Wine is loved and enjoyed by millions of people around the world, yet only thousands know the art and craft of producing wine, and fewer still know how to create award winning wines that provide a heightened sense of artistry and subtlety of flavor. The Peninsula Beverly Hills has brought together not one, but two of the world’s great wine makers to host a Wine Maker Dinner in California; Joe Hurliman of Herzog Wine Cellars (Oxnard, California) and Gilad Flam of Flam Winery (Judean Hills, Israel). The evening promises a unique and intimate view into experiences and insights of theses great winemakers.

Rosh Hashanah, literally meaning Head of The Year, is the Jewish celebration of New Year according to the Jewish calendar, which changes its date on the traditional calendar every year but this year is celebrated from September 4th until September 6th. It is a two day celebration of the anniversary of Adam and Eve’s creation, and as with many celebrations, wine features as part of the traditional Kiddush refreshments. Herzog Wine Cellars, California’s finest winery, have released three Rosh Hashanah recommendations for this special time.

With summer starting to subside, the holiday season is fast approaching, with special occasions aplenty for people to look forward to.

Now in its 74th year, the Los Angles International Wine Competition is considered to be one of the most prestigious wine-tasting events in the United States. The competition features an esteemed panel of judges, and uses a blind-tasting approach that has remained foundational to the competition’s professionalism for over 7 decades. The competition was held May 15-16 at the Fairplex in Pomona, CA, and saw Herzog Wine Cellars take home a gold medal for the 2011 Herzog Special Reserve Russian River Valley Chardonnay.

The Ventura County Wine Trail brings the 6th annual Wine Trail Celebration to Ventura County, June 20th, 2013. The festival will be held at The Collection Riverpark's outdoor event center on the all new Park View Court, a soon to be opened tree lined street featuring beautiful artwork by Michael Amesuca. The festival will feature more than 17 of Ventura County’s local boutique wineries; each sharing their latest releases. Herzog Wine Cellars is due to be among them, showcasing their latest wines for tasting.

For those that like the finer things in life, few things go together better than fine art and fine wine, and yet the combination is surprisingly rare. Now, Herzog Wine Cellars are allowing their guests to partake in both simultaneously, hosting a combined art class and wine tasting so the creative juices can flow like the wine.

Wineries and vineyards specialize in the creation of wine, and this industry has burgeoned in Southern California in particular. But the wineries are not simply manufacturers, but an amazing place to visit on a sunny afternoon or a balmy summer evening. Of all the wineries in California Herzog Wine Cellars, which creates wine in Ventura County, has distinguished itself as a must-visit venue both for its incredible wines and calendar of exciting events. This Memorial Day at 6pm, May 26th, Herzog Wine Cellars present Hollywood U2 for a special winery concert in a specially created open air venue.

Herzog Winery can reasonably stake a claim to being the best winery in California, not solely because of its range of award winning wines or because of its heritage stemming back to European royalty, but because of its engagement with the public through exciting events and open days. The open days allow everyone to embrace the art and craft of fine wine along with dining and events that open up appreciation of the finer things in life to all.
