The Wine Chick returns

Welcome back friends and family to my harvest intern adventures.

I am about to embark on year 3 of my duties as a harvest intern.

I am moving locations again, heading to the heart of it all...Napa Valley! I'll be working at Kent Rasmussen Winery in St. Helena. Kent makes a variety of wines under 3 different labels including Pinot noir, Cabernet, Chardonnay, Petite Sirah and Merlot. I have sampled wines under the Ramsay label (had to do my "homework" ya know!!) but haven't tried the wines under the flagship Kent Rasmussen Winery label or the Esoterica label...that, I am sure, will come soon enough. The Rasmay wines were wonderful. Well balanced and quite enjoyable and a great value to boot. I'd run out and buy some if I were you!

I will be staying on the winery property in St. Helena at the Rasmussen guest house. The crew will be small and will include Kent, me, Quinn (an intern from Australia) and a few others that will be introduced to you, and me, later.

I have really enjoyed my past two harvest experiences making great friends and gained a lot of knowledge of the wine making process. I can't wait to see what's in store for me this time around.

Thanks for following along and I'll send updates from Napa soon.
