AUGUSTINO ESTATE & VINEYARD

Description

AUGUSTINO APPLEGATE is the second tasting venue of Augustino Estate, the label that recently made a splash with the debut of its Illinois Valley tree house tasting room. Ever since owners Reggie Boltz and Debbie Spencer opened Augustino Applegate in 2017, guests have been delighted with the newest Applegate venue. Augustino Estate is bringing its special brand of ranch chic to the big red barn on North Applegate Road. At the 2018 San Francisco Wine Competition, the 2014 Reserve Syrah was awarded “Best of Class,” and the 2014 Reserve Pinot Noir took Silver. Other recent awards include Gold and Silver medals at the 2017 Oregon Wine Experience. One of the just-released wines, the Pinot Noir “Caramella,” has been described as “candy in a bottle.”

A landmark familiar to wine country sojourners, the beautiful, historic red barn tasting room has had an extensive make-over with upscale country appointments, a player piano and a new “wine mine,” the perfect place for upcoming winemaker dinners and private group tastings. Future plans for the property include a new patio, fire pits, manicured grounds and even a path down to the Applegate River for those who feel like strolling!
