Solano County vintners have linked up to promote county wines and do other advocacy work.

Seven boutique vineyard and winery owners met June 9 at the Rock Creek Vineyards in upper Green Valley to discuss tax issues for small wineries, state wine regulations and marketing Solano wines.

The gathering was organized by the Solano County Agriculture Department's Farm Assistance Revitalization and Marketing program.

Solano County has 18 wineries: two in Dixon, two in Green Valley, three in Vacaville and 11 in the Suisun Valley.
