This isn’t just any visit; it’s the 2024 harvest, a time of vibrant energy and anticipation, and Margaret is joining Hospitality Manager Kim Badenhop for a truly delicious and convivial experience amid the glorious ripe vines.
Lula Cellars has garnered well-deserved praise for its handcrafted Pinot Noir wines, cultivating a dedicated following along the way. Their focus is laser-sharp: producing world-class Pinot Noirs sourced from their estate vineyards and other carefully selected sites within the Anderson Valley and the broader Mendocino County. Recognizing the diverse tastes of today’s wine lovers, Lula also crafts a range of other wines to complement their flagship Pinot Noirs.
The driving force behind Lula Cellars is the shared vision of Proprietor Ken Avery and Winemaker Matt Parish. Their goal is simple yet profound: to create wines that are both approachable and unforgettable, wines that invite you in and leave a lasting impression. This customer-centric philosophy is woven into the very fabric of their business.
Join Margaret as she sits down in the vineyard with Lula Cellars’ Hospitality Manager, Kim Badenhop amidst the bustling activity of the harvest. They’ll explore the compelling story of Lula Cellars, delve into the artistry of their winemaking process, and, of course, savor a tasting of their exceptional wines. You can hear the virtual “Bells of Friendship” ring as Margaret and Kim clink glasses in the final tasting on this rare Kitchen Chat and Wine Tasting which offers an enriching and delightful experience for any wine enthusiast.
