Another Gold Medal for Bookcliff Vineyards

We are pleased to have received a gold medal at the Los Angeles International Wine Competition 2016. The 2013 Petit Verdot received 90 points and a gold medal. The Petit Verdot was a wine club selection for the 2016 spring distribution. This year 3010 wines were submitted to the competition. In previous years the 2010 Cabernet Franc Reserve also received a gold medal and best in class. If you received a bottle with your spring distribution - enjoy.

Gold for BookCliff Vineyards

For the second year in a row BookCliff Vineyards wines were awarded gold medals at the annual Governor's Cup competition.

Two wines from BookCliff Vineyards received gold medals at the 2015 Governor's Cup Competition, the 2012 Cabernet Franc Reserve (gold) and the 2014 Viognier (double gold). Both wines were selected for the Governor's Cup case. The second year in a row two wines or more from BookCliff Vineyards were selected for the Governor's Cup case representing the excellence in Colorado wines.
The plan is to offer the Governor's Cup case at select wine stores for purchase.
This year there will be a celebration at the History Colorado Center in Denver on August 1st, 2015 and the public is invited. This is a great opportunity to taste the wines and chat with the winemakers who will be in attendance.  

Impressive!

Congratulations to all the award winners at the 2014 Governor's Cup Colorado Winemaking Competition! What a perfect event to showcase the best wines of Colorado. Warren Winiarski happened to be one of the judges this year and was pleased with the varietals brought to the table. “I was truly impressed with the quality and direction of Colorado’s wine producers. The industry has come a long way since I made wine here 46 years ago! Quite a number of the wines I tasted were beyond expressing merely the region but had the character of classics.” said Warren Winiarski, 73' Cabernet Sauvignon winner of the 1976 Judgment of Paris tasting. BookCliff Vineyards won Gold medals for Malbec, Petit Verdot and Friday's Folly White. Every year, a Governor's Cup Case is assembled. This year, our own Malbec and Friday's Folly White were chosen as part of the 2014 collection. Again, congratulations to everyone who entered and we hope to try your wines soon! Great job and happy winemaking Colorado!! Cheers!
