Marking the occasion with 2021 releases.
In a recent letter to club members, Tommy Fogarty Jr. described the beginnings of Fogarty Winery, his father’s dream made real in Woodside.
The Fogarty family first planted Damiana Vineyard not to make wine but to preserve the land in the Williamson Act, which taxes agricultural land at a lower rate than residential. Armed with a new Caterpillar D4, Fogarty Sr. then cleared Langley Hill, Portola Springs/Baja, Windy Hill and Albutom and planted chardonnay—a lot of chardonnay. That’s when Michael Martella joined the party, and in 1981 Fogarty Winery was bonded.
At a recent geology presentation at Fogarty Winery, founding winemaker Michael Martella gave a thumbnail overview of how winegrowing changed fundamentally on his early watch. Fortunately, in the mid-1980s, they discovered trellising and vertical shoot positioning , which was being done in Oregon and France and Germany, where cool growing conditions were the norm.
