The web page is now live, listing about 70 of our winery members who have agreed to a $5 shipping fee on a case of wine, from now until Nov. 22.

We can add more wineries later this week, if more of you are interested. If people can't come here, they can still BUY WINE. Please use the hashtags #SipSonoma  #WineRoad  #GatherInSonoma     Click here to check it out #SipSonoma

The decision was made to cancel, not postpone.

Customers were all contacted Friday and given four options...move to Wineland, donate, save for next year, or refund.

We hope to have this completed by Friday.  Next week I'll give you the final numbers.

I know how disappointing it is for all of the wineries, caterer and customers.
