Join Laraine Winery for Their Grand Re-Opening This Saturday April 5th!

Murphys, CA.....Laraine Winery, one of the Sierra Foothills premier boutique wineries, announces the Grand Re-Opening of its newly refurbished tasting room to the public on Saturday, April 5th from 11am -5pm. Grand Opening festivities will include wine tasting of current Laraine wines including their acclaimed 2004 Syrah and 2005 Sangiovese. Guests may also enjoy paired appetizers in the tasting room, barrel tastings, music, and special offers on select wines and gifts......



Owners David and Laraine Gerber have been working very hard these past few months to refurbish their old farmhouse tasting room and grounds. “We wanted to create an atmosphere in the tasting room that is warm, inviting and as sophisticated as our wines,” comments Laraine. “However, because the setting is so idyllic, our main priority has always been to preserve the peace, beauty and tranquility of this property for our patrons and friends.”

Knowledgeable and friendly staff, antique furniture, vine­yard photography, and a solid pine wood bar bring the new space to life. For the Hollywood enthusiasts among us, the new tasting room also boasts an impressive collection of television and film memorabilia. There is even a replica of the gold star that David Gerber, a well known and Emmy award winning Producer, was awarded 2 years ago on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

The tasting room and surrounding vineyards will also be the site for many new special events including wine release parties, winemaker dinners, wine and cheese pairings, and holiday festivities. “We intend to begin a very active events program here at the winery,” says Helen Webster, the new General Manager for Laraine Winery. “The demand for event facilities is very high in this area and our property is the perfect setting for weddings, private parties, and small corporate events.”

The scenic tasting room, surrounded by 100 acres of estate vineyards, has been a popular destination throughout the years for both visitors and locals alike. With the latest improvements, there is little doubt that it will continue to be a favorite for those on the wine-tasting circuit.
