  • Time for another winery tour in Northern California! In this episode of my Journey Across The West I head to Livermore, CA. This is where wine truly began in Northern California! Some of California's oldest standing, family own wineries still live here, including the famous Conacnnon Winery. The Iconic house is a can't miss. The wine made there itself is beyond the competition.
    Hidden amongst the greats though are amazing hidden gems. For example, if you are a Cabernet Sauvignon fan then, McGrail Vineyards is for you, Considered a Cab House, Come with me as I feast on a variety of Cabernets!! Also if you are in need of both a great glass of wine and some delicious wood fired pizza then, Garre Winery is for you!

    The red wines look great. The cabs and merlots of the first winery looks great. Plus Garre winery pizza looks absolutely delicious. Concannon Winery looks very nice too. Seems like a great day out.

    The history is so cool I never knew that’s exactly where wind started in California. And that pizza looks amazing. I think I definitely like Concannon the best. I have a little bit of Irish in me too, and I love that house that can be rented out. Great video!

      Thanks Christy, it's an amazing area and so far removed from Napa. Less crowds and the wine is just as good.

    Chocolate and Cab... sounds like perfection to me. Made me laugh how your dad was critiquing your tasting note delivery. I need some pizza now - your videos should not be watched on an empty stomach! The estate house kind of reminds me of the house from Psycho - but in a much more beautiful setting!

    We've always wanted to check out vineyards out there. We've visited a bunch here in the midwest. We were just down in Kentucky last month and stopped at a couple distilleries and did bourbon tours and tastings. That was cool. Nice video showcasing the valley. Makes us want to visit even more!

    It's WentE not Went. Syrah and Petite Sirah tastes different because they are different grapes. When James Concannon bought the cuttings of Petite Sirah he thought he bought Syrah. However the rest of the world knows Petite Sirah as Durif who was the botanist who crossed bread Syrah grapes with Peloursin.

      I will say that I paced myself but, I was relatively buzzed by the end of the third spot. 😂 thankfully I came with a driver (aka my dad)
