"Every award is an honor, and a reminder for us of where we came from and where we're going," remarks Andrea Colaruotolo-O'Neill, director of marketing at Casa Larga Vineyards. "Since our very first awards in 1978 that showed my father that his hobby could be a great business, to these most recent awards that tell our family we are still on the path of producing wine Mr. C would have been proud of."
These and other award-winning wines are available for purchase at the Casa Larga wine shop, online at www.CasaLarga.com and at select Rochester liquor stores.
