Welcome to Big White House Winery and John Evan Cellars

Before Harvest Trailer

This Saturday, March 6 at 4:30 PM, the World Premiere of the short film “Before Harvest” will be screened at Livermore Cinema. Audra Arnaudon wrote, produced and directed the film as her senior project at NYU school of film and it was filmed in Livermore, much of it at Big White House winery.  Laura Marion stars as the teenager who is trying to determine whether to leave for college or stay and run the family winery (sound familiar?). The film is 20 minutes. 
 
The screening is at Livermore Cinema at First and Maple. We only have 30 minutes in the theater so please arrive by 4:30. We will gather in the lobby. The screening at the theater will be followed by a reception at the winery 5:30-7:30. Wine, snacks, conviviality and a few more rounds through the film plus some surprise little video treats. Please join us for both the screening and the reception.

Second Annual Barrel Tasting Weekend

Livermore Valley Wine Growers Association Hosts the 2nd Annual Barrel Tasting Weekend March 20-21.

We will participate sampling upcoming releases of John Evan’s plus the bottle your own Dolcetto. Tix are available at http://www.lvwine.org/event/873/1269057600_1269144000/Barrel_Tasting_Weekend.html

We will pour our regular list, and you can taste the bottle your own Dolcetto without buying a ticket but the association has made a firm decision that you will need to buy a ticket to do the extensive barrel tasting.

John Evan was featured in the Barrel Tasting Weekend Video Spot. It was shot at our winery and features John Evan gabbing on and on about the event. Check it out here.

 

John the Elder’s Art Deco Estate Jewelry at the Winery

Did you know John the Elder has been a diamond expert for 32 years? Pieces from his collection of Art Noveau and Art Deco Estate Jewelry, mostly diamond rings set in gold or platinum, are for sale at the Winery. Many of these pieces were purchased when John was actively trading during college and are really good prices. In addition, colored gemstones and other rings are on sale. Consider looking here first if you are looking for a special gift or an engagement ring. His collection is removed nightly to prevent theft.
