Lions Peak Vineyard has had an excellent start this 2010 year. The long awaited rains have returned and the vineyard and the hillsides are exceptionally green. The views are spectacular this time of the year and not to be missed! The vines have been pruned and the canes tied. To sit out on the veranda and see Mother Nature at work is truly a spiritual experience. The roses are starting to bloom and the lavender is beginning its new season. Of course, this is during the day; however, the nights are equally extraordinary. When you view a full moon: see the stars in their full magnitude, and the crickets are chirping is what dreams are made of.
Lions Peak Tasting Room has now been at our Solvang location for (6) six years. It is amazing how time seems to pass by so rapidly. With this being said, the 2010-year is starting off with new beginnings. Our Valentine weekend was fantastic, and it is just the beginning of the events that LP is planning for the 2010 calendar year. From the Taste of Solvang, Easter, Memorial Weekend open house, the 4th of July to the autumn and winter activities, LP is opening our doors for wonderful events.
Our Solvang Tasting Room is opened seven days a week with extended hours on the weekends and for special weekend events. Lions Peak Spring Calendar returns with weekday hours returning to 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Mary, Kathi, Natasha, and Jennifer enjoy talking to you about Lions Peak, wine, music, the arts, or we love to hear about the adventures of your life. We welcome you to have a premium or reserve tasting or try our new added feature…Lions Peak Wine by the Glass! We are here to serve you and ensure that you have a great time!
TASTING ROOM RENOVATION
The LP Staff is having a great time at the tasting room with all of our special friends of LP! The entire Tasting Room has been completely renovated, and we were ready for Valentine’s Weekend. Our regulars were astonished with the new look at Lions Peak. The tasting room has two wine bars and special seating for our customers that wish to have a wine by the glass. With our new social media kiosk tasters were checking out Lions Peak Wine Blog , Twittering, Facebook, and signing up to be on LP’s email list.

The new Social Media Kiosk allows our tasters to go online at the time while they are at the Tasting Room and leave their comments, upload your pictures, or just read about the latest news with Lions Peak’s Vineyard, Winery, or the Tasting Room. Should you not make to the tasting room you can still view our new toys on Lions Peak’s web site: www.lionspeakwine.com.
TASTE OF SOLVANG
The annual Taste of Solvang weekend was Lions Peak’s kickoff for the arrival of the spring season. Friday evening’s event featured a wonderful array of desserts from restaurants, chocolate confectionaries, and merchants. The desserts were paired with wines from Solvang wine tasting rooms and wine shops. Lions Peak served our tasters our wonderful Late Harvest Viognier, Ports, Rose, Chardonnay, and Estate Cabernet.

LIONS PEAK HOLIDAY WINE CLUB SHIPMENT NEWS LETTER
Dear Wine Club Members,
As the holidays and the end of 2009 approaches, we send to you our final package of wines that we deem are a very special collection. Lions Peak invites you to open each bottle and savor it knowing that each wine was created with love and passion for the very art of fine wine making.
From the very first vintage that Lions Peak produced, our legacy of creating synergy between the vineyard and the fine wine that we have produced has existed.
Lions Peak’s first commercial vintage was our 1994. We still have a few remaining bottles of the 1994 along with the 1995, 1996, and 1997 and during our Holiday Season open house we invite you to join us and share our special legacy in remembrance of all that have dedicated their lives to the art of fine winemaking.
Included in your shipment is our customary bottle of Champagne, 1998, 1999, Cabernet Sauvignon, 2002 Proprietor’s Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, 2001 Lionnesse, and 2002 Late Harvest Viognier. All of the wines that we have included in your shipment are very limited; therefore, should you enjoy a particular wine please contact us as soon as possible to verify that we have any remaining inventory.
With this statement…. I leave you with the philosophy Lions Peak began in 1994 with LP’s first commercial release….
L I ON S P E A K
Cabernet Sauvignon
We at Lions Peak believe that behind every great man there is a woman. As in Jacques-Laurent Agasse’s painting Lion and Lioness, the lioness is recognized as a major strength to the king of the animal kingdom. Whether it be lion or man, he does not stand along to achieve success. In the same tradition behind every great wine there is a noteworthy vineyard. The Grapes for our 100% Cabernet Sauvignon were grown on the Lions Peak Vineyards.
We welcome you to join Lulu, Mary, Kathy, and myself to celebrate the Holiday Season every Saturday from Thanksgiving until New Years.Come taste Lions Peak’s wines and share your special holiday memories with our Lions Peak Family.
With deep appreciation and gratitude
