Thrilled to be featured by Tablehopper in their most recent newsletter!

Marcia writes a fabulous newsletter on all things delicious and delightful, and I encourage everyone to sign up for her wonderful reviews and recommendations! Here’s the link to read the newsletter in full:

And here’s the glowing write up highlighting the Dalya Estate:
“the dream continued all weekend long during my stay at The Dalya Estate (just minutes from Forestville), and while I’m going to share more about this breathtaking property very soon, for now, let me tell you, it was a Sonoma paradise that I had to literally pry myself away from (knowing I had to get home to feed Fortuna her dinner was a powerful motivator). From the blooming flowers and gorgeous landscaping, to the expansive home’s open layout and tranquil view of neighboring vineyards (and a perfectly situated lap pool), it was such a peaceful and elegant retreat. I felt myself fully relax and exhale for the first time in a while. I’m so glad I left my laptop at home and got to unplug for a weekend. Grazie mille, cara Dalya, you are a gracious host!”

I am absolutely thrilled to announce that the inaugural release of the 2021 Dalya Estate Chardonnay for Mascarin Family Wines has been awarded a DOUBLE GOLD in the esteemed San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition for 2025.

This is the largest competition for North American wines!

More than fifty judges assessed over 5,500 wines from 950+ wineries representing various North American wine regions, and selected the Dalya Estate Chardonnay for Mascarin Family Wines as an elite DOUBLE GOLD winner.

I am so proud of the wine the Dalya Estate Vineyard produces, and so very fortunate to work with Mascarin Family Wines' exceptionally talented winemaker, Matt Taylor. Many thanks to Eric Neil/Alta Vineyard Management and Adrien Gomez for their conscientious attentions and vineyard management all year. Congratulations to Mascarin Family Wines and owner, Mia Mascarin, on this fabulous achievement!
