Here is the link for the Urban Wine Road segment (it’s the second one) on View From the Bay that came on yesterday. We watched the never-used tasting room television, with its fuzzy picture, as our images flew past. But there we were, no flubs, thank goodness! And cheers to fellow East Bay wineries: our […]
I hesitate to mention the following announcement. But I’m all about spreading the Rosenblum love, so I’ll put my personal feelings aside, mostly.
Okay, here it is. We’ll be on ABC’s View from the Bay this Wednesday, at 3 pm. And by we, I mean too much me. Even though I pointed out the presence of […]
This year finds us celebrating our 30th anniversary, and you know what that means…. PARTIES! No one likes to have a good time as much as this funky Alameda winery (unless it’s a crazy bunch of rubber chickens from Twisted Oak).
Here’s what we have lined up:
Friday, July 18
Sonoma-themed winemaker dinner, catered by The Girl & […]
Then come on over to Rosenblum Cellars this Wednesday (July 9), from 6:30 to 8:30! With the help of one of our winemakers—John Kane— we’ll learn how oak goes from the tree to the barrel. And then, more importantly, how that affects our favorite beverage. The hospitable Mr. Kane will lead us on a tour […]
Earlier this month, Kelly and I went a little crazy at the Party Warehouse in Oakland, buying rainbow-themed decorations and disco balls for the tasting room. June is Gay Pride Month, and Rosenblum Cellars has love for all our customers. Therefore, we’ll be having our own Pride celebration tomorrow–Friday, June 27. All day long (11-6) we’ll […]
Tonight I’ll be teaching a wine seminar on California appellations—a liquid crash course. We’ll be covering six AVA’s, tasting our way across the state. Santa Barbara, Paso Robles, Livermore, Contra Costa, Redwood Valley, and of course, Rockpile… which Rosenblum helped put on the map. Then we’ll taste a few more wines blind, to see if folks […]
Nestled in a brick building on Telegraph in the Temescal neighborhood of Oakland is a wonderful little wine shop you might almost drive past in your hurry to get there. Luckily, I have pretty quick reflexes (in other words, no one was behind me) and made a sharp turn into the parking lot. Walking around the […]
A while back, I said I would write about the 2005 JC Cellars The Flip Side. Except I didn’t know what was in it. Having bought the bottle on my first visit to the winery back in October, I only remembered the tasting room gal mentioning that Jeff (Cohn, as in ‘JC’) had put the […]
Last night I went to a meeting for the East Bay Vintners’ passport event that will occur Saturday, April 5 (more details to follow). But here’s the fun thing: we met at Periscope Cellars, located in Emeryville in an old submarine repair facility. And I was told in passing that Top Chef season 1 was […]
This could be one crazy weekend for me. It’s Open House, which is crazy enough by itself, but I think this one is going to be super busy. We sold tickets online for only the third time, and yesterday afternoon found the cap of 800 for today already reached, with plenty of people calling to […]
