssa Tasting Room, located at 13647 Arnold Drive in Glen Ellen, California were treated to tastings of all five of the Fall Release wines, including the next-to-impossible to find Summit Reserve, Alder Springs Merlot, Napa Valley Zinfandel and the highly acclaimed Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve. “We go out of our way to be hospitable to our guests,” said winemaker Erich Bradley. “We hope that every time they open one of our bottles it brings back good memories of their visit to either the winery or the tasting room.”
For those who are willing to make the journey, private tours can also be arranged at Audelssa. The winery sits high up on the Sonoma side of Mount Veeder, surrounded by the spectacular Mountain Terraces Vineyard with unmatched vistas of the Sonoma Valley and beyond. Sommelier superstar Christopher Sawyer from The Lodge at Sonoma summed it up, “Audelssa is a must see. I highly recommend it. The wines and the people are both exceptional.”
