BARRA of Mendocino Announces Charlie's Blend In Time for Earth Month Share Article Charlie Barra was farming organically before the term was invented. REDWOOD VALLEY, Calif. (PRWEB) April 05, 2021 The Barra family, proprietors of BARRA of Mendocino and Girasole Vineyards wines, announce the release of their 2019 Charlie’s Blend. This wine will be made each year as a tribute to founder and patriarch Charlie Barra, who planted his first vineyards in Mendocino County in 1955 and passed away in 2019. In conjunction with the release of Charlie’s Blend, the BARRA of Mendocino tasting room is planning a variety of Earth Day activities during the month of April. Throughout April, any visitors to the tasting room that bring in their old corks to be recycled will get a 10% discount off their wine purchase. Visitors to the tasting room will also be entered in a weekly drawing to receive a gift certificate to local restaurants that are sourcing organically grown foods from local farmers. Martha Barra will also be leading two socially distanced vineyard tours for small groups, featuring boxed lunches and wine tasting.
