Iron Horse Vineyards in Sebastopol, California is a well-known winery that produces special sparkling wines for Lunar New Year celebrations. This year, they have introduced a vintage brut called “Dragon” made from a blend of chardonnay and pinot noir grown on their estate. The winery, founded in 1976 and located just 13 miles from the coast, has a rich history of producing high-quality sparkling wines that are popular among wine enthusiasts.
Iron Horse’s commitment to excellence goes beyond their wine quality as they are also dedicated to being responsible members of their community. They have created “gratitude” wines to support local causes and donate five dollars per bottle to the Redwood Empire Food Bank. In addition, the winery emphasizes the importance of sustainability and being responsible members of the community, which aligns with their mission to give back while creating delicious bubbly options for different occasions.
The release of “Dragon” marks the second vintage specifically made to celebrate the Year of the Dragon, following an initial release for export to China. This brut wine is perfect for Asian cuisine due to its dry finish and sparkling nature, making it versatile for pairing with a variety of dishes. Iron Horse believes in creating different bubbly options for different occasions and this new vintage will be highly regarded by wine lovers around the world.
