Last Friday we received over 15 tons of plums, and we crushed them all on Saturday. They are all fermenting beautifully; should be a great year for Christmas Plum.

About Me

- I grew up here on my dad's farm that we turned into the Sainte Genevieve Winery over 20 years ago. I'm the educated enologist and he's the experienced farmer/business man. We try to treat the land and the wine with kindness, like a member of our family(sometimes we treat them nicer than family ;)) This is our little place on earth, and I thought you might enjoy seeing it from my perspective.

My wife and I just shared a bottle of the Christmas Plum. I've never been a fruit wine drinker before, but we both LOVE this wine. Too bad it is only available seasonally! We will definitely be watching for it next November. We are even talking about driving up to the winery to tour and buy a case or two when it comes out in 2010.
Thank you! :)
Scott,
I'm glad you like the wine so much. It is very popular. We usually release the new Christmas Plum on Veteran's Day. Hope to see you in November!
