VOTE FOR DRACAENA WINES HERE! 

Read on to see the awesome news! 

Wow! Is there anything higher than Cloud 9? Because I am on it!  This has been one heck of a weekend for Dracaena Wines.

First, on Friday, I received an inbox message on Facebook from a very good friend that said, “Congratulations on the SF Chronicle.”  I had known the results of the wine competition were going to be posted but didn’t know they already were live.  I immediately opened another tab on my computer and went to winejudging.com and scrolled through looking for our name. 

I took a deep breath and scanned across the page. Double Gold! I blinked, rubbed my eyes, and looked again. It still said Double Gold. I moved the mouse so that the arrow scanned across the column to triple confirm I wasn’t looking at the wrong line – and it was still there! Our 2015 Cabernet Franc received a Double Gold medal in the San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition! Can you say happy dance??!!

honestly, not far from truth

I spent the entire weekend with a smile on my face that stretched ear to ear. I didn’t think anything could make me happier! Then I woke up Monday morning to an email that told me I am was a finalist for the Millésima Wine Blog Awards in the Food and Wine Pairing category (United States). There are 3 finalists, and the person that receives the most votes, gets a trip to Bordeaux!

The post I submitted is one that I really am extremely proud of. I wrote the post for a #WinePW chat about Portugal. Portugal’s Political History Affects It’s Culinary and Wine Culture #WinePW, tells the story of how Portugal’s wine industry is intimately intertwined with its political history. I had chosen Cabriz Colheita Selecionada as the wine and paired it with homemade empanadas.
