We invite you to savor the stories, landscapes, and craft of Sonoma wine on Wednesday, September 16th, from 5 PM to 7 PM for an inviting flight night with Matt Licklider of LIOCO Winery. This is a unique opportunity to meet the winemaker, hear the thinking behind the wines, and discover the distinctive character of Sonoma wines firsthand.
LIOCO is owned and operated by husband-wife duo Matt and Sara Licklider and their small team, who spend the majority of their time lost in the wilds of California. With no estate vineyards of its own, LIOCO sources fruit from small, family-owned ranches spread across four hundred miles and five counties. The LIOCO team believes there is a finite number of truly great vineyard sites in every region — locations with the magic combination of soil, sun, temperature, water, aspect, flora, and fauna.
That belief guides each bottle: every wine from LIOCO features cartography as art, reflecting the passion that led the winery to hunt down California’s best plots of land like the Grand Cru plots of Burgundy. Expect wines with freshness, nuance, and a strong sense of origin—bottles that invite you to slow down, taste closely, and follow the map from vineyard to glass.
Next time you visit Sonoma you can find LIOCO in Healdsburg, California, where they are spinning records in their Euro-wine-bar-inspired tasting room. However, next Wednesday they are coming to us with a flight of five wines, and an evening of conversation and discovery with this wonderful winemaker.
