February 28, 2008, Healdsburg, CA – Sonoma Vineyards today announced their sponsorship of the 19th Annual Sonoma County Hot Air Balloon Classic, held on June 28 and 29, 2008 in Windsor, California. The winery signed on as the premiere sponsor and is supporting the event by hosting a sweepstakes that will award one couple a free trip to wine country to attend the event (residents of UT and CA are not eligible to win).  “The Hot Air Balloon Classic is a perfect match for Sonoma Vineyards,” notes marketing vice president Dan Wildermuth.  “It celebrates the beauty of Sonoma County just like the images on our wine bottles.”  Each label of Sonoma Vineyards has a lovely black and white photograph of Sonoma County’s countryside. Their new sauvignon blanc has an image of a hot air balloon floating over picturesque vineyards.

 

Sonoma Vineyards is taking the sponsorship coast to coast by hosting a national sweepstakes that will award the grand prize winner with a trip to Sonoma County for the Hot Air Balloon Classic, including a two night stay in wine country, use of a rental car, two tickets to the event, meals and a deluxe gift.  The contest runs from February 25 through May 15 with prize winners announced on May 28, 2008.  To enter online, go to www.svwinestakeflight.com and complete the official online entry form including your full name, complete address, telephone number, email address and date of birth.  Send your entry by clicking on the submit button on the Sweepstakes page.  To enter by mail, hand print the above information on a plain 3” x 5” card and mail to: “Sonoma Vineyards Take Flight In Sonoma” Sweepstakes, c/o TSE, P.O.
