Gary and Marcy Eberle accept the 2013 WInery of the Year award.

The Central Coast Wine Competition announced Eberle Winery as the 2013 Winery of the Year at the California Mid-State Fair’s annual Cattlemen and Farmer’s Day. The Winery of the Year award seeks to recognize the winery that presented the most exceptional selection of wines at the Central Coast Wine Competition.

Criteria for selection of the Winery of the Year award required a minimum number of five entries and a ratio based on results criteria. Eberle Winery’s award winning vintages include the 2011 Cotes-du-Robles Blanc, 2012 Muscat Canelli and 2012 Viognier as Gold Medals and Best of Classes and the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon earned a Gold Medal. The 2012 Chardonnay, 2011 Syrah, 2010 Barbera and the 2010 Zinfandel received silver medals and the 2010 Sangiovese, 2009 Cotes-du-Robles and 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon/Syrah received Bronze Medals.

Judges this year remarked the overall quality of wines entered were superb and highly impressive. “The Grenache Blancs showing at the CCWC are terrific food wines and will soon make their mark as Central Coast white wines,” noted judge Michael Cervin.

The 2013 Central Coast Wine Competition featured wines entered from wineries as far south as Temecula and as north as Healdsburg. Any wines produced from grapes grown in the Central Coast appellation of the American Viticulture Area (AVA), which stretches from San Francisco County to Santa Barbara County, and Ventura County were eligible to be entered. The Central Coast AVA produces 15% of the state’s total wine grape production and encompasses over 360 wineries.

The Central Coast Wine Competition is proud to feature the outstanding wines of Eberle Winery. The display is currently on exhibit at the Ventura County Fair and will debut at the Monterey County Fair on Wednesday, August 28, 2013.
