Cellarmasters, get your
name badges! Email Laura Bengford:
badges@cellarmastersLA.org.
We must have about five pounds of unclaimed
badges left over from the past two decades, but if yours is not amongst
them (poke around at the next meeting), contact Laura and get
yours made up nice and fancy. A bargain at $7, etched and all.

The serious side of a wine competition...

Cellarmasters Home Wine Club of Los Angeles
If you're in the greater LA area
and are a winemaker or just plain curious, come to one of our meetings.
We're the real thing, hobbyists all, but way beyond hobby level. Some of our members have even
started their own commercial wineries. If you're a novice, we'll get you
up and running in no time
and you'll be amazing your friends.
If you're an active winemaker, join a community of like-minded souls, all
with one goal in mind: seeking out those incredible grapes to make into phenomenal wine.
