We are now located in Temecula, CA in the heart
of the Temecula Wine Country about 60 miles northwest of San Diego
Ca. Currently we are growing Sangiovese, Montepulciano, Vermentino,
Aglianico, Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec varietals with a handful
of Syrah to produce our Temecula wines.
It's official! As of August 26th, 2004 we became
a Wholesale Limited Winery (BWN-CA-15027) and are able
to sell our wines. We've started a Wine Club and offer internet
as well as phone sales of our wine. As of fall 2006 we have moved
our winery from Fallbrook to Temecula and can now be open to the
public!
Coming soon our PC based Wine Club Management program.
We are currently collecting requirements on what we would like
to record and report. If you are interested in this software,
please send us your requirements. If you would like us to contact
you when the software is ready, please let us know! We are not
only a vineyard and winery, but we do software development as
well (www.cougarsoft.net).
