Celebrate the 4th of July In Style
July 4th is the official birthday of the Burrell Schoolhouse which turns 127 this year. We celebrate with the annual flag raising ceremony and cake!
The tasting room will be open June 30 through July 4th with a “Back to the Future” tasting and case sale special, in honor of our country’s birthday, too.
Freedom from Highway 17! San Jose/Soquel Road Now Open
For those of you who live on the coast or wish they did, you can now get to and from Burrell School on San Jose/Soquel road, which was closed due to storm damage in February of this year. It just reopened this week – hooray!! Go the “back way” to Santa Cruz and let the tourists clog up Highway 17.

Back to the Futures
Vintages 2015 and 2016 were so pathetically short (low, stingy, insert your favorite adjective here), we find ourselves in the unenviable position of not having enough wine for our usual futures program! Ack. Because Mother Nature was more generous in 2013 and 2014, we are instead offering you the opportunity to go “Back to the Futures” and taste these gems, and acquire them by the case at 50% off retail for the month of July only.
2013 Pinot Noir, $234/case
2013 Merlot, $204/case
2014 Merlot, $204/case
