Akash Winery
|
|
The history of Akash begins with a family — a mom, dad, and son with a vision. A photo of a vineyard, perched on a fireplace mantel 20 years ago, embodied the Patel family dream.
In 2010, that vision took root in the sandy loam of the beautiful Temecula Valley, when they purchased a 20-acre parcel of prime vineyard land.
Little did they know — Nalini, Ray, and their son Akash — that their dream would grow exponentially, just like the vines they planted on Calle Callento.
Willpower and manpower, friends and extended family, helped guide them along the way. A winery and tasting room stocked with award-winning wines, season upon season of events and activities, and the joy of counting loyal customers among their ever-growing family proved to be more gratifying than they could have imagined.
Working alongside renowned winemaker Renato Sais, the Patels craft wines that are both unique and familiar. Two distinct labels, one sourced from their meticulously farmed estate vineyards and the other from neighboring vines, offer something for every palate.
Contemporary, eye-catching labels signify that theirs is not a winery stuck in the dark ages. Rather, it is a vibrant, living dream that continues to grow and evolve over time.

Old-vine Johannisberg Riesling
Andre Tchelistcheff, the legendary dean of american winemakers once wrote that he saw Temecula as the place to
produce one of the greatest Rieslings. He cited two reasons: Riesling matures there very late, as it matures in the upper
Rhine. And they are grown in gravelly, light, granitic soils which are only available there. Many of Temecula's best
winemakers consider Yakut Vineyards Rieslings as the premier Riesling grapes of Temecula. The Riesling grapes have
the advantage of retaining their acidity while achieving high levels of sugar. This fact lead to the production of wines
with long aging potential. Riesling has a sweet,spicy flavor, with a taste of peaches and apricot. Its crisp acidity results in
a well balanced wine, easy to drink as an aperitif or as a complement to fish or poultry. Treat yourself to a bottle of this
excelent wine.

Old-vine Sauvignon Blanc
This treasured wine, interchangeably called Sauvignon Blanc or Fume Blanc, is made from Yakut Vineyards' forty year
old vines. The Red Barn's Sauvignon Blanc is blended with only 1% Viognier to enhance its freshness. Otherwise it is totally
Sauvignon Blanc. So, order a bottle or a case of this perfect wine and savor its distinctive flavors.
