Kyle Schlachter, of the Colorado Wine Press, contributes to Jeff Leve's The Wine Cellar Insider: a review on the history and geography of Colorado Wine. Settembre Cellars is included on Kyle's list of wineries producing some of the best wines in the state.

Governor John Hickenlooper proclaimed the week of June 5 Colorado Wine Week. The Denver Post recommends five bottles from across the state, including our 2009 Riesling, which express "Colorado's geography and sensibility in its own unique way. None could have been made anywhere else".

Ron Marks, interviews Settembre Cellars Winemaker, Blake Eliasson, in a two part posting on his Blog "Wine, Pleasure, Beauty". As the title suggests Ron takes a slightly more hedonistic approach to wine but in a manner which does not compromise depth. The sensory and cognitive pleasures of wine. The result: thought provoking questions that were a pleasure to mull over and continue to meditate upon.

Mark Antonation, the Denver Drinks Examiner, made the trek to Boulder earlier this summer with his wife Amy to taste our wines at the Gallery Kunst event. A timely post: Settembre is harvest month! As Mark explained, sorting is one of the most crucial aspects of our winemaking process and you can be a part of the 2009 Vintage.

Claire Walter, a local food and wine blogger, was in attendance at a wine tasting event which included Settembre Cellars. Glenn Donharl organized the Rose tasting in which he included our 2007 Sangiovese Rosato along with Rose wines from Spain, Italy, France, and Argentina. It was exciting to have our wine included in a blind tasting! We paired our wine with a recipe introduced to us by Blake's sister: a salsa with black beans, mango, avocado, and queso blanco.
