Dick Shea Visits the Thunder Show

Last month Dick Shea was featured on Wine Library TV and sat down Gary V to taste a few Shea Vineyard wines. Dick mentioned Panther Creek Cellars’ 1994 Shea Pinot noir as the wine that put his vineyard on the map. We’re still going at it, and currently you can taste the 2006 Shea in our tasting room.

Last week we processed grapes from Shea’s 2009 harvest. The grapes taste great and, despite the below-average rainfall for the valley this year, the grapes are surprisingly plump without too much shriveling.
