Loma Prieta Finds Gold
In times gone
past they headed to California to dig for gold. Now it’s their wines that are
finding gold. Loma Prieta winery’s gold rush is led by its Pinotage. The medal count
for the 2010 Pinotage so far this year is eleven Golds, and it also won Best of
Class Red Vinifera Varietal for the second year running at the Indy International
Wine Competition.

The winning 2010
Pinotage, as with their previous vintages, comes from the Amorosa Vineyard in
Lodi, but owner Paul Kemp’s future plans include releasing four separate single
vineyard Pinotages. This year he is bottling his first Estate wine from his own
vineyard, as well as from the Amorosa Vineyard in Lodi, and he’s also made wines from grapes grown in Karma
Vineyard, Lodi and Sierra Ridge, Amador County.
