We’re proud to share some exciting news from one of the most respected wine competitions in the country. Concannon has earned 17 new medals at the San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition, including a standout Best of Class honor for our 2024 Reserve Chardonnay.
A Few Words About the Competition

Wines are evaluated through a rigorous blind-tasting process by experienced judges from across the industry, making these awards a meaningful benchmark for quality, craftsmanship, and consistency.
In short—it’s tough competition, and earning recognition here truly matters.
