Sacramento has just released the<br />

most prestigious wine competition, and<br />
Southern California Temecula Valley’s<br />
South Coast Winery Resort & Spa has<br />
been named the <strong>2016</strong> California Golden<br />
State Winery of the Year.<br />
Records were<br />

at the California<br />
State Fair Commercial<br />
Wine<br />
Competition as<br />
South Coast Winery<br />
was the first<br />
and only winery<br />
in the competition’s<br />
history to be presented with a four-time<br />
championship, naming it the <strong>2016</strong> California<br />
Golden State Winery of the Year.<br />
South Coast Winery brought home the<br />

Year award to its Southern California<br />
Temecula Valley home in 2008 and<br />
then followed it up with a back-to-back<br />
win in 2009. It earned the top title in<br />
the California State competition again<br />
in 2013 and now celebrates its fourth<br />
win for <strong>2016</strong>.<br />

State Wine Competition premieres only<br />
wines made with fruit grown in California;<br />
and there were 2,854 wines judged<br />
from 750 of the state’s top wineries<br />
during this year’s competition.<br />
“South Coast Winery is truly honored<br />
to be bringing this recognition to<br />
Temecula Valley Wine Country, especially<br />
with only<br />
13 years of wine<br />
production. This<br />
award is a reflection<br />
of the dedication<br />
and the collaboration<br />
between our<br />
soil and vines, the<br />
vineyard team and<br />
our talented winemakers.<br />
I’m humbled to be a part of it,”<br />

the Southern California winery resort.<br />
