Wilson Creek Almond Sparkling Wine offers a unique and delightful taste experience. The combination of a crisp and effervescent sparkling wine with the irresistible flavor of almond creates a harmonious and indulgent flavor profile. When you take a sip, you’ll be greeted with a subtle almond aroma, followed by a smooth and creamy mouthfeel on your palate. The bubbles add a refreshing and lively sensation, enhancing the overall taste experience. The almond flavor is present but not overpowering, allowing the sparkling wine’s elegance to shine through. The result is a delicious and balanced blend that is both refreshing and satisfying.

 

A Refreshing Sparkling Wine Infused with Natural Almond Flavors

This Almond Sparkling is made with the Charmat method. It is a popular technique used in the production of sparkling wines. The Charmat method is often favored for its efficiency and ability to produce sparkling wines with fresh, fruity characteristics. It is commonly used for wines that are intended to be consumed while young and vibrant.

 

In the Charmat method, the secondary fermentation, which creates the bubbles in sparkling wine, takes place in large, pressurized stainless steel tanks rather than individual bottles. The process begins with the creation of the base wine. Grapes are harvested and pressed to extract the juice, which undergoes fermentation to convert the natural sugars into alcohol. This produces a still wine with relatively low alcohol content. The base wine is then transferred to a large, sealed, and pressurized tank. The base wine undergoes a secondary fermentation in stainless steel tanks, a process that creates the wine’s signature effervescence. The winemakers then infuse the wine with natural almond flavors, adding that special twist that makes it truly unique. I know you are wondering…. Does Wilson Creek Almond Sparkling Wine actually contain almonds? No, the wine gets its name from the natural almond flavors infused into the wine during the production process. These flavors are added to create the distinct taste profile of almond, providing a unique and enjoyable drinking experience. Rest assured that Wilson Creek Almond Sparkling Wine is suitable for individuals with nut allergies, as it does not contain real almonds. The wine is then bottled under pressure, ensuring that the carbon dioxide remains dissolved in the wine. This helps preserve the wine’s effervescence.

Father’s Day is just around the corner, and if you’re scrambling to find the perfect gift for dad, we have some suggestions for you. If he tolerates wine at best and would much rather have a cold beer in his hand, tending the BBQ and watching a game on TV during that special day. Fear not, I have three foolproof ways to entice your father to join the family for a great day of wine tasting at Wilson Creek Winery.

 

1. Bribery: Let’s face it, most dads can be swayed with the promise of a good meal. I know I can, just say “RIB-EYE” and you got me. Creekside Grille at Wilson Creek serves delicious food to pair with wine. My favorite is the Hanger Steak grilled medium rare. Tell dad that you’ll treat him to lunch at the Grille if he agrees to come wine tasting. And if that doesn’t work, they serve beer in
the Grille.

 

2. Reverse Psychology: Sometimes, the best way to get your dad to do something is to tell him he can’t do it. Use reverse psychology by telling your dad that wine tasting is not for him, that its way too much for him beyond his abilities, and that he should just stick to his beer. Trust me, he’ll be intrigued by the challenge and will want to prove you wrong. And if he still doesn’t enjoy his time wine tasting, at least he’ll have the satisfaction of saying “I told you so.” Plus, Creekside Grille serves beer.

 

3. The Dad Joke Approach: Dads love a good joke, so why not use that to your advantage? Tell a good Dad wine joke like “How do you know if a wine is good?” Look at the winemaker if he drinks wine out of an old tire – you know it’s a GOODYEAR.” He’ll appreciate the humor and may even be curious enough to try the wine. Plus, Creekside Grille serves beer. So, there you have it, three ways to entice your dad to go wine tasting with the family this Father’s Day. And if all else fails, just remind him that spending time with his favorite child (you, of course) is the best gift of all. Plus, Creekside Grille serves beer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There seems to be a barrage of negative environmental news lately, such as the alarming rate of losing a species on Earth every 10 minutes. Additionally, there is an estimation that only about 40 to 60 harvests are left while our current agricultural systems can provide a sustainable food supply. Unfortunately, there are little to no prospects for technological fixes such as genetically modified organisms and agricultural chemistry, which, despite their promises, have actually greatly accelerated the degradation of our life-supporting biological systems.

It would be easy to understand an attitude of apathy from young people based on tThe highly degraded commons of our life supporting ecosystems and a functional worldview that we have handed them, after the mildest climate and the great potential of human intellectual achievement in the history of mankind.

It would be easy to understand but not what you would find if you went into the Temecula Valley High School and other schools in our region. What you would find his students who in 2019 got together with supportive and innovative faculty members Megan Mahan and Toby Brandon and started a Regenerative Agriculture Club. While other students were working on their thespian, musical, or athletic abilities, these students decided to work on regenerating the future for all.

In 2019 students from the Temecula Valley High School got together with supportive faculty members and administration and said that they wanted to start learning about the concepts of regenerative agriculture which not only include the regeneration of basic life supporting biological systems but also includes all elements of the Eco, the whole house which includes biology, economics, politics, and social and organizational theory. The students soon realized that the best method of learning is hands on application, and the best application is in your own backyard. They looked to the hillside behind the Temecula Valley High School,  which had been largely abandoned except for an infamously challenging cross country field trail through the disrupted soils that no longer even supported natives plant or animal species. They envisioned an the evolving learning laboratory in their backyard where they could see the application of regenerative principles develop over time in person and share with their fellow students.

These students, with assistance and guidance from high school Science faculty members Meghan Manion and Tobey Brannon, developed a concept for the hillside project. They reached out to industry professionals to develop this hillside regenerative agricultural learning laboratory. The students recruited assistance from Greg Pennyroyal, Professor of Viticulture at Mount San Jacinto College (MSJC), Vineyard Manager,  and practitioner of regenerative viticulture at Wilson Creek Winery. Additionally, they sought help from, Tom Curry, regenerative olive Grove manager and local food entrepreneur, and Leah Di Bernardo, founder and owner of EAT marketplace, a farm to table restaurant, and champion of high nutrient density food and public health in our region.

During the 2020 school year, the students began conducting biological surveys investigating regulatory and technical aspects of developing their hillside regenerative outdoor laboratory project. They also began to gather institutional, political, and fiscal support for their proposal. Over the next two years, the students developed a systematic approach to learning what is necessary for a project of this scale, including the invaluable life skill of tenacity. They overcame numerous financial, bureaucratic, and technical barriers that any major project encounters, and did not let anyone interfere with their dreams.

The Regenerative Agriculture Club has over 100 members, and  has been featured on an ABC News segment. They have organized several fundraisers, and had a high level meeting with the staff of MSJC College, including with John Kemp and leading technical experts from Advancing Eco Agriculture. The club has received funding from the Specialized Secondary Program grant from the California Department of Food and Agriculture. The high school now has an approved curriculum for a regenerative agriculture high school science program and is coordinating with the development of a program offering an AS degree in regenerative System theory for entrepreneurs and social change, and Regenerative Agriculture.

During Spring Break in May 2023, the land clearing was finished, and irrigation and infrastructure systems are being installed with the direct involvement of the students, who are involved in all aspects of this project. 

A basic tenant of systems theory-based ecological science is that nature constantly innovates, launches, reevaluates, and re-innovates. This is the essence of an organizational theory called Agile Management, which like many things we “discover” are actually just processes of nature we have wisely learned to adopt. The organization and execution of this project follows this basic environmental principle and will be constantly adapting,  learning, and improving. The founding members of the regenerative AG club are also evolving and learning. They have all been accepted to Berkeley or Davis to study environmental sciences. Their acceptance is largely credited to their innovative work on the regenerative AG hillside project.
