Agen itself is a sleepy but lovely medieval town deep in the Aquitaine. Our rosé from the lovely Christophe Avi is grown in and around Laplume, south of the Garonne, which enjoys the sandy soils that extend from the Landes Forest. 'What is Agenais? This is the IGP that was established in 2011 to capture the typicity of the wines from the Lot-et-Garonne area of Southwest France.

What I like most about Scribe (besides the wine) is that they let you have the kind of experience that you want to have. We enjoyed a bottle of Chardonnay after our tastings The inside of the house had a rustic vibe going. Almost everyone became a member of Scribe’s wine club, so I know this will be a great place for all of us to regroup over summer and for seasons to come.Įnjoy some photos from our day under the Sonoma Sun! There are only a handful of Chardonnay’s that I actually like, and the aging process of this one really makes it special.

I enjoyed each wine we tasted but my favorite was the Skin Fermented Chardonnay. A nice bonus was that we were treated to a cheese/snack board and it was the perfect compliment to all of the wine we sampled. Once we were made aware of what makes Scribe so unique, we were introduced to the wines we would be tasting: the Estate Riesling, Chardonnay, Skin Fermented Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The name? Founder Andrew Mariani and his team consider themselves “scribes” of the land and the winery is a testament to that. Once we checked in, our host for the afternoon gave us the history of the property (dating back to 1858 all the way through Prohibition) and about the people behind Scribe. But the grown up, hip version of day camp and it was exactly what the doctor ordered. Once I got out of the car, it felt like I had arrived at day camp. Keep going and it leads you to the top of the hill, where the tasting room and picnic tables are. I drove from Sacramento to meet everyone and it only took me an hour and some change – not bad! When arriving at the vineyard, a long row of palm trees guide you to a dilapidated hacienda that makes you feel like you are on a back road in Cuba instead of Sonoma.

One of us had the idea to go to Scribe so we all gladly followed suit! I had seen the winery all over my Instagram feed, so I was pretty familiar with the place and was excited to finally visit. A few of my best gals from my time in San Francisco and I got together to visit Scribe Winery in Sonoma.
