Blanc de Blancs Takes Silver!

Terra Sávia’s Sparkling Wine wins Silver Medal at the 34^th Annual Orange County Wine Competition. This is the largest and most comprehensive judging of California wines in the world and this year there were 2,918 entries.  We at Terra Sávia are quite pleased with the result for a wine that took two and half years to finish.

Wildlife Rescue

As some of you know, a percentage of our proceeds go to help fund wildlife rescue. Wildlife rescue centers typically fly under the radar since they don't receive government funding and they're usually discovered when one finds themselves with an injured or lost animal on their hands. These are non-profit organizations which only exist through donations so they could use all the help they can get. There are two centers within our proximity to which we support and would like to mention them here.

The Sonoma County Wildlife Rescue Center
The Woodlands Wildlife Center, Mendocino. 

Kermit the Blog

Sitting on the porch of the Clubhouse yesterday, a beautiful hummingbird was happily chugging away on one of the Salvia “Hot Lips” we bought from Kermit of Flowers By the Sea.  Initially all red flowers now display a perfectly harmonious red and white. Hopland seems to be a good climate for Hot Lips because it is growing beautifully on the grounds of the old Thatcher Inn, now known as the Hopland Inn.  One of these late afternoons, we hope to have camera in hand when the hummingbird appears again.
