Ok, so the picture quality isn’t the greatest but this came from a 2013 phone sooooo.

This was from our first ever w**e tasting at The Ruby Tap Tosa in 2013 a year after we opened with Fred Peterson from Peterson W**ery! And here we are 12 years later having another drop-in tasting with Fred at our Tosa location tonight, 10/27, from 6-7:30pm!

Peterson W**ery is a family-run Dry Creek Valley producer known for its sustainable farming and “Zero Manipulation” philosophy—low-tech, high-touch w**emaking that preserves vineyard character. Fred is the proprietor and longtime w**egrower (40+ years), who founded the w**ery and now works alongside his son, w**emaker Jamie Peterson. We’ve visited Fred many times out in Dry Creek and even went on our first Ruby Club Member trip in 2018. We never pass up a chance to have him or one of his kids stop by the bar when they are in town and taste through their delicious w**es.

Five w**es for $5 (free for Ruby Club members).
