We really enjoyed the tasting at this casual and welcoming place off the main square in Sonoma. Â "Ben the Bachelor," a co-founder and former star of ABC's "The Bachelor," poured for us. Â He was very friendly and unassuming and answered all of our questions. Â He was working very hard as the sole server when we were there.
The wine was good. Â The 2011 Pinot Noir was excellent and underrated at 90.
Envolve was was a great time. Â Great story of three young guys from wine families branching out to do their own thing.
It might have been one of the most educational wine experiences I've had as Mike Benziger answered the MANY questions that my lady and I peppered him with. Â We walked away with a couple bottles that we'll enjoy along with the memories.
Had a phenomenal time at Envolve! Â Found this gem on a wine blog and fell in love with the story of this young winery...5 yrs old, started by two life long friends and employees of family/friends. Â We booked the Partners Tasting pretty last minute ($40 per person) and Mike, one of the founders,was gracious enough to walk us through 6 or 7 great Envolve and Epilogue wines and answer our many questions regarding the wine business, the beginnings of the company, etc. Â The wines are spectacular: birthed with a lot of thoughtfulness, blood, sweet and tears and I found a Chardonnay and Savignon Blanc that I LOVED and we decided to join the wine club because we loved our visit so much. Â
This place is a MUST visit, as well as the Sonoma square area where it sits. Â Book online and Enjoy!!
