HEALDSBURG, Calif., Sept. 22, 2009 -- Gracianna Winery
launches its "What are you grateful for?" web page where
anyone, worldwide, can post a message to share their story.

"Gracianna is for those that have something to be grateful
for and this gives the world a platform to share their
thoughts," said partner/owner Ashley Amador.

Oprah Winfrey, Alice Waters from Chez Panisse and others
have shared their gratitudes with Gracianna, including a
note direct from Harpo Studios executives thanking the
winery for its "gracious spirit."

"We expect anyone with reflections on what they are grateful
for to post a message for all to see on our site. Whether
people enjoy wine or not we are hearing that in this time of
upheaval that stopping for a moment and considering what we
are thankful for is as important as ever right now," said
Ashley.

Gracianna's new wine has caused quite a stir. These luscious
wines, which are made from brilliant fruit and not widely
available, have burst on the scene in Healdsburg. The young
Gracianna winemaker, Trini Amador, is seen as an "up and
comer" in the wine industry.

Gracianna's line of pinots and zinfandels, both featuring
Bacigalupi fruit, have caused quite a buzz among Sonoma wine
insiders. The new Gracianna Winery by the Amador Family has
been fostered by two surprisingly young, exceedingly
well-trained, driven and passionate Sonoma County natives.

The Amador family named the brand after their French Basque
great-grandmother, who was remembered by the family for her
talents in hosting simple celebrations. Gracianna is a
testament to painstaking craftsmanship and hand-detailed
bottles showcasing memorable world-class wine.

Gracianna's home is in Healdsburg on the part of Westside
Road that locals call "The Miracle Mile." The first small
production release is available now and the second vintage
was recently bottled for 2010 release. Keep your eye out for
these brilliantly produced Gracianna wine creations that
will likely become some of Sonoma County's most treasured
favorites. The Amadors expect an estate vineyard designate
"Mercedes' Vineyard" pinot noir wine release in 2013.

So Gracianna symbolizes everyday gratitudes and graciousness
in entertaining because the winery believes that
successfully hosting a special meal with friends and family
is an everlasting circle that fills our lives.
