From a CA GROWN<\/a> news release<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This September there\u2019s more than one reason to raise a glass. September 1 kicked off California Wine Month, officially designated by the California State Legislature<\/a> as a statewide recognition of one of the world\u2019s most iconic winegrowing regions. And on September 9, the Golden State marks its 175th birthday.
\u00a0
\u201cCalifornia Wine Month is a celebration of the people, places and traditions that make our wines truly unique,\u201d said Robert P. Koch, president and CEO of Wine Institute. \u201cCalifornia wine brings people together across cultures and generations, and behind every bottle is a community that supports more than 1.1 million U.S. jobs and contributes $170 billion to the economy. This month is a reminder of how deeply rooted wine is in our state\u2019s identity and how vital it is to our future.\u201d
\u00a0
Throughout September, wineries across the Golden State are hosting California Wine Month events and activities<\/strong><\/a>, from behind-the-scenes harvest tours and grape stomps to wine and food festivals.
\u00a0
\u00a0\u201cCalifornia Wine Month shines a light on the hard work and heritage of our state\u2019s winegrowers, many of them multigenerational farmers who care deeply about their land, their communities and the future,\u201d said Karen Ross, Secretary of the California Department of Food and Agriculture. \u201cWine connects people to California in a way that\u2019s uniquely personal. Whether you\u2019re walking a vineyard at harvest or enjoying a bottle at your table, you\u2019re experiencing something truly rooted in our state\u2019s culture and values.\u201d
\u00a0
From vineyard to table, California wine brings out the best in local flavors, from Sonoma oysters to Santa Maria tri-tip. Back by popular demand, the \u201cIconic California Dishes to Celebrate California Wine Month\u201d e-book<\/a> offers delicious inspiration for pairing local wines with California\u2019s seasonal bounty.
\u00a0
\u201cCalifornia wine country is not one singular destination or experience,\u201d said Caroline Beteta, president and CEO of Visit California. \u201cIt\u2019s the perfect blend of world-class wines, stunning landscapes and unforgettable hospitality. California welcomes visitors from around the world to explore our wine regions, where every tasting is a chance to connect, reflect and raise a glass to what makes the state special.\u201d

\u00a0
California\u2019s wine community has come a long way during the last 175 years \u2014 and it\u2019s just getting started. Here are some of the most memorable and impactful moments in the state\u2019s wine history.
\u00a0
1850<\/strong>: California gains statehood. This sets the stage for the wine industry\u2019s growth as Gold Rush migration to Northern California spurs demand and vineyard plantings.
\u00a0
1933<\/strong>: Prohibition is repealed, allowing wine sales to resume.
\u00a0
1934<\/strong>: Wine Institute is founded to support the California wine industry\u2019s rebirth.
\u00a0
1960s\u20131970s<\/strong>: A new wave of wineries across California usher in a modern era, pairing innovation in winemaking with welcoming visitor experiences that set the stage for global recognition.
\u00a0
1967<\/strong>: Table wines outsell dessert wines by volume in the U.S. for the first time since Prohibition.
\u00a0
1976<\/strong>: At the Judgment of Paris, California wines beat France in a blind tasting, gaining worldwide recognition.
\u00a0
1993<\/strong>: Sales of wines labeled by grape name surpass generic wine sales in the U.S.
\u00a0
2002<\/strong>: Industry leaders introduce the Code of Sustainable Winegrowing.
\u00a0
2004<\/strong>: California Wine Month is established to celebrate the wine community\u2019s cultural and economic contributions.
\u00a0
2005<\/strong>: The U.S. Supreme Court rules that states can\u2019t favor local wineries over out-of-state ones when it comes to shipping wine directly to consumers. This gives wine lovers across the country better access to California wines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

California Grown was formed in 2001 to increase awareness and consumption of high-quality California agricultural products. The organization is represented today by more than two dozen commodity organizations and dozens of agricultural entities licensed to use the popular California Grown brand.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
