In Jon Bonné's own words, "Berryessa Gap, a winery that grew out of a rootstock nursery, keeps demonstrating the potential for Rioja's native grape amid Yolo's warm stretches. This effort from their top vineyard blocks has a proper smoky edge to the nose - pimenton and tamari, with roasted plum and bright berry accents. Juicy and subtle - no mean feat for a grape often misinterpreted on these shores."

Excerpt from Sunday, January 31, 2010 San Francisco Chronicle:
"One wine in particular, the 2007 Berryessa Gap Tempranillo, brought a smile. This Winters winery is helping to raise the profile of Yolo County, and the latest vintage of its Tempranillo showed ripe fruit without the scraping tannins that can attend that grape. At not even 13 percent alcohol, it's a model for where California wine could be headed."
