Year of the Fire Horse arrives with unmistakable energy, bold, untamed, and impossible to ignore.

In the Chinese zodiac, the Fire Horse symbolizes passion, independence, and forward momentum. It’s a spirit we know well here on the estate, where horses still move across the landscape that shaped Apona’s beginning.

Here’s to a year that runs a little faster, dreams a little bigger, and burns a little brighter.

✨ Year of the Fire Horse

This little fire horse is 2 years old today! HBD Martini!!

Happy Holidays from everyone at Apona Vineyards!

What wine are you popping open this week? We’d love to hear your favorite for the season.

Some of us are enjoying our Tawny Port-style dessert wine for Christmas Eve, but our new Club-release Gamay is also perfectly festive with cranberry and spice notes. We may be popping open a bottle of our Sparkling Blanc de Noirs tonight as well.

We’ll see you and yours in the tasting room soon. 🍷
