Updated Vineyard Maps
Beckmen Vineyards consists of two separate vineyards with dramatically different soils and climates. We have created two maps of each of our vineyards to help our customers better understand how our wines were crafted. One version of the maps shows the various plantings of varietal clones and rootstocks, the other version lists the final wine the grapes are sourced for. These maps were just updated in February 2020.

As a table host — and previous sponsor — we loved seeing how our community can rise together to help those in need, specifically when it comes to healthcare services.

Food & Wine: Best Winter Rosés
Tom and Steve Beckmen, the owner and winemaker/general manager, both say Rosé is their favorite wine and the wine they gravitate towards no matter the setting. Generally speaking, however, more Rosé is consumed during warmer months than during the winter, which was why we were so pleasantly surprised for our 2018 PMV Grenache Rosé to be included in Ray Isle’s latest article in Food & Wine magazine, 10 Pink Wines That Are Perfect for Winter Nights.

Robb Report: 20 Stellar Wines Under $100 — and 5 Secrets for How to Find Them
At the the end of 2019 and beginning of 2020, American wine buyers were seriously concerned that a 100% tariff on wines from the European Union would create a major shift in the US wine industry. Winophiles knew this would affect their ability to purchase and enjoy European wines on a day to day basis. So, Sara Schneider, writer for the Robb Report, put together a list of incredible American wines that can hold their weight against classic European wines. We were so incredibly happy to find our 2017 PMV Block Six Syrah included in this list!

Forbes: Holiday Gift Guide 2019: The Top Biodynamic Wines
We’ve always recommended gifting wine during the holiday season. Who wouldn’t want to unwrap a bottle from a hard-to-find producer, or try a new varietal or style you’ve never tasted before? Better yet, what if the winery was certified biodynamic and you were able to enlighten the receiver to the most natural way of farming in the world? A great wine like this is impressive to receive as a gift, plus you know the receiver will be creating wonderful memories as they savor the bottle’s contents.

Decanter: Ballard Canyon AVA and must try wines
Decanter is one of the oldest and most prominent wine publications in the world. Since they are based in the UK, it is not often our wines or vineyards are featured in their articles. Thus, we were ecstatic to find not only one but three of our wines included in their recent piece “Ballard Canyon AVA and must try wines”, written by Matthew Luczy.
