Wine Club Member Spotlight

Williamson Vineyards is thankful for the loyal support of our wine club! This next year we are going to share a little about a few of our most supportive members. We can’t do what we do without our amazing wine club ambassadors. Cheers!

Dan and Candi Puga
This cute couple has been in the Sunnyslope area and have known each other since kindergarten! They have raised a beautiful family and are very active in the local community. They have been members at Williamson’s for roughly 10 years!

 How did you find Williamson Orchards & Vineyards? The current Williamson siblings were a few years younger than us in school and we also attended church with the family. One day around our 20th anniversary, we took a drive around Sunnyslope area, and were pleasantly surprised that wineries were popping up all around the area. Going to the wineries has became a weekend date tradition.

Why did you become a member? I’m not exactly sure our joining date, but it was one of our early memberships. The picture (above on left) in front of the old fruitstand shed and tasting room was May of 2015, a beautiful Mother’s Day. We later used that picture for our 25th wedding party invite!

Tell us about some of your experiences at Williamson’s. We appreciate the welcoming service even during the difficult season of covid. To this day, Williamson’s is one of our favorite stops along the Sunnyslope wine trail and we love the new conveniently located tasting room.

What are some of your favorite wines? Williamson’s provides a wide variety of wines that we both enjoy and love. Dan tends to taste the reds and I stick with the rosés or whites. Some of our favorite wines include Sangiovese, Red Blends, Petite Sirah, Dry Riesling, Blossom, and Lilly White.

Williamson Vineyards talks about 112 years of family farming

Lynsey Amundson of Idaho 6 News sat down with Beverly and asked about the family’s 112 year history of growing fruit and farming in the Sunnyslope area of Caldwell. Check out the video  and article here: After four generations, Williamson Orchards and Vineyards now handcrafting award-winning wine

To tantalize the taste buds, our tasting notes: With a rich garnet color in the glass, this wine promises depth and complexity. Bright sweet berries are immediately apparent at first sniff. The aromas evolve from fruit to a charming bramble and minerality. Flavors of dark cherry and marionberry evolve into more earthy tones on the mid-palate. The wine finishes with hints of herbaceousness and firm but supple tannins.

We recommend serving this with roasted walnuts, Stilton or Gorgonzola cheese, dark chocolates or cherry tarts.

Pre-Pruner in Action

Just because it’s winter it doesn’t mean we don’t work. Patrick and Mike have taken advantage of the good weather this week and started to do some pre-pruning. If you would like to see what’s happening in the vineyard without getting your toes cold, check out Patrick’s video. This wonderful machine does the first rough pruning cut, making it easier and more cost effective for the human pruners to get the fine tuning done.

Doce Does Us Proud!

A tasting by Wine Press Northwest of fortified wines from Washington, Oregon and Idaho was held in Summer of 2020. There were 48 Northwest producers that participated in their first large-scale judging of fortifieds since 2015, and they combined for 67 entries. Our delicious Doce rated well with their “outstanding” designation. We’ve attached their tasting notes and linked here to their full article.

Syrah remains a go-to grape for some of the Northwest’s top producers of fortified wines, and the multi-personality red Rhône grape thrives in Idaho, particularly in the hands of Greg Koenig, who crafted the Williamson family’s wines for nearly two decades. The nose of toffee, Saigon cinnamon, dried cherry and plum moves into darker flavors of cola and pomegranate syrup. There’s a pleasing bit of burn from the alcohol that’s smoothed out by the finish of Choward’s Violet candy and milk chocolate. The family of foodies at Williamson enjoy this with Black Forest Cake, blue cheese or walnuts.
