I had the opportunity to indulge in a Donkey and Goat release dinner at The Cleveland on Wednesday, September 18th.
It was superb. If you are not familiar with the wines made by Donkey and Goat, you should consider picking up a few bottles.
The husband-and-wife team of Jared and Tracey Brandt makes soulful, terroir-driven wines from California. Jared was on hand to discuss the wines and Donkey and Goat's approach to winemaking (see their manifesto here). Jared and Tracy were featured as one of ten wineries in Eric Asimov's New York Times article "California Wines Score Style Points."
Their wines are truly unique and communicate a gorgeous sense of place. From the Fenaughty Vineyard Syrah and skin-contacted Stone Crusher Roussane, both from El Dorado, to Carignane from Mendocino , Donkey and Goat's offerings convey a passion for making wine.
