MARCH 20, 2016
Welcome to the Family Winemakers
of California’s Tasting at Del Mar!
This tasting marks the return of Family
Winemakers to the San Diego area and we’re
pleased to be back. Our signature trade and
consumer tasting was last held at Del Mar in
2103. We’ve been doing tastings for 26 years and
it’s a “family tradition.” The recession changed
the way wine is marketed, but the simple fact is
that people have to taste the wine to appreciate
it and then buy it. This tasting is a unique chance
to discover wines from a diverse group of close
to 90 California wineries that are really focused
on the Southern California market. Twenty
wineries will be pouring for the first time at our
event.
FWC is the political and policy voice for
small family-owned wineries. We lobbied drink
taxes, water issues, fees, warning labels, social
media, labor issues and farming regulations this
past year at the State Capitol and regulatory
agencies. Continuing Pierce’s Disease and Red
Blotch research remain a top of our members.
We also started our 2nd year in boosting wine
education and sales in China. Consumers enjoy
greater choice in California wines across the U.S.
because of our advocacy; just ask consumers in
South Dakota, the newest open state. Artistry
and passion are the hallmark of FWC wineries
at these events and I’m sure you’ll taste it in your
glass.
Wonderful sponsors and vendors make this
event a reality with their financial support and
participation. We appreciate and thank them!
Our heartiest thanks are to you, our customers.
Cheers, and enjoy the wines!

Inside the Program
The program is designed to help you navigate
and enjoy a large tasting. We’ve put the Varietal
Map upfront listing all the varieties by winery so it’s
handy. Each winery entry has all the information
you’ll need to contact them to order wine or find
out more about the wines you taste.
Take advantage of this tasting to order wines
you discover. Wineries will take an order to
be filled by the winery after the tasting.
Program Key
NEW identifies wineries that are pouring for the
first time at an FWC Tasting.
Range is the retail pricing per bottle of the wines
being poured at the tasting.
The program was printed several weeks before the tasting
and does not include any late cancellations or additions. We
apologize for any inconsistencies.
Inside Wyland Center
Where to begin? Because the wineries at this
tasting come from many different winegrowing
areas in California, and pour multiple varietals,
we’ve chosen to organize them alphabetically
starting on right side of the room with the letter K.

Family Winemakers
. . .fighting for small, family-owned wineries
Small, family-owned wine producers across the
state are the foundation of Family Winemakers of
California. Formed in 1990 to lobby for the rights
of its members to freely produce, market and sell
their products, we currently represent over 350
producers.
Direct-to-consumer sales blossomed after the
U.S. Supreme Court issued its ruling in Granholm v.
Heald. Now consumers in 43 states have a broader
choice in wine. . .and it’s because FWC provided
key funding and steered the litigation battle.
FWC has worked to keep taxes and fees on wine
from rising, created new wine sales opportunities
like farmers markets and event permits, stopped
vine-killing pests, pushed for smart water rules,
fought misguided labeling, and lobbied to keep state
alcohol law up-to-date on the use of technology.
Our legislative and regulatory work is augmented
by the tastings we organize for our members to help
them succeed in a highly competitive marketplace.
This is our 26th year hosting events in the state.
FWC’s first tasting was held in 1991 in San
Francisco and any of our members pour at our
Bay Area tasting, as well as in Southern California.
The wineries at these tastings are dedicated to
producing the finest wines they can. You’ll taste
their passion captured in each bottle.
Family Winemakers ... Taste California!
San Francisco here we come!
Over 125 wineries pouring great wine from
across California at Pier 27 in San Francisco our 26th Annual Tasting!
