It’s time for wine
The Morgan Hill Downtown Association is busy gearing up for its annual Wine Week, a series of wine-related events occurring in the downtown area on evenings leading up to the Morgan Hill Wine Stroll on April 25. Since the main event began in 2009, the Wine Stroll has been an opportunity for local businesses to attract new visitors and for wine lovers to taste wines from local wineries, all in the downtown area of Morgan Hill.
Satori Cellars
Satori, from a Zen perspective, means "a taste of enlightenment." In the Santa Clara Valley, it also means a family-owned winery and vineyards (SA is for Sandy, TO is for Tom, and RI is for their 8-year-old son, Riley). From this 20-acre Oasis of sandy loam soil on the eastern edge of the Gilroy foothills, they create estate-grown, hand-made, love-infused “Big Reds” (Merlot, Zinfandel, Syrah, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and petite sirah).
Rapazzini Winery
Rapazzini Winery was opened in 1962 by Jon Rapazzini at the intersection of Highways 101 and 25 just south of Gilroy. Brothers, Charlie and Alex Larson, purchased the winery in 2000 where they continue to make great wines at affordable prices. They offer a wide range of 30 different wines -including 20 specific varietals and Almond Champagne.
