Red Wine Sweepstakes Winner
On Saturday, thousands of Wine Oh’s from across the country packed Fort Mason in San Francisco for the public tasting of the largest competition of American wines in the world. This year, the stakes were even higher for winemakers as the 2012 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition had a record breaking 5,500 entries. The competition was steep but not too steep for this Livermore winery to take the lead.
