INTELLIGENCE FOR THE WINE CONSUMER


BY LEN NAPOLITANO

What makes Chardonnay, or any wine,


taste different among producers?
The foremost reason is climate. Grapes grown in a cool
climate retain a higher level of acidity than the same grape
variety grown in a warm climate. High acidity produces a crisp
freshness on the palate, whereas the warm climate grapes lose
most of their acidity but develop more sugar. Higher sugar
means higher alcohol potential. Higher alcohol adds weight to
the wine, lending an impression of sweetness. Chardonnay, for
example, grown in these two disparate environments may
produce two very different wine styles. This difference in
crispness verses weightiness is a difference in mouthfeel, a
combination of viscosity with astringency or acidity.
Vineyard soils also vary greatly throughout California and
around the world. Chalk, limestone, clay, sand, gravel, loam,
mineral components or volcanic deposits in soils each make
unique contributions to wine. Grapes grown in the gravel, sand,
loam, and volcanic-deposit soils of the Rutherford area of
Californias Napa Valley are said to produce wines with an
identifiable Rutherford dust character, described as a unique
herbaceous spiciness. The limestone-rich soil of the Chablis
region in France is a big reason why Chardonnay grapes
harvested there produce wines of a steely, flinty quality.
Also, the use of oak in fermentation or the aging process
brings more presence to a wines mouthfeel, along with sweet
flavor and aroma. Choose an un-oaked Chardonnay, for
example, if you prefer a crisp, lighter mouthfeel. If you like a

10

soft, buttery style with a hint of vanilla, look for Chardonnay


aged with at least 40% new oak, or made using one or all of
these processes:
Barrel-fermented: Chardonnay fermented inside an oak barrel
absorbs toasted oak compounds from the barrel as
fermentation progresses, mostly adding weight to the wine but
also a touch of sweet aroma.
Aged-on-the-Lees: Lees are tiny dead yeast cells that settle at
the bottom of a wine barrel, or tank, after fermentation is
complete. About every other week during aging, they are
manually stirred to mix more with the wine and create a rich,
creamy mouthfeel.
Malolactic Fermentation: ML is a secondary fermentation,
caused by injecting the wine with a natural lactic acid bacteria
that converts tart, apple-like acid into softer, milk-like acid,
creating Chardonnay with a rounder mouthfeel.

Provenance Vineyards, as the name suggests, is all about what goes on in


the vineyard. The winemakers have developed close grower relations and
spend a great deal of time walking the vineyards. Their minimal
intervention during winemaking ensures that each wine shows off the
unique personality of its origin. The key to their success is the time and
energy they put into the only thing that truly matters in wine: the land.
Indeed, provenance means origin or source, and can be used to
refer to the complete record of ownership that establishes an artworks
authenticity beyond question. In winemaking, provenance points to a wines
origins how one can trace what is in the glass directly back to the
vineyard. This name was chosen for the winery because all of its releases are
made from grapes that come from hallowed ground in the winemaking
world. In other words, the resulting wines are works of art in the bottle
because they clearly show the uniqueness of their origins.
The vineyards, whether they are owned directly by the winery or by
some of the valleys best growers, are historic and well-known sites. Most
winemakers never encounter vineyards of this quality during their careers;
the winemakers at Provenance Vineyards have access to several. These
include the Beckstoffer Georges III Vineyard, Rutherford Estate vineyards,
the Three Palms Vineyard in Calistoga, the Beckstoffer Las Amigas Vineyard
in Carneros, and the Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard in Oakville, which has
been producing internationally recognized, award-winning Cabernets since
1889.
Adjacent to the winery itself is the Hewitt Vineyard, first planted more

than 130 years ago, and from which only one wine is made: the
limited-release Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon. Rather than using
other varietals as part of a blend, the winemakers use the best grapes
from a variety of clones in the fifty-eight-acre vineyard to achieve
each years bottling. Its celebrated, enticing note of violet is a
hallmark of the vineyard, not present in wines from other
Rutherford locations.
Tasting Provenance Vineyards and Hewitt wines are something
special. The red farmhouse winery is surrounded by vineyards and
a beautiful new patio lounge area to enjoy our wines. Inside, the
tasting room features a one-of-a-kind barrel stave floor made from
960 barrels from the winerys inaugural vintage. In addition, visitors
can book an upscale tasting experience of Hewitt Vineyard Cabernet
Sauvignon, in its private tasting room within Provenance winery.
Provenance Vineyards is well known for Cabernet Sauvignon,
Merlot, and Sauvignon Blanc wines that express the terroir of
Rutherford appellation and very special single vineyards in Napa
Valley. These include the aforementioned Beckstoffer To Kalon Cab
do not miss out! as well as library releases of small-lot Merlots
and aged Cabernets, the Bordeaux-style Winemakers Reserve Blend,
and the delicious Ruby Cabernet Port. We come to Napa for wines
with a certain attitude, for wines that let us know they came from
one exact special spot. The winemakers at Provenance Vineyards,
thanks to the quality of their vineyards, produce wines that do just
that. Enjoy!

BALDACCI FAMILY VINEYARDS


Great Things from Carneros,
Diamond Mountain and Stags Leap District!
BY JOSH STEIN

Open daily from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.


6236 Silverado Trail, Napa, CA 94558
(707) 944-9261 | www.baldaccivineyards.com

28

When you come to Napa, you come for special wines; the Stags Leap District is the
heart of Cabernet Country, and Baldacci Vineyards produces some of the best to be had
anywhere in the Valley. The winery estate was founded in 1997 when Tom and Brenda
Baldacci settled on their seventeen-acre Silverado Trail property with an eye toward the
Cabernet Sauvignon vines which would grow on its hills; in 2001, the 7,000-square-foot
production cave system was added in the hillside behind the tasting room under a
volcanic knoll. The estate vineyard has since been added to with the acquisition of a
twenty-three-acre Carneros vineyard in 2003, planted with the intent of matching grape
varieties to the right location for Chardonnay, Gewrztraminer, Merlot, Pinot Noir and
Syrah. In 2013, Baldaccis production expanded again with the purchase of the 8.5-acre
Stella Vineyard, planted to Cabernet Sauvignon at the base of Diamond Mountain.
That desire for the viticultural best is reflected enologically in every bottling of Baldacci
wines. Known for affordably excellent Cabernet Sauvignonsthere are multiple
bottlings, the single-block Brendas Vineyard, the Black Label ambassador blend of
various estate blocks, and the IV Sons, which has estate Cabernet Franc blended in to
create a more rounded Cabernet expressionBaldacci Vineyards also produces Ruppert
Cabernet from Coombsville and a range of Carneros wines, including the Sorelle
Chardonnay, the Elizabeth Pinot Noir, and the Frederich Gewrztraminer (all named in
honor of family members); theyve released a wine, too, their Harmony Zinfandel, which
benefits music programs with each sale.
Winemaker Rolando Herrera has applied his philosophy of small-batch fermentations,
dividing each vineyard into many blocks and then fermenting them separately, allowing

www.WineCountryThisWeek.com

WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK | WINE COUNTRY NEWS


for blending to become key in producing the estates best
wines. What has been the result? Lots of amazing reviews
and 90+ scores, and its not just big reds where hes seen
success, though. Indeed, the Elizabeth Carneros and
Mathilde Russian River Pinot Noirs show the same attention
to winemaking detail as is also seen in the individual small
bottlings of Chardonnay and Gewrztraminer the winery
only makes available directly. Oh, and by the way, Rolando
has been named Best Local Winemaker multiple years in a
row by the Valleys wine media.
What makes Baldacci Family Vineyards a place of true
note in the Valley isnt just the wines but the unique
location of their tastings and tours. The views of the
eastern hills and central mid-Valley are memorable by
themselves, the cave system is a amazingly extensive, and
the wines match the locale perfectly. If you enjoy same-day
appointments coupled with true warmth and great wines,
then you need to try the range of Baldacci releases,
including frequently changing limited-production wines
like their Gewrz and Allwin
Syrah. As everyone around the
winery will tell you, theres
always a friendly face, an open
bottle of wine and great stories
to share in the tasting room. Or,
as Tom Baldacci is oft-noted to
remark, Wine pairs best with
family and friends.
While the winery does accept
drop-in tastings from 10 a.m. to
1 p.m., the four-times-daily
Estate Tasting and Tour (at 10
a.m., 11:30 a.m., 1 p.m. and
2:30 p.m.) really is the best way
to enjoy these releases. Visitors
participate in a private
experience that is tailored to
their wine interests. Starting in
the Cellar Room, guests try
limited release wines paired with
local artisanal cheeses while
discussing the philosophies
behind grape, vineyard and
family name choices for each
release. The tour includes
production and cave areas and a
discussion of wine aging. Come
see for yourself what one familys
vision has produced along the
eastern side of the Silverado
Trail youll be very glad you
did. Enjoy!

CA MOMI NAPA VALLEY


It Doesnt Get Any More Italian Than This
BY MELISSA VOGT

CAMOMI ENOTECA
Open daily from 7:30 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.
610 First Street, Napa in the Oxbow Public Market
(707) 257-4992 | www.camomienoteca.com

In Napa Valley, there isnt any experience


more authentic Italian than enjoying wellcrafted wine and delicious Italian cuisine at
Ca Momi Enoteca. Conveniently located
inside the foodie mecca that is the Oxbow
Public Market in Napa, Ca Momi Enoteca
offers an obsessively authentic Italian
experience for those looking to delight in a
taste of Italy and a few splashes of great Napa
Valley wine. Sure, there are may places to
enjoy Italian food, pizza and wine in Napa
Valley, but Ca Momi Enoteca offers more than
what others offerthey dish up an experience
that goes well beyond the typical expectations
for Italian food in America. In fact, Ca Momi
Enoteca isnt Italian-American at allits just
pure Italian.
Dario De Conti, Winemaker of Ca Momi
wines and Pizzaiolo at the Enoteca, grew up
on a farm in Veneto, northeastern Italy. His
parents raised their own cows for cheese
production and also produced salumi; Darios
brother and sister owned a pizzeria. Though

the family did not have a direct connection to


grape growing or winemaking, in Italy, one is
never very far from that way of life. Dario,
enchanted by this lifestyle, set out to study
winemaking. During his studies, he held a job
making pizzas to help pay for his education.
Thus, the seed for Ca Momi winery and Ca
Momi Enoteca was planted.
Today, having now lived in Napa Valley for
eleven years, he is the proud co-owner of Ca
Momi winery and Ca Momi enoteca with his
partners Valentina Guolo-Migotto and Stefano
Migottothough their ambitions do not stop
there. This spring, the Ca Momi team will
open a new Ca Momi osteria location in
downtown Napa at 1141 First Streetwhich
will feature their Vera Pizza Napoletana
(VPN), as well as will continue to feature
seasonal italian dishes, an extensive mixology
cocktail list and a wider range of culinary
experiences. The current Ca Momi enoteca
location in the Oxbow Public Market will still
retain its pizza menu and Ca Momis Italian
pastries, with the items being served up in a

are traditional and originate from our family.
Drawing on his experience in Italy and from family
traditions passed down in the kitchen, each dish is
uniquely crafted to culinary perfection. His Italian
ancestors, without a doubt, would be
overwhelmed with pride and joy to see Dario
offering up a slice of Italy in Napa Valley.

Ca Momi Entoeca Cuisine

to-go style fashionincreasing the accessibility of


Ca Momi cuisine for those looking to enjoy a wine
country picnic or those dropping by the Oxbow to
pick up a quick, gourmet lunch.
Currently, Ca Momi Enoteca features a beautiful
and broad menu that is full of authentic Italian
cuisineranging from delicious antipasti,
mouthwatering homemade salumi, slow food
menu options that utilize unique ingredients for
delicious delicacies, a wide range of handmade
pasta dishes, delectable flatbread sandwiches,
certified Vera Pizza Napoletana, and Classiche
pizzas which bear the same names and ingredients
of the classic pizzas served in Italy. Each of these
artfully crafted dishes is created with organic, local
and Italian ingredients. Of course, to enjoy with all
of these wonderfully authentic offerings, guests can
order a glass or bottle of Ca Momis wines, in
addition to other wines from various local and
Italian producers.
When looking at the menu, one can see what
Dario is speaking about when he says, Ca Momi
is not just about the food or the wineits about
the entire Italian lifestyle. The menu is set up to
highlight different regions in Italy and offers dishes
that speak to the beauty and culinary masterpieces
from those regions. Each dish reflects the local
ingredients that are traditionally grown and
produced in that region; as a result, each dish
remains incredibly authentic and delivers the same
culinary experience that one would have in
restaurants across Italy. By incorporating
ingredients that are strictly regionally grown and
produced, Dario is able to showcase traditional,
Italian culinary lifestyles and dishes.
When tasting through the menu, one gets an
overwhelming sense of place through the intricate
and yet simple flavors of each handcrafted dish.
We try to keep the tradition as much as we can.
We want to keep it authentic Italian and we want
to educate people about all aspects of Italian food.
Whats more, Dario states, that all of the recipes

Look for us on Facebook and become a Fan!

When visiting Ca Momi Enoteca, there are a


variety of must-try dishesthough narrowing
down the choices from their all-inclusive menu is
often difficult to do, because every item looks
unbelievably fresh and tasty. To start, the burrata &
verdure, a traditional dish from Puglia, is a warm
and hardy combination of housemate burrata
cheese and an assortment of roasted root
vegetables. This delectable dish is served alongside
schiacciata allolio, simple flat bread served warm
to accompany the cheese and vegetables. The
burrata is cool and fresh, and contrasts nicely
against the warm vegetables that take on a bit of
sweetness from the roasting. The slightly charred
edges of the vegetables also give added flavor
complexity to the dish and taste delicious with Ca
Momis 2012 Reserve Carneros Chardonnay. This
wine, having been aged in steel barrels and
undergone some malolactic fermentation, retains
decent acidity and brightness, while still filling the
palate with a silky texture and medium body. The
balance is just right, gracefully showing apple, pear
and tropical fruit notes alongside a touch of
minerality on the finish.
Of course, theres no such thing as an authentic
Italian dining experience without a delightful
selection of cured meets and cheeses. The
pecorino, prosciutto and house-made salumi are
absolutely tasty on their own, but when paired
with the 2011 Reserve Carneros Pinot Noir, are
even more delightful to enjoy. Notes of raspberry
and strawberry pair beautifully with the salty and

savory flavors of the cured meats; the


fattiness of the cured meats also lends body
to the wine, giving it more structure and
weight. The gentle oak spice and earthiness
of this well-balanced Pinot Noir also
complements several of the pasta dishes on
the menu.
The tagliatellethin, delicate pasta
covered in a creamy Parmesan sauce, served
with black truffle sourced from Italyis an
incredible coupling with the 2011 Reserve
Carneros Pinot Noir. The thin, delicate
noodles capture the delicious flavor of the
truffle shavings and when enjoyed with the
Pinot Noir, create more viscosity and texture
in the wine. The touch of barrel spice also
complements the truffle flavor and brightens
the raspberry fruit beautifully.
The gnudi (which means naked in Italian)

Gnudi

is essentially the filling of ravioli without the


pastaconsisting of ricotta and spinach,
formed into a small ball. This dish has a
fabulous range of textures and is served in a
flavorful, thin layer of butter, sage and
Parmesan sauce. The 2012 Reserve Carneros
Pinot Noir is also an excellent pairing with
this dish and plays with the flavors in
different ways than it does with the
tagliatelle. The spinach, which has an earthy
pungency, actually mellows out the fruit
flavors in the wine. The body becomes richer
and silkier, while the Parmesan and sage add
complexity to the barrel spice in the
background of the wine. Overall, the gnudi
and Pinot Noir are a sensational pairing.

Vera Pizza Napoletana


Vera Pizza Napoletana (VPN) denotes an
exclusive Italian certification for a style of
pizza making. The restrictions for VPN are
that the pizza must be no larger than eleven
inches, have a raised edge crust and thin
center; it also has to be cooked for ninety
seconds in a wood-burning oven at 900
degrees. Once cooked, the pizza must be
easily foldablenot crispy. The ingredients
are incredibly simple, but overwhelmingly
flavorful. Crushed san marzano tomatoes
from Italy create the base layer, topped with
fresh buffalo mozzarella, fresh basil and a few
drizzles of olive oilthese are the only
ingredients allowed for VPN.
Pair VPN with a classic Italian field-blend
style of red wine and its a picture perfect
pairing, straight from Italy. Ca Momis 2012
Rosso di Napa is a blend of Cabernet
Sauvignon, Merlot and a touch a Syrah. This

is the wine that most represents what we


are, Dario proudly states. It is food-friendly,
great quality and represents the Italian
lifestyle, he further adds. Though the wine
is not made of Italian varietals, Dario is true
to the Italian style of winemaking in which
production is focused on what grapes grow
best locally; in Napa, a Cabernet Sauvignon
based blend is without a doubt a classic wine
for this region. The wine is full-bodied and
silky, with lovely notes of berry fruit and a
touch of spice. The neutral barrel aging,
which is traditional for many Italian wines,
allows the varietals and terroir to shine
beautifully in the glass. As Dario mentioned,
the 2013 Rosso di Napa is a perfectly foodfriendly wine, especially when the food is
Vera Pizza Napoletana.
To enjoy the most authentic Italian dining
experience in Napa Valley, visit Ca Momi
enoteca in the Oxbow Public Market, located
at 610 First Street in Napa. They are open
daily from 7:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Be sure to
visit their new restaurant this spring at 1141
First Street in Napa. For more information or

JUDDS HIL
Personal, Intimate Wines
from the Southern Silverado Trail

Judds Hill is owned and operated by two generations of the Finkelstein family.
Bunnie, Judd and Holly Finkelstein have been making wine in the Napa Valley
since the 1970s, and in that time, they have seen worldwide recognition and
demand for their releases take them to producing many tens of thousands of cases
before making the deliberate decision to sell their first winery, Whitehall Lane,
south of St. Helena, and limit their annual production to less than three thousand
cases total a literal drop in the bucket of Napa Valley wine providing much
more hands-on control of every facet of each release.
Starting again on a fourteen-acre Howell Mountain vineyard and winery
designed by Judds now-deceased father, Art the first of the new releases was the
1989 Cabernet Sauvignon. Because of Arts reputation as a fine winemaker, many
grape growers began approaching him to make small quantities of wine to
showcase their fruit quality. Soon, wine enthusiasts from throughout the country
were having him produce small lots of customized ultra-premium wines for them,
thus creating the Custom MicroCrush business in 1992 and allowing folks to
realize the dream of having their own wine made for them without having to own a
winery. In 2006, construction was completed on a new winery located at the
southern end of the Silverado Trail, designed to make working with clients easier,
to make the winery as green as possible, and to create an intimate tasting salon for
visitors to sample the range of wines made in very small quantities but from some
of the Valleys, if not the worlds, greatest vineyards.
Given the special space amongst the Valleys growers within which the winery
operates, there are lots of wine options to taste, with none made in very large
quantities: Cabernet Franc; multiple Cabernets Sauvignons, including reserve and

sub-appellation bottlings; Charbono;
Chardonnay; Meritage; Merlot; Old Vine
Petite Sirah; Pinot Noir; Sauvignon Blanc;
Syrah and Reserve Syrah; Viognier; and Old
Vine Zinfandel. Sweets arent ignored, either:
375ml bottlings of Tardy Harvest
Roussanne and Ruby Fabulosa Port are
available, too. And the newest bottlings
amongst the ever-changing lineup are the
black label Mourvedre Ros and the white
blend Prestidigitation, made to pair up with
the popular red blend, Magic. The black
label wines are an exciting iteration of
winemaking practice driven by the
winemakers at the winery, allowing for only
one or two barrels of experimental wines and
techniques to be bottled and sold only from
them.
If you are looking for an excuse to visit,
the winery has several upcoming events not
to be missed. May 17th is the date of the 9th
Annual Springtime Bonanza, which benefits
the Napa Valley Youth Symphony. Taste
buds will be delighted by a delectable
medley of barbecued goodies, new wine
releases will be in abundant supply, and
there may even be some library wines made
available from the vault.Save August 1st for
the annual Lobster Luau, featuring mounds
of crustaceans and delicious Judds Hill
wines. It sells out quickly, so get your
tickets soon.
Cant make the events? The Bottle
Blending Day Camp is available with
advanced notice any time which works for
you both at the winery or wherever youd
like in the greater Bay Area. A blending guide
leads you and groups both large or small
through a personal tasting and blending
session, and then you get to hand-bottle,
-label, and -foil your own wines. And for
those who cannot make it to The West Coast,
the whole Bottle Blending Day Camp is
available as a wine kit for purchase from the
winery or website. What could be more fun
than producing your own personal blend?
Sound tempting? Like everything Judds Hill
does, I am sure it does. Do yourself a favor
and come on in for wines, food, and fun
from one of the founding families of the
modern Napa Valley youll be glad you
did. Enjoy!

Napa Valley Vintners Announces Premiere Napa Valley Wine Offerings


Photo by Bob McClenahan for Napa Valley Vintners.

More than 90% of the wines are from the highly anticipated 2013 vintage
The Napa Valley Vintners invites wine enthusiasts and collectors to
preview the one-of-a-kind, limited production wines that will be
available at Premiere Napa Valley in February 2015. Created solely for
the Premiere Napa Valley portfolio and produced in quantities as
small as 60 and never more than 240 bottles, the wines will be sold
exclusively to members of the wine trade during the nonprofit trade
associations annual barrel tasting and auction. Descriptions of the 225
lots can be viewed at premierenapawines.com
For Premiere Napa Valley, every winemaker crafts a blend that is
truly unique from all of the other wines they produce, notes Michael
Scholz of the St. Supry Estate Vineyards and Winery team that is
chairing the 2015 Premiere Napa Valley Steering Committee. The
barrel they create is the only barrel of its kind making Premiere Napa
Valley one of the rarest wine brands in the world.
Though reminiscent of how Hospice de Beaune wines are
produced, the process is uniquely American. For example,
winemakers might use a grape variety they would not normally bottle
as a stand-alone wine under their own brand. The grapes may be
sourced from a specific part of a single vineyard, or the wine might be
aged using a unique barrel regime not regularly employed by the
winery. Some of the most novel offerings are produced as joint lots
multiple vintners who collaborate to create a blend exclusively for the
Premiere Napa Valley brand.
The wines are offered as futures at the auction only to licensed
members of the wine trade for resale to their customers and ultrapremium wine collectors. Each bottle is hand-labeled, individually
numbered and signed by the winemaker, similar to a limited edition
work of fine art.
The Premiere Napa Valley barrel tasting and auction on February
21 is the culmination of a week rich in wine tasting and educational
and professional networking experiences hosted by both the NVV and
the vintners who have crafted the wines. Now in its 19th year,
Premiere Week, as it has come to be known, is an annual
homecoming for trade and media to spend intimate time with Napa

Bidding has begun at the barrel auction.

Valley winery owners and winemakers the world-renowned region.


Licensed wine sellers, including retailers, restaurateurs and
wholesalers can still request a ticket to the invitation-only Premiere
Napa Valley event at premierenapawines.com. For those not able to
attend, absentee bids are accepted.
For members of the wine-loving public who would like to
purchase these rare examples of Napa Valley winemaking innovation
and creativity, there are several ways to secure selections for private
cellars: Wines that have already been released from previous Premiere
Napa Valley auctions are noted on the website along with the wine
sellers contact information. Consumers interested in purchasing the
futures that will be sold in February can contact their favorite retailer
to bid on their behalf.

Best Winery in Napa award for 5 consecutive years in the Bay Area A-List.
2012 Winery of the Year by Connoisseurs guide to fine wine.

Founded in 1992, today Frank Family owns 380 acres of the finest vineyard land
in Napa Valley and has one of the biggest word-of-mouth followings in the wine
country. First constructed as the Larkmead Winery in 1884, the historic stone
building on the property was refinished with native sandstone from the nearby
hills in 1906. The massive stone edifice is considered one of the finest structures
in the Napa Valley; it appears on the National Register of Historical Places and is
listed as a Point of Historical Interest in the state of California.

After 135 years in Alexander Valley, and founded as the twenty-ninth bonded winery
in the state of California in 1880, Geyser Peak has shown it knows how to grow and
produce award-winning, internationally-recognized Sonoma County wines for a long
time. The key is not to forget that growing great grapes in the right spots requires yearround attention to detail, and the goal is the same today as it was in the Nineteenth
century: create top quality wines of distinction. This has meant combining the best of
Old and New World techniques, and the results have been many Winery of the Year and
Top Winemaker awards.
The several dozen wines produced annually span a gamut and are organized by tiers.
The California Series offers award-winning, budget-conscious bottlings of Cabernet
Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Merlot, Moscato, Pinot Grigio, Pinot Noir and Sauvignon
Blanc. The Appellation Series is an expression the various AVAs spanning Sonoma
County, including Russian River Valley Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir, Alexander
Valley Chardonnay, and the Tectonic red blend from Geyser Peak Mountain itself.
The limited-release wines found in the Winery Series are a true expression of unique,
lesser-known varietals in small-lot bottlings of under 150 cases found only at the
winery; releases include two Cabernets from the Ascencia and Kuimelis Vineyards in
Alexander Valley, Walking Tree Vineyard Petite Sirah, rarely solely-bottled Petite Verdot,
the Thermopoli Red Rhone Blend, Sandy Point Vineyard Syrah, and even a Tawny Port
in 375ml bottles. Last but certainly not least, the Reserve Series presents Reserve
Cabernet, Reserve Alexandre Meritage and the new Devils Inkstand Cabernet, each
blended via an expensive and time-heavy barrel-by-barrel process.
To afford greater access to these releases, the winery opened a new tasting room and
production facility just outside Healdsburg not long ago. Its wine country barns sit on

seventy acres of Zinfandel grapes at the confluence of Dry Creek
Valley and Russian River Valley appellations. Well-known winemaker
Ondine Chattan says, I am excited about the small-lot, reserve-tier
winemaking it will afford us in the future. We will continue with our
same vineyard sources and are continually looking for opportunities
to showcase the diversity of terroir in our appellation bottlings.
And the winerys new space has multiple options for tasting its
releases there at the thirty-foot Alderwood and quartz bar or in the
private tasting Lounge. The Premier Tasting allows guests to select
four wines to try while the Reserve Tasting offers five winery-only
bottlings, with no reservations required for groups up to twelve
people. Also available year-round, the Wine & Cheese Pairings offers
local cheeses paired with special bottlings in the PEAK lounge or
outside on the deck. Equally, visitors are invited to take in the views
of the surrounding vineyards from the picnic deck while enjoying
food and wine available onsite: the Picnic & Tasting Package includes
wine, a selection of charcuterie and chocolates served there or on the
lawn, complete with table settings and wines. There is even a Group
Premier Wine Tasting with Boxed Lunch for those larger groups
which are so inclined.
Its clear why Geyser Peak has been around so long and why
theyre our Tasting Room of the Week: theyve never forgotten the
ingredients to great winemaking are vineyards, care and detail, and
wonderful surroundings in which to appreciate the results. Do
yourself a favor the next time Sonoma wine country beckons and
stop inyoull be glad you did. Enjoy!

MACPHAIL TASTING LOUNGE


AT THE BARLOW
One of the Most Unique Tastings in All the Wine Country!
BY MONICA L. DASHWOOD

TASTING LOUNGE @ THE BARLOW


Open Sunday-Wednesday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Thursday-Saturday until 8 p.m.
6761 McKinley Street, Sebastopol CA
(707) 824-8400 | macphailwine.com

Wine lovers, near and far come to MacPhails tasting lounge for two reasons: Pinot Noir and
Chardonnay. With more than 20 years of experience producing small batch varietals, James
MacPhails passion for great wines is proudly on display at the Barlow.
The Barlow in Sebastopol is a contemporary urban center, bringing the best winemakers,
food producers and artisans to share their local Sonoma County culinary delights with you.
The tasting lounge gives off a fun and trendy vibe, showcasing a 40 foot sculpture made of
welded red wagons designed by Napa artist Richard Von Saal, his interpretation of MacPhail
wine being poured from a bottle. Von Saal designed the Tasting Lounge using only recycled,
repurposed and reclaimed materials.
Once inside, MacPhail Family Wines offers an array of seated tastings in an open spacious
and relaxed setting. Guests can now experience one of the most unique tastings in the wine
country. The Terroir Tasting, a pairing of soil and wine, is meant for wine enthusiasts interested
in learning the nuances found in an award-winning fine Pinot Noir or Chardonnay, such as the
2012 Pinot Noir, Sonoma Coast and the 2012 Chardonnay, Sonoma Coast, both receiving high
marks from either Robert Parker or the Wine Enthusiast.
Winemaker James MacPhail created a Soil Wall in their Tasting Lounge showing 8' cross
sections of four vineyards Toulouse, Pratt, Sundawg and Mardikian, under glass in their Soil
Room. Here they discuss the four key components to James wines Soil, Clonal Selection,
Vintage and Winemaking Style. Everything you wanted to know about winemaking is bottled in
this wine tasting experience. The fee is $30 per person, with one fee waived for every three
bottles purchased.
In addition, MacPhail Family Wines offers the Monthly Cheese Maker Series, a tasting where
every month a different local cheese maker is selected to provide an assortment of fresh artisan
cheeses to pair with their menu of wines. For $20 per person, the tasting includes nibbles of
fruits, nuts and breads from local farms and bakeries. Reservations are required.
Come and immerse yourself in a Pinot Noir and Chardonnay loving world, a tasting
experience like no other!

Saturday, March 21
Tournament of the Pig, 10:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.
Pigs & Pinot guest chefs will be divided into two talent-packed
teams. Charlie Palmer and actor/comedian Mario Cantone will host
this iron-chef style competition so guests can once again expect
some lively commentary! The two teams will be given a whole pig,
which they will use to create two distinct dishes, along with
ingredients they can find at Dry Creek Kitchen. A pork-loving
panel of judges will determine the winning team. And yes, the
audience gets to taste, too!
Ultimate Pinot Smack Down; 1:00 p.m.-3:00 p.m.
Join Master Sommeliers Keith Goldston, Fred Dame, Drew
Hendricks, and Michael Jordan for this exciting March Madnessinspired wine seminar. Each Master Sommelier enters the room
with his personal selection of four Pinot Noirs from around the

pitch contest, which includes blind tastings where the audience
picks the winner.
Pigs & Pinot Gala Dinner; 6:30 p.m.

Spoonbars Chef Louis Maldonado (Top Chef Finalist 2014) and
team showcase two very special and passionate Pinot Noir wineries
for their annual Swine & Wine dinner: Brogan Cellars and George
Wine Company. Both wineries are considered cult Pinot Noir
producers and Chef Maldonado does justice to their exceptional
flavor profiles with his food pairings. Whereas Pinot Noir is
normally paired with European flavors, Chef Maldonado will marry
Pinot with an Asian palette from Japan, Korea and Vietnam
with pork as the unifying factor during this 5-course casual chic
dinner. Its a Next Gen Pigs & Pinot that promises to take the
experience to a whole new level.
Pigs & Pinot Late Night is a late evening celebration following the
Gala and Spoonbars Swine & Wine Dinner with after-dinner drinks
and dessert at Hotel Healdsburgs Spirit Bar and fireside lounge. All

WALT Wines Introduces New Educational Experience


BY MELISSA VOGT

2015 is the year of wine education and Walt Wines has taken the
reigns in the study of stunning Pinot Noir. Their new educational
course, the Appellation Exploration, is hosted monthly in their quaint
tasting room, located just off the Sonoma Plaza. Between January and
June, six Appellation Exploration courses have been scheduled for
guests to take an in depth look at Walts various Pinot Noirs, as well
as Pinot Noir from wineries located both locally and abroad. Each
course has a special theme and a different host, allowing the
experiences to stand on their own or build off each other if guests
wish to attend more than one. As Pinot Noir continues to gain
popularity with wine enthusiasts, critics and winemakers, Walt
Wines Appellation Exploration course has quickly become a highly
sought-after, premier tasting experience that stands out amongst the
plethora of wine education opportunities in wine country.
The first Appellation Exploration course was held on January 8th
and hosted by Walt Wines Tasting Room Manager Thrace
Bromburger. The theme of the first course in the six course series was
Appellations 101. Bromburger began the course with conversation
about terroir focusing on how climate, soil and elevation affects
Pinot Noir grapes differently across the appellations of the wines
poured for the course. Six wines were featured from appellations
along the Pacific Coast and each wine was made with fruit from a
single vineyard from that appellation.

WALT WINES APPELLATION EXPLORATION


March 12: Viticulture of Appellations, hosted by Hall Wines Director of Vineyard Operations Don Monk
April 9: Sommelier to the Stars, hosted by Sommelier & Wine Journalist Christopher Sawyer
May 14: Gaps Crown Vineyard Wines, hosted by Walt Wines Wine Educator Dan Wood
June 11: Appellation Blind Tasting, hosted by Walt Wines Tasting Room Manager Thrace Bromburger

For Bromburger, who has been working in the wine industry for
nineteen years, Pinot Noir has always been a favorite varietal of hers,
and it certainly shows as she passionately walks the class through
tasting each of the six wines. The unique flavors across appellations
and the small production of these wines make this course a very
personal, exclusive experience. Guests interact and discuss the wines
while learning about each appellation and vineyard site, and can
compare and contrast aromas and flavors as they taste through the
wines.
Comparatively, each Pinot Noir exhibits unique flavors, despite the
fact that Winemaker Megan Gunderson keeps the winemaking
process and oak regime practically the same for each wine. This really
speaks to the importance of appellation designation, vineyard
designation and terroir. Guests experience firsthand, by tasting
though single vineyards Pinot Noirs, that individual vineyard sites
create specific flavors, textures and ranges of depth that are quite
distinguishable when tasted side by side. An opportunity to taste six
single vineyard Pinot Noirs from various Pacific Coast appellations
does not come around every day, so it is no wonder that wine
enthusiasts are flocking to the Appellation Exploration courses at
Walt Wines.
The remaining five courses are scheduled as noted below. For
more information, visit www.waltwines.com or call (707) 933-4440
to inquire about the remaining Appellation Exploration courses.

WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK | SONOMA VALLEY

Intimate Experience for Cab Lovers at Laurel Glen


BY SHOSHANA HEBSHI

Tucked away on a side street in the heart of Glen Ellen, Laurel


Glen Vineyards tasting room invites visitors into its modern and
intimate space with a smile and little pretense.
The kid- and pet-friendly tasting room flows from the front
entrance to the rear patio, where on a warm, sunny day employees
will open a rolling garage door and visitors can enjoy a tasting on the
back patio.
Known for its distinctive Cabernet Sauvignon grown organically
on 16 sloping acres on Sonoma Mountain, the winery offers a
number of tastings to visitors on an appointment or walk-in basis.
Sitting at one of the many tasting areas, visitors will first be guided
through the vineyards history, its farming and harvesting methods
and then given a thorough journey of wine tasting.
The Current Release tasting provides an overview of whats on
the shelves at the moment $20 and free for wine club members.
The Library Wines and Chocolate Tasting is $30 and includes a
pairing of Cabs from different years paired with chocolate made with
various complementary ingredients, such as roasted almond, cocoa
nibs, pomegranate and rosemary.
Though the winery focuses on Cabernet Sauvignon, it makes one
Ros, the Crazy Old Vine, which kicks off the tasting. Half of the
Ros comes from grapes produced by a single row of original vines
planted at the vineyard in the 1880s. The other half is from

www.WineCountryThisWeek.com

Cabernet Sauvignon vines.


The following flight of Cabernet Sauvignons invites the visitor to
taste and feel the difference between the vintage years.
All of Laurel Glens wines spend two years in French oak and two
years in bottles before being released. Library wines go back all the
way to 1981, when the winery opened. As the wine ages, visitors will
notice powerful distinctions in flavor profiles and complexity.
While there seems to be truly no off-season at Laurel Glen, the
staff works to ensure visitors have an intimate experience no matter
the size of the group.
The winery regularly hosts special events, such as themed
tastings and art receptions plus special parties for its wine club
members. For more information or to book a reservation, visit
www.laurelglen.com/visit-us.html or call (707) 933-9877.

Coro Mendocino Celebrates 2012 Vintage


with Release Party in San Francisco, June 19
The Iconic and Collaborative Label Debuts its 2012 Collection of Wines
with a Multi-Course Winemaker Dinner at Dogpatch WineWorks in SF
Coro Mendocino, a collection of ultra-premium wines produced
to showcase the rich heritage and unique characteristics of
Mendocino County, will debut its 2012 vintage at their 12th Annual
Release Party on Friday, June 19, 2015. This year, Coro Mendocino is
excited to announce that it has moved the annual events host
location from Mendocino County to San Francisco, with Dogpatch
WineWorks in the DogPatch District of San Francisco hosting the
event.
We are beyond excited to grow this annual event by hosting our
first-ever Release Party in San Francisco, states Hoss Milone,
Marketing Manager for Coro Mendocino and Winemaker at Brutocao
Cellars. While Mendocino has been a wonderful location for our
Release Dinner for the past 11 years, in 2015 we are looking forward
to sharing the Coro story with a larger audience, outside the borders
of our beloved Mendocino County.
The 2012 vintage marks the 12th release for Coro Mendocino,
and includes wines from eight diverse Mendocino County vintners.
The christened label and blend known as Coro named and
inspired from the Latin root for chorus is the first wine of its kind
to set blending and aging parameters for a wine distinctive to its
region in the United States.
Every Coro wine is a signature blend, individually handcrafted in
Mendocino County from 100 percent Mendocino County grapes, in
strict accordance with the production protocols and bylaws set forth
by Consortium Mendocino. Zinfandel, the countys heritage varietal,
must make up no more than 70 percent and no less than 40 percent
of the wine. Nine other types of grapes may be included, typically
Rhne or Italian varietals.*
All Coro Mendocino wines are aged a minimum of one year in the
barrel and one in the bottle before the world is permitted to taste
them. Even then, no one can sip until the winemakers in the
Consortium have blind-tasted every wine and determined that the
wine is worthy of the Coro label.
2015 marks the 12th vintage of the Coro Mendocino label,
established in 2000 by a collection of liked-minded Mendocino
County winemakers. The reviews for previous years have been
effusive, calling the wines smooth, lush, intense, sophisticated and
fun, and rich, long and stylish.
Of course, no two Coro wines are ever exactly alike. Oenophiles
will have the opportunity to be the first to taste the 2012 vintage at
the official Coro Release Party on June 19, at Dogpatch WineWorks in
San Francisco. Each vintner will pour selections of their white, red
and sparkling wines during the welcome reception (beginning at 6
p.m.) while guests nosh on bites and nibbles created by Park Avenue

New WineryGeek app now available for iPhone and Android!

Catering. Following the opening reception, guests will be seated and


enjoy a gourmet, four-course meal (also prepared by Park Avenue
Catering), with each course being paired with two of the 2012
vintage Coro wines. Each table will host a different winemaker or a
winery representative from a Coro winery to answer any questions
guests might have about Coro and the wines being poured. The
evening will conclude with a selection of beautifully handmade
desserts and treats, paired with ports and dessert wines from the
participating Coro wineries.
Wineries participating in Coro Mendocinos 2012 Annual Release
Party include: Barra of Mendocino, Brutocao Cellars, Clos du Bois,
Golden Vineyards, McFadden Vineyard, Parducci Wine Cellars, Rays
Station and Testa Vineyards. As a parting gift, each couple will receive
a complete collection of the eight 2012 Coro wines produced by
these labels to take home and enjoy (a value of $320).
Cost per couple to attend the Release Party is $700, and includes
the complete collection of 2012 Coro wines, as well as free valet
parking, an opening reception with a selection of wines and passed
appetizers, a four-course winemaker dinner and a dessert course
paired with dessert wines.
The Coro wines have evolved over the last 12 years as fullbodied, fruit-forward products that stand out as complex and
different from standard varietal bottlings, said Dennis Patton,
Winemaker for Golden Vineyards. In moving the dinner to San
Francisco, we hope to introduce Coro wines to individuals who are
not familiar with the brand, and have them fall in love with our story
and wines, just as our loyal and long-time fan base has.

Coro Mendocino
Established in 2000, Coro is the only American example of
winemakers coming together to set standards for a class of wines to
represent a particular wine region. That region is Mendocino County,
a diverse area that encompasses a variety of climates and soils, and
boasts a mixture of multi-generational winemakers with deep Italian
roots alongside newcomers with extensive and varied backgrounds.
Coro means chorus in Italian, and it represents the crafting of the
Mendocino terroir into wines that sing on the palate.
Every Coro wine is a signature blend, individually crafted in
Mendocino County from 100 percent Mendocino County grapes, in
strict accordance with the Coro Mendocino bylaws. Each Coro wine
must lead with between 40-70 percent Zinfandel and may be blended
with up to nine named varietals, honoring the Old Italian field
blends of Mendocino. Every bottle is held to strict protocols, and
must be aged at least one year in the barrel and one year in the bottle,
followed by blind-tasting by the winemakers before it can be deemed
a Coro wine.
