ROSENBLUM CELLARS RETURNS TO HEALDSBURG We are pleased to announce that Rosenblum Cellars has returned to Healdsburg with a new Tasting Lounge and Educational Center. Our members will now be able to enjoy our Zintastic wines and hospitality in two great locations once again. Nestled in the heart of Sonoma’s Dry Creek Valley, Healdsburg is the perfect place for us Zinfandel fanatics! Over the last couple of years, we heard from so many North Bay fans that they missed our old tasting room on the square. So we are coming back in grand style with wine tastings, educational seminars, food bites and a private lounge for members and locals. Our new location also boasts an inviting patio space that can be enjoyed throughout the year. The new Rosenblum Cellars ‘North’ is just off the square at 18 Matheson St., just across from the Hotel Healdsburg. Operating hours are Thursday through Monday, 11am–6pm. See you soon!
