Chelsea Prince - "Rock & Vine"

Rock and Vine reveals the lives and innovations of next generation changemakers in California’s wine country. In the 70s and 80s, winemaking started to become a legitimate profession in California. Winemakers, particularly in Northern California, showed the might of Napa and Sonoma wines, made from its rocky and diverse soils. In the 90s, American wine became more extravagent and winemakers became icons. Now, the children and grandchildren of those early winemakers have matured and are crafting their own convivial brands with less pomp and better circumstances. Through eleven unforgettable stories, author Chelsea Prince and photographer Mary Steinbacher introduce talented wine industry trailblazers who are primed to perpetuate and evolve the legacy of Napa and Sonoma.


 Tom Tiburzi  - Winemaker - Domaine Chandon & Newton 

When we created our Crémant, Sparkling Winemaker Tom Tiburzi was inspired by our Club members’ passion for great wines. And with the new release, he’s decided to go a step further: “Chandon Crémant was the first wine made especially for the Club, so to honor our Club members, this unique wine will now be named for them.”  “Our Club members are a really dedicated group,” explains Tom. “Many of them visit the winery, and they like to connect the great experience they have here with drinking our wines at home. So we wanted to give them something special: a wine in their honor that is truly different from all our other wines.”
