Blending, when a winemaker mixes wines of different varieties or

wines of the same variety from different vineyards or barrels, is acritical step in the process of making wine. The purpose of blendingis to create a more interesting wine. A winemaker may feel that the

addition of wine made from another grape will either fill in anyweaknesses of the primary grape or create a more complex wine, andconsequently, a more pleasing wine to drink.

Perhaps the most famous blended red wine in the world is

Bordeaux, from France. It is a blend of two to five grapes, thedominant ones being Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The othergrapes that make up a red Bordeaux wine are Petit Verdot(contributes to color), Cabernet Franc (contributes to tannic structure

and richness of flavor) and Malbec (contributes to flavor).

Merlot is often used to blend with Cabernet Sauvignon to helpsoften, or round out, the Cabernet Sauvignon, which can sometimcontain harsh-tasting tannins. Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon is al

popular duo having complementary characteristics. The percentagbreakdown of the components that make up a blended wine aresometimes indicated on a label, but it is not required to do so for American wines. In Australia, however, where the Cabernet/Syrah

combo is frequently found, label laws must show the percentages each grape that make up a blend.

Grapes that are used for blending purposes are chosen to eitheradd flavor, body, acidity, finish or aging potential. It is also possible

for white wines to be made from a blend of grapes, such as Sauvig

Blanc with Semillion, but white wine blends are usually less poputhan red blends.

When producers in the United States make a blended wine usi

the same grapes that are used to make Bordeaux wine, they arepermitted to identify these wines as “Meritage” style wines (rhymewith heritage). This is a unique, American term that may only beused on a wine label when the wine is blended from the Bordeaux

grapes mentioned above. If a non-Bordeaux grape, such as Zinfanis part of the blend, it is technically not a “Meritage” style wine.

I find Meritage style wines to be among the very best of Californred wines. They are elegant, layered with aromas and flavors and p

beautifully with many meat dishes.

BY JOSH STEIN

Driving through wine country right now, asharvest is reaching its peak, gives your nose just as

many interesting things as your eyes. One of my

favorite post-workday joys is cruising past wineries

at night with the top down, smelling the

fermentations sweetly giving way to wines ready for

barrels. Or not. I also enjoy that the decisions

being made about so many thousands and

thousands of gallons of wine aren’t mine to make as

when the grapes come in, those winemakers have to

make decisions about oak usage and logistics almost

from the start, and there are lots of choices awaiting.

For whites, the decisions come down to thedegree, if any, of oak influence. Many white varieties

do not benefit from oak exposure, and even neutral

barrels (barrels used long enough that oak tannin is no longer

perceptible in wines stored therein) can cause a stylistic miscue since

barrels play host to Oenococcus oeni, the bacteria responsible for

malic-to-lactic acid conversion. Unless extraordinary and expensive

precautions are taken, most winemakers would combine separate lots

of filtered oaked and unoaked whites to arrive at a blend with the

desired level of oak influence rather than hoping to arrive at an ideal

middle through chance in the barrel.

Red wines, though, present a bit of a different set of options. Oak

is useful throughout the production process, so some folks will be

using toasted or untoasted oak shavings at the crusher to alleviate any

underripe “green” aromatics or flavor compounds from

methoxypyrazines, which contribute cigar or tobacco at low levels

and green pepper or grassy, herb-y notes at highelevels. Winemakers can ferment in barrels either

removing the heads and punching down into

upright barrels or through reassembling the barre

and using a rotation system to keep the cap wet b

spinning. They can use larger puncheons to give

more subtle, “rounder” notes to the wine without

giving as “oaky” a presence – liquid volume to

surface area matters a lot.

Post-pressing, most reds are aged either in bar

or in tanks with some kind of oak adjunct inserte

as with barrel options so go the aduncts:

winemakers have choices that range from oak sou(American, French, Hungarian and beyond), to to

level, to toasted or untoasted heads in barrels, and

slew of options for creating oak effects sans barrels including “bean

cubes, spirals, blocks, sticks-in-chains to fit into barrel bungholes

staves of various shapes and sizes for tank inserts. Think back to

your first visit to a big toystore as a kid; now picture an adult kid a

you know how winemakers feel about their oak options. It’s great

have choices, but there are lots of decisions to make.Photo courtesy of Del

Dotto Vineyards

To oak or not to oak? So many decisions.

Josh Stein has been in the Napa wine business for a decade, and, in addition to being owner/

winemaker of the Stein Family Wine Group, which produces a nationally and internationally distribute portfolio of wine brands and donates 5% of its sales to the children of wineworkers in the form of colleg

scholarships and support funds, he regularly consults for wineries and organizations throughout the No

Bay and Coast via their subsidiary, Discrete Wine Support Services. With the other hours of his life, he

wine tasting experience at the 30-some small wineries is laid

back, casual and welcoming: a lot like the weather, which is

temperate and Mediterranean, perfect for grapegrowing.

Guglielmo Winery, founded in 1925, is the oldest continually

operating and family-owned winery in the area. Three brothers

oversee the bustling operation, which custom crushes and private

labels for many clients, as well as for the winery’s own labels.

George Guglielmo oversees winemaking operations, while Gene

works with the many retail shops and restaurants that have

carried the wines for decades, and Gary handles the business

operations as General Manager.Tasting here is relaxed, and the friendly staff pours something

for everyone, from old world style blends to top of the line Private

Reserve wines that continue to garner awards from renowned

competitions and publications. With accolades have come

increased awareness and foot traffic, and the retail business has

doubled over the last year.

Autumn is the perfect time to relax in the flower-filled piazza

by splashing fountains, enjoying a bottle of award-winning

Guglielmo wine as you watch hawks soar over the splendidly

colored vineyards that have witnessed countless weddings here.

BuENA ViStA WiNERY BY ALEXANDRA CHARSLEY

Sonoma has a rich cultural heritage and is one of the world’s

premier wine producing regions. Buena Vista Winery, California’s first

premium winery, is just five minutes from the historic Sonoma Plaza

and boasts a tranquil setting that’s ideal for wine tastings and picnics.

This historic winery is undergoing an epic restoration and has just re-opened their

Champagne Cellars calling for a celebration!

Agoston Haraszthy, self-proclaimed “The Count,” founded Buena Vista Winery in 18

and was a pioneer in California’s wine industry. He came to California in 1849 and saw

great potential in Sonoma for producing world-class wine. A visionary ahead of his tim

he created the first gravity-flow winery, excavated the first wine caves, was the first to

experiment with California redwood casks for aging and fermenting and shared premiu

European viticultural practices. Haraszthy and his son Arpad took a wine expedition to

Europe and returned with more than 300 different varietals in his quest to produce thebest wines. The Count’s passion for innovation and excellence led to the development o

California wine world as we know it today. In 1863, he created the Buena Vista Vinicult

Society, an association committed to expanding and modernizing the wine industry wh

was the first of its kind.

In 2011, Buena Vista Winery became part of Boisset Family Estates, a renowned and

charismatic family with a collection of historic wineries. The family is dedicated to resto

Buena Vista to reflect its past. They are focused on educating and entertaining guests wh

remaining true to the winery’s heritage. Once again, Buena Vista Winery is becoming th

embodiment of the California wine world, a vision that Count Agoston Haraszthy predi

150 years ago. Boisset sensed the power of this place and appreciated the historical

importance of Buena Vista to California and has preserved its

integrity at every opportunity.

Buena Vista wines are being driven to greater heights under

Winemaker Brian Maloney and Winemaking Consultant David

Ramey, including the re-introduction of a Sonoma label, in honor

of where it all began. These wines include an array of varietals that

celebrate the diversity of Sonoma’s terroir. Their Vinicultural

Society wines are exclusive to the winery and to club members.

These wines explore clonal selections, varietals, vineyards and the

incredible terroir of Sonoma County. Buena Vista has been making

wines under the Private Reserve name for decades and these

limited production wines are the ultimate within the portfolio.

Fruit for their Carneros wines is sourced from the 500-acre Ramal

Vineyard that extends along the southern reaches of the

appellation. Winemaker Brian Maloney has also extended Buena

Vista’s reach into other premium vineyards such as Wildcat and

Sangiacomo. These wines are perfectly balanced and have intense

vivid flavors. Your experience wouldn’t be complete without a

tasting of The Count, the Founder’s Red Wine. The deep color

leads to rich aromas of black currants and bing cherries.

As the historic center of California wine, Buena Vista Winery

offers several unique visitor experiences. Wine tastings are held in

the stone Press House and gourmet foods can be purchased, if youwould like to stay for a picnic or head upstairs to the salon.

Experience a Barrel Tour and Tasting in the newly renovated

Champagne Cellars. Taste wines from the barrel then enjoy

finished wines to witness the evolution from barrel to bottle. If

you would like to focus on the grape clones Buena Vista uses for

its wine, book a Clonal Tasting. Taste up to three Chardonnay and

three Pinot Noir clonal wines side-by-side to learn and savor the

differences. Buena Vista also offers a food and wine pairing. Taste

five current release wines paired with an assortment of cheeses

and accoutrements.

CHAtEAu St. JEAN All decked out for the holidays

BY MICHELLE J. BAKER

What’s the first clue that something truly special is going on at Chateau St. Je

in Sonoma Valley this holiday season? It’s hard to miss the giant inflatable Cinq

Cépages wine bottle towering above the winery’s parking lot and proclaiming tha

November and December are all about celebrating the 20th anniversary vintage

this iconic wine.

Cinq Cépages (literally, “Five Varieties”) has been Chateau St. Jean’s flagship wsince it was first produced in 1990. Each vintage is a blend of the five Bordeaux

varietals – Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petite Verd

in amounts adjusted each vintage to create a unique style that is at once plush,

elegant, complex and ageworthy. That doesn’t mean you have to sock it away for

years to enjoy it, as Cinq Cépages is also approachable and delicious now!

The storied history of Cinq Cépages includes the 1996 vintage being named t

Wine of the Year by Wine Spectator magazine, which three years later named th

1999 Cinq Cépages #2 Wine of the Year. That’s impressive accolades for veteran

winemaker Margo Van Staaveren, who recently completed her 33rd harvest at

Chateau St. Jean and has overseen the production of Cinq Cépages since its

Of course, all through the months of November and December

visitors will be able to sample the Cinq Cépages in the Chateau,

where also on the tasting menu are some of the small-production

Reserve Sonoma County Merlot, or the Pinot Noir or Syrah from the

esteemed Durell Vineyard in Sonoma Valley.

Across the way in the Visitor Center, folks gather at the tasting bar

shopping is pretty extraordinary in the Visitor Center, where visitors

can browse a wide selection of housewares, books, wine accessories

and food products including the winery’s own private label gourmet

olive oils and vinegars. And, when hunger strikes, pick up somelunch and a glass of wine at the Charcuterie and enjoy it out on the

patio by the winery’s famous parterre-style gardens.

In December, drop in at Chateau St. Jean for the Joyeux Noël

Open House weekends, December 8-9 and 15-16. Guests will

experience a taste of Christmas in the French tradition, with special

discounts, holiday wine flights of classic French varietals paired with

small bites, live caroling, bûche de noël, classic holiday movies and

much more. The winery will be dressed to the nines in holiday

trimmings and the winery’s entry to the Sonoma Winery Gingerbread

BOuCHAiNE ViNEYARdS

Keeping the Focus on Great Wine in CarnerosBY JOSH STEIN

A visit to Bouchaine Vineyards, the oldest continually operating winery and

southernmost vineyards in the Carneros region, brings you full-circle within the valley’s

winemaking history. First planted by Boon Fly in the mid-nineteenth century, the prope

like much of the Carneros District, was forgotten about until the end Prohibition when

property was purchased by Johnny Garetto in 1927. After Repeal, he operated the first

winery with a tasting room in the Carneros region. Garetto sold the winery to Beringer

Brothers in 1951, who used the winery for thirty harvests. In 1981, Tatiana and Gerret

Copeland, a successful business couple from Wilmington, Delaware, fell in love with th

property, and thus began the modern-day revitalization which greets visitors today.

An almost total renovation took time but was completed in 1995, updating andrefurbishing the entire winemaking facility and visitor spaces. Guests are now greeted by

the production facilities laid out within the surrounding vineyards such that the rest of

valley is forgotten about. What surrounds you are vineyards, views and breezes – and n

much else, the way Carneros was at the beginning. You will also see a sign that says that

pets are welcome “by appointment.” Since between two and four winery pups inhabit th

spacious property, the Bouchaine folks are sensitive to the fact that not all canines get alo

with each other. Your own is welcome (on a leash); just call first and they will take care

everything else.

It’s not just the casual atmosphere and attitude which harken back to Carneros’ histo

The wood that covers the winery buildings comes from old fermentation tanks which w

removed and soaked until they could be straightened. Winemaking

history is literally in the walls. Inside, the light-filled tasting room

gives a cozy embrace, complete with wood-burning fireplace,

necessary much of the year because of the direct proximity to San

Pablo Bay. Outside, there is a redwood deck and pergola which face

gardens, a well-trimmed lawn with a horseshoe pit and olive trees

with vineyards just a few yards beyond, stretching away in all

directions.

What really matters most, of course, is the wine, and visitors can

taste a lot of wonderful bottlings, including a number of tasting

room-only releases in their Bacchus and Estate Collection Wines.

Chardonnay and Pinot Noir star, here, of course, given the locale, but

there are also bottlings of Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris and Pinot Meunier,

an especially rare solo varietal. Equally, don’t miss the Rosé of Syrah

from the Rockin’ H Vineyard on the Sonoma Coast, the Sonoma

Syrah and a delicious dry Riesling. As every staff member will tell

you, all are made to show off cool-climate grapes and winemaking

which produces elegant wines made for food. Winemaker Michael

Richmond puts it best: “We want our wines to show lingering flavo

and depth, a smooth texture and just the right level of acidity to pa

with many foods, from the simple to the sublime.”

There are lots of things to enjoy at Bouchaine Vineyards, but

several experiences really set them apart. For those seeking food-an

wine fun, there is a special basket of wine country treats to pair wi

the outdoor seating area and vineyard views. Each basket includes

lunch alfresco for two served with a bottle of wine, either the Estat

Chardonnay or Carneros Pinot Noir. Multiple baskets can even be

ordered for larger groups. It’s that attention to the little things that

will bring you back to Bouchaine Vineyards again and again as it h

for visitors for a century and half. Enjoy!

(707) 255-1144 | www.hesscollection.com

David Guffy is in the midst of wrapping up his 14th harvest at The H

Collection winery on Mount Veeder in Napa. It is also his 28th harvest

since getting into the wine business back in 1984 in the Santa Cruz area.

Guffy’s job title at Hess is Director of Winemaking, meaning he oversees

vineyards and the winemaking process, which is a pretty big job especial

since the company produces so many wines.

“We are actually still bringing grapes in,” says David Guffy when aske

about the harvest of 2012. “Mount Veeder is cooler and the grapes can st

on the vine a little longer. The hang time on the vine truly pays off when

you get it in. During harvest I continually taste the grapes to keep an eye

the maturity of flavors and tannins to insure the best expression of aparticular vineyard.”

While Cabernet Sauvignon is king at The Hess Collection, the top tie

division of the company has a well balanced portfolio that features a Mou

Veeder Chardonnay, a Napa Valley Chardonnay and two big, bold blend

the 19 Block Cuvee composed of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Syrah,

Merlot and a touch each of Petite Verdot and Cabernet Franc. The Lion,

2004 vintage, is 94% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Petite Verdot.

The Hess Napa Collection includes a Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Syra

Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay as well as a Late Harvest Chardonnay. Th

Hess Small Block Series of wines includes Gewurztraminer, Malbec, Oran

Muscat, Pinot Grigio, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc, Syrah, Syrah Rose,

Viognier and Zinfandel. All of the grapes for the aforementioned wines come from family own

Hess Estate vineyards. Founder Donald Hess purchased his first vineyard

on Mount Veeder in 1978, and while the company presently owns more

than 900 acres there, only 330 are planted.

“The forest plays a role in the shading and the ripening of the grapes

Mount Veeder,” says David. “It is also a pretty wild place with mountain

lions, bears, deer, all sorts of wildlife, and it is important for us to share t

land with them. We can’t plant everywhere. We need to give back to the

forest and to the wildlife whose homes that we and other winegrowers h

invaded. The fruit we get from Mount Veeder is different from valley floo

fruit, and so are the vines. They are structured, complex, rich wines with

distinctive tannins, age ability and concentrated fruit.”

A California native who grew up down the road in San Jose, David sp

his summers with his grandparents on a 500 acre farm in Kansas. That’s

where he learned the values of farming and taking care of the land so it w

continue to give back. While at Hess, David has been in the forefront of

sustainable vineyard practices that has always been a big part of The Hes

Collection philosophy. The company actively participates in the Wine

Institute’s “Code of Sustainable Winegrowing Practices” and the Napa Va

Vintners Association’s “Napa Green Winery Program.”

“I enjoy the farming aspect of this job equally as much as the

winemaking part,” says Guffy. “Being environmentally conscious is not o

the right thing to do, but in the end, it produces the best tasting wine.”

the public about the significance of the Rutherford appellation as

Napa Valley’s preeminent grape-growing area. This consumer-focu

organization was created to promote the uniqueness of the area an

Rutherford Appellation Wineries’ ‘A Toast to Rutherford



Sutter Home Family Vineyards produced

the first White Zinfandel, launching aninternational wine trend that helped shape

the way wine is enjoyed – and perceived –

not only in California, but the world

over. Committed to preserving SutterHome’s legacy and providing

consumers affordable, yet quality

wine, the Trinchero family

continues to expand the Sutter

Home portfolio which today

includes 20 varietals such as

Chardonnay, Bubbly Pink

Moscato, Merlot, Pinot Grigio,

Chenin Blanc, White Merlot and

Gewürztraminer. In an effort to

provide consumers with exciting,

new wines to enjoy, Sutter Home

today announced the launch of

Pink Pinot Grigio and Red

Moscato.

Sutter Home’s Senior Director of

Marketing, Wendy Nyberg commented

“Sutter Home has stayed relevant with

consumers, by producing the wines they

want. Pink Pinot Grigio and Red Moscato

will resonate with wine drinkers –

especially Millennial of legal drinking

age – as these wines are accessible, inboth price and style.”

Sutter Home’s creation of White

Zinfandel may have been

serendipitous, but the winery’s

formula for success has always been

strategic, with one goal in mind:

Create approachable, affordable

wine that appeals to today’s

consumers.

The Trinchero family has always

believed expansion and leveraging

new trends is the best way to keep

the Sutter Home brand relevant and

remain on top in the industry,

according to Trinchero Family

Estates’ President and COO, Bob

Torkelson. “Our focus is to expand

the number of wine drinkers and to

help grow the wine industry

overall.”

Sutter Home brought innovation

and influence early on: Packaging diversi

with the adaption of the groundbreaking ml in PET bottles in 2005 and the

production of Moscato over 60 years ago.

Today, the Moscato category is indeed

growing. Impact Databank estimates

7.8 million (nine-liter) cases of Mosca

were sold in the U.S. last year, surpas

Sauvignon Blanc to become the #3 w

varietal with sales up 73%. Sutter Ho

has continued to be a leader in the

category, commanding a 23% share. I

the past year alone, Sutter Home

launched the following products: Pin

Moscato, Bubbly Moscato and Bubbly

Pink Moscato; and now Red Moscato

Not only is the Moscato category

growing, but so is Pinot Grigio, and

a pace faster than the #1 Chardonn

and #2 Cabernet Sauvignon. Pinot

Grigio surpassed Merlot to become

#3 wine varietal and has grown ove

10% in sales. Domestic sales of Sut

Home Pinot Grigio increased over

18%, according to Nielsen 26 weeending September 15, 2012.

The new Sutter Home Pink

Pinot Grigio, very similar to an

dry rosè, is made from grapes

carefully selected from

California’s premium Pinot

Grigio producing vineyards.

the palate, strawberries and

white peach balance well wit

the Pink Pinot Grigio’s crisp

acidity, creating a refreshing,

dry finish. Sutter Home Red

Moscato is the perfect harmo

of California Moscato and

Merlot. The Red Moscato is r

with strawberry and cherry

aromas and lingering sweet

berry fruit and rose notes on

palate.

BY MICHELLE J. BAKER

For all of Napa Valley’s world-renown as a wine-tastingdestination, did you know that the valley also has one of only three

“Old Faithful” geysers in the world?Located at the north end of the valley in Calistoga, Old Faithful

makes for a fun and fascinating afternoon stop between wineries.About every 30 minutes, visitors to “the geysers” are treated to a first-

rate show – an eruption of steam and extremely hot water spraying60 to 100 feet in the air.

The term “Old Faithful” refers to geysers that erupt on regular

intervals. Water for the Old Faithful Geyser of California comes froman underground river. When this water flows over the hot moltenmagma deep in the earth, it boils, expands and then collects in largecavities. Under tremendous pressure from the heat, the superheated

water is forced through the fractures and erupts with an outpouringof steam followed by hot spewing water.

Old Faithful is surrounded by palm trees and thick bamboo,making for a relaxing and partially shaded setting. There are picnic

tables with umbrellas and a covered seating area, all with excellentviews of the geyser. The gift shop is stocked with snacks such as icecream bars, chips and a variety of drinks, or if you want to make it a

lunch stop, bring in a picniclunch from town and a bottle of wine from one of the nearbywineries!

Don’t miss some of the otherinteresting features at Old

Faithful. Check out the wishingwells that were once used as hot

mineral therapy pools. There’salso an informative exhibit areaon geyser eruptions andearthquake predictions, as well as

a brief history of the town of Calistoga. And best of all, there’s apetting zoo with Tennessee

Fainting Goats, Jacob’s Four HornSheep and Guard Llamas.

Old Faithful Geyser of California is located at 1299 Tubbs Lane Calistoga. The gift shop is a great place to find unique Old Faithful

and Napa Valley themed souvenirs, including mugs, shot and win

glasses, postcards, T- shirts and sweatshirts in adult and child sizeshats and visors, keychains, water bottles, pens and much more.Old Faithful is open daily year round from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. in t

winter and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. in the summer. Admission is $10 foradults, $7 for seniors, $3 for kids ages six to 12 and children undeage six are free.

WINE COUNTRY THIS WEE




Look for s on Facebook an become a Fa42

During a recent red carpet gala at his Silverado Trail winery, guests

of Judd Finkelstein weren’t terribly surprised when he shared his plan

to create a pirate-themed, Napa-centric talk show. Coming from just

about any another Napa vintner, this news would have been

shocking, but this innovative, young winemaker is never short of

ideas on how to present the world of wine in original and interesting

ways. A few years ago he created Judd’s Enormous Wine Show, a fully

scripted tongue-in-cheek video series that gave viewers an insider’s

look into Napa’s wine industry through Finkelstein’s self-described

“foggy goggles”.

Having run its course of nine episodes, Judd’s Enormous Wine

Show was retired and Finkelstein, who just happens to have a

background in broadcasting and film production, was ready for

another challenge. His new idea was to branch out from his own

winery and showcase other Napa wine, spirits and food purveyors,

creating a vehicle to share the vibrant lifestyle of food wine and

culture that makes Napa such awonderful place to live and visit. He

felt that a talk show format would

best suit this new concept. But, being

the ukulele-playing, magic-

performing, tiki culture-loving guy

that he is, taking the standard talk

show path was not an option. He

wanted to do something novel, unlike

anything that Napa and the rest of the

wine world had ever seen. So,

Finkelstein commissioned the

building of a pirate ship set, calledcommercial jingle writer Gordon

Lustig to write a theme song, and

conscripted his old friend and fearsome pirate, Captain Whylee

Raven, into service as a sidekick. Finally, all of the pieces were in

place and Finkelstein was ready to contact fun loving Napa Valley

personalities to appear as guests on his new show, Wine Booty!

Although focused primarily on winso far, with the first two episodes

featuring winemakers Heidi Barrett of

Sirena and Chris Hall of Long Meadow

Ranch, upcoming episodes feature

personalities from Napa’s food world a

well as local producers of beer and

spirits. Episodes run about 13 minutes

long and open with the jaunty Wine

Booty sea shanty theme song. Pay clos

attention to the lyrics that tell the tale

how this show came to be. The first

order of business in each show is for thguest of the day to be adamantly direc

by the cutlass-wielding captain to craw

through a wine barrel that magically transports them aboard the

pirate ship, where Judd awaits to start the interview. Finkelstein is

natural and enthusiastic host; genuinely interested in the projects h

guests came to promote. As a lifelong Napa resident and wine

country insider, Finkelstein does a first-rate job of asking pithy

questions and making insightful observations about the topics

discussed. The lively banter is occasionally interrupted by an outbu

from Captain Raven’s ill-tempered parrot, and other surprises pop

from time to time to keep viewers on their toes. Most episodes end

with a trip to the Judd’s Hill tasting room, where Captain Raven

presents samples provided by the day’s guest for visitors to taste an

review on camera. With smiles all around, the fortunate tasting roo

guests quickly realize that they’ve discovered a Napa winery that do

things a bit differently.

Wine Booty is a breath of fresh air in an industry that can

sometimes take itself a bit seriously. It’s entertaining, informative an

definitely worth a look. You can find episodes by visiting

www.juddshill.com or go to iTunes and sign up to receive episodes

podcasts.

Yountville Kicks Off the Holiday Season Wine CountrStyle With 24th Annual Festival Of Lights Celebration

Welcome toY O U N T V I L L E



In a verdant valley full of wineries,

vineyards and tasting rooms, the JessupCellars tasting room is something different.

The wines are excellent, the people arefriendly (while also being efficient andknowledgeable about their wines, art andhospitality in general). But there are some

things you will find when you visit that setJessup apart from the rest.

As any staff member will proudlyproclaim if asked, Jessup is “all about the

experience.” Walk-in visitors are welcomedat the tasting bar, but for those seeking amore intimate occasion, the by-appointment

semi-private tastings are the way to bestenjoy the tasting room and staff. Taking placewithin Jessup’s art gallery, visitors get toenjoy a range of wines available only from

the winery in a relaxed, no attitudeenvironment. In fact, if you ask the rightpeople around the Valley, you’ll hear thesame response: it’s the staff at Jessup, their

willingness to answer any question, their joyat getting to share what they love about the

wines, which really makes the distinction.

It is fair to say – perhaps even anunderstatement – to consider a visit to this

charming tasting room with its fine wines,gracious wine country hospitality, collectionof art, handsome décor and casual feel is atrue treat for all of the senses. To be able to

sit, sample their exceptional wines alongwith a bit of food in such a setting, whereyou learn in such a way that it feels as if youare simply absorbing knowledge instead of

just being taught, is wonderful way to spendan hour or so here in a small town that is a

polar dne Aron srolls hroh belove Wne Conry own

A popular, three-hour Wine Country dining experience returns to

Healdsburg this December. The fourth annual Healdsburg Strolling

Dine Around will feature some of the area’s finest restaurants. Diners

will build their own culinary adventure by choosing four courses(appetizer, first course, main dish and dessert) from 20 participating

restaurants - each serving its own distinct cuisine.

Each course is 45 minutes. Between courses, diners will either

stroll, or take a short drive to the next restaurant – allowing time to

enjoy the charm of downtown Healdsburg – adorned beautifully for

the holidays in December. It’s an opportunity to relax, and get into

the spirit of the season.

Hundreds of people have participated in the Strolling Dine

Around each year, and it continues to grow, with an anticipated 400

attendees this year. Event coordinator Lori Moore said one of the

reasons for the event’s success is the diverse variety of dining options

in Healdsburg. “It’s a golden opportunity for people to enjoyHealdsburg while experiencing cuisine from around the world,

including a new Portuguese restaurant, Greek, Italian and more.

There are also seafood and American options. It’s shaping up to be

our biggest and best event yet.”

The four-course progressive Strolling Dine Around is Wednesday

and Thursday evenings, December 5, 6, 12 and 13, 2012. Start times

are 5:30 p.m., 6:15 p.m. and 7 p.m. The cost is $89 per person (ta

and gratuity included).

Attendees have a choice of appetizer, first course, main dish an

dessert from the following restaurants…appetizers: Agave Mexican

Restaurant, Bravas bar de Tapas, Campo Fina, Sake’O JapaneseRestaurant or Sizzling Tandoor Indian Restaurant; first course: Caf

Lucia, El Farolito Mexican Restaurant, Spoonbar, Willi’s Seafood &

Raw Bar or Zin Restaurant & Wine Bar; main dish: Baci Café & W

Bara, Barndiva, Mateo’s Cocina Latina, Relish Culinary Adventures

Restaurant Charcuterie or Taverna Sofia; dessert: Bear Republic

Brewing Company, Charlie Palmer’s Dry Creek Kitchen, Moustach

Baked Goods or Ravenous Café & Lounge.

People can visit www.healdsburg.com for a complete menu

showcasing the epicurean delights being served during the Strollin

Dine Around. It’s a good idea to make reservations early in order to

get first choice of date, time and restaurant selections. At the time

the reservation, participants will select a first and second choice. Aconfirmation of the reservation will be mailed to each attendee, alo

with a detailed map and guide to participating restaurants.

Visa and Mastercard are accepted, as are cash and checks, and

purchases are final. Wine will be available for purchase at

participating restaurants, and attendees may bring their own bottle

standard corkage fee may apply.

Dutcher Crossing Winery has everything a wine-loving visitor could hope for –

delicious, reasonably priced wines, a beautiful tasting room staffed with friendly and

knowledgeable employees, a gorgeous picnic area with stunning views of Dry Creek

Valley and a winery dog to welcome you. It’s no surprise that they were ranked #2 of

attractions in Healdsburg from www.tripadvisor.com.

Let’s start outside – you pull into the parking lot and notice the beautiful landscap

surrounding the brown, barn-like building that is the winery and tasting room. A

flagstone path leads you through a riot of colorful flowers to a breezeway that separa

the winery from the tasting room. Glass doors provide a view into the barrel room an

winery. Most likely, you’ll be greeted by Dutchess, a sweet, tail-wagging yellow Labra

Retriever, owned by Dutcher Crossing Winery’s Proprietor, Debra Mathey.

The picnic area is lovely and its views of the Dry Creek Valley are breathtaking. Th

are six picnic tables under a wisteria-covered arbor. The colorful, fragrant landscapin

and manicured lawns will make you want kick off your shoes and stay a while.

The tasting room is large, bright and airy, with high ceilings, glossy wood floors an

tasteful décor. A goodly selection of tasteful non-wine items is artfully displayed arou

the room.

During the week, there is a $5 tasting fee (waived for wine club members) to samp

a variety of six wines, and on weekends a $10 reserve tasting is available as well.

Winemaker Kerry Damskey does a wonderful job with these wines!

I really enjoyed all the wines I tasted, but the following three wines were my favori2011 Sauvignon Blanc, Estate ($23): Oooh! Pretty! Alluring aromas of pink grapefr

ripe melon and hints of mineral lead into a clean, juicy mouthful of consistent flavor

2009 Maple Vineyard Zinfandel ($40): Picture a warm blackberry pie, dusted with

cinnamon and pepper and you’ll have this wine in a nutshell, er, wineglass. Aromas

flavors of sweet, ripe blackberry and peppery spice abound, all wrapped up in a

luscious, velvety mouthful of Zin goodness.

2009 Proprietor’s Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon $29: In a word, wow! What a

fantastic Cabernet Sauvignon! Seductive scents of plum, black cherry, anise and spice

leap out of the glass and lure the taster into a voluptuously rich mouthful of ripe dar

fruit and spice flavors.

Sonoma Plaza, a National Historic Landmark, is

originally home to the last of the chain of 21

California missions. Throughout its colorful

history – including the Bear Flag Revolt where the

California state flag was first raised in 1842 – the

small-town epicenter is now home to some 25

gourmet dining establishments, 40 boutique shops

and art galleries as well as 18 unique tasting

rooms. A well-known tourist destination, visitors

come to Sonoma to experience the idyllic Wine

Country lifestyle. Sure, doublewide tractors may

grace the two-lane Highway 12, wide-openranchlands blanket the valley between towns, and

wooly sheep keep weeds and grasses minimal in

the vineyards. But, no doubt, you will also find

countless award-winning wineries and world-class

HelloCello has announced it is the firstlicensed distillery and operational still inSonoma since prohibition was repealed 80

spirit in Sonoma’s wine industry and amilestone for craft distillers. HelloCello hasbeen handcrafting specialty spirits including

Limoncello di Sonoma and Hooker’s HouseBourbon since 2009 when it opened as aboutique mico-distillery. The Federal andState permits to operate a still and distill fruit into brandy and other

spirits were the next logical step for the founders Fred and AmyGroth.

“There is a lot of wine, wine pumice and surplus fruit that currently

goes to waste. It can be transformed intobeautiful brandies, grappas and au-de-vies,claims Fred Groth. The Company hopes to

work with Sonoma and Napa wineries to

produce custom branded products like singvineyard ports and brandies.

“We offer a unique ability for wineries an

The distilling of fruit into brandy has a long and successful histoin Sonoma and Napa dating back to the mid 1800s. But for the mopart distilling has been a lost art since prohibition. HelloCello is usithe historic still from the Sprekel’s Estate for one of their first produ

The 100-year-old still was used to create Sugar Daddy Rum(Prohibition Spirits) which is aged in recycled Bourbon barrels andChardonnay Puncheons.

Upcoming Autumn Events at Wente Family Estate



Wnemakers Annonce ha Qaly of Wneraes hs Year s VeryHh; tonnae Harvese s 20 o 25 percen Above Averae

As grape growers harvest this season’s grape crop, dozens of

Mendocino County wine leaders agree that the 2012 season isshaping up to be one of the best on record. A lack of rain late in the

season, combined with warm days, cool nights and an ideal growingseason have produced bountiful crops throughout this Northern

California wine region. Known as the “Greenest Wine Region inNorth America,” Mendocino County is home to 91 bonded wineriesand 343 vineyard entities.

“It is a perfect season,” said Martha Barra, owner of Barra of Mendocino/Girasole Vineyards in Redwood Valley, Mendocino County.“For us, brix, total acids and pH are all in balance. So often we have toreally push things, but this year we have had no late rains. We were

able to wait for perfect maturity, and winemakers in our region arereally excited about making some incredible wines this year.”

Barra’s 100% estate grown, hand-picked certified organic grapes

include the legendarily delicate and sought after Pinot Noir. Barranoted that they will have their entire harvest from their vineyardscomplete by October 20th.

In technical terms, winemakers use the term brix to measure thesugar content, and Barra is seeing measurements of 25 and above this

season.“It is such an even keeled season,” said Zac Robinson, Husch

Vineyards in Philo. “This year it’s what we call a grower’s harvest.

We’re seeing super clean fruit, higher yields, no heat spikes, no rai

and no surprises.”“We also operate a custom crush facility for growers throughou

Mendocino, Napa and Sonoma Counties,” said Barra.”We are seein

the Zinfandel coming in late from all regions, but, in Mendocino

County, picking of all other varietals is falling right in line with theusual maturity pattern.

Expansive, diverse and off the beaten path, Mendocino is a rura

county of striking natural beauty, friendly small towns and peoplewho love and protect the land. Many farms are owned and cultivaby multiple generations of the county’s historic farming families.Today Mendocino’s grapegrowers stand out as leaders in

sustainable/organic/Biodynamic® farming. Winemakers highly regard the quality of fruit produced natura

on unspoiled land by Mendocino’s passionate grapegrowers.

JAXON KEYS Visit the Past, Present and Future

Jaxon Keys honors the past as they shape the future. Originallybuilt in 1880, the beautifully restored historic Farmhouse TastingRoom is a visual reminder of Mendocino’s rich and storied past.

The future lies with their estate-grown and produced wines that

garner numerous awards, as well as receive high praise from satisfiedcustomers. Visit the Farmhouse Tasting Room and try gold medaland best of class winning 2010 Mae’s Block Zinfandel or the doublegold Peterson Cabernet Sauvignon among others.

At Jaxon Keys, they have wine for everyone – Chardonnay,Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, white and red blends, Grenache,Zinfandel, Primitivo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Petite Sirah,Meritage and more.

With the arrival of November, the pace of life impossiblyquickens. How could it get any crazier, we wonder, as the impending

holidays drive us inexorably forward as if smacked by an invisible

whip. Some vineyards will still be hanging fruit, awaiting the finalpick of the season, while others will be thankfully pressing off lastfermentations into barrel, ready to put a fork in the 2012 harvest,

pop the cork and commence celebrating. It’s been quite a season,with great yields, good chemistry and outstanding flavors. We can’twait to begin barrel tasting after the wines get through malolactic.

This year brought a particularly bountiful harvest to Loma Prieta,

where they picked nearly seven tons of estate Pinot Noir, along withtwo tons of estate Pinotage. This high elevation site, at 2600 ft, is theonly vineyard in the Santa Cruz Mountains to grow both of thesevarietals. Loma Prieta also sourced another 23 tons of awesome

looking Pinotage from the Amarosa Vineyard in Lodi and the KarmaVineyard in Amador. Stay tuned for thePinotage Release Party,

December 1 and 2.Meanwhile, Burrell School holds its Fall Sippers Club party on

November 3rd and 4th, and a Cellar Alumni Sale on November 23rdthrough 25th, where there are sure to be some fascinating oldervintages to revisit.

Monalvo Ylee prevew, November 15, 5:30 l 8:30m Join Burrell School Vineyards, Loma Prieta Winery, Poetic Cellars,

House Family Vineyards, Savannah-Chanelle Vineyards andGuglielmo Winery for a tasty kickoff to the holiday shopping season

at the beautiful and historic Montalvo estate, all decked out inholiday attire. Preview an outstanding selection of unique vendors

with one-of-a-kind items, while bidding on the silent auction,enjoying fabulous appetizers from Pat Smith’s Extravaganza, and

grooving to the beat of Pentimento Jazz. This is rare chance to tasteall these great wines in one place. Tickets are $40. Reservations arerequired, (408) 961-5823 or [email protected].

passor o thanksvn, November 17The Summit to Sea wineries welcome you to “Passport to

Thanksgiving,” on Saturday, November 17. All the wineries will beoffering specials on Pinot Noir, the ultimate holiday table wine.

thanksvn dnner demans pno!There’s nothing like Pinot to make poultry sing – whether it’s

chicken, duck, turkey or all three in one! Have you ever done

Turducken? Give it a shot. It’s great with a stuffing of wild rice andcranberries, glazed with a combination of Tabitha’s Onion Jam andB&R Farms apricot red pepper topping, both available at PoeticCellars.

And speaking of stuffing, add some of that Loma Prieta Pinotageto your holiday beverage menu also: it’s got the stuffing to hold up towhatever is on the menu, including lamb, ham or goose. Plus, it’s funto say, and it makes a great wine for toasting all those friends and

family for which you give thanks, as you count your bounty of blessings. May you and yours be rewarded with an abundance of good health and happiness this holiday season.

November Brings A Cornucopia of Thanks Givin



BY LAURA NESS

A cozy place to stay in Monterey is

the Lone Oak Lodge, on North

Fremont Street, just off Highway 1, past

the Monterey Fairgrounds. This is yourbasic old-fashioned style motel that

makes car camping easy. You pull up to

your room, unload, boom, you’re done.

All one-story units, with pleasant bathrooms, clean, comfortable and

equipped with wireless everywhere. Fresh flowers in each room are a

nice touch, and each unit has a fridge and a coffee maker – thank

goodness!

Creature comforts are important, and this quiet, easy-to-find and

easy-to-love, family-friendly lodge has decent towels, great water

pressure and plenty of space to stash all your stuff. The fireplaces in

some rooms are quite cozy. Everyth

is clean and in working order.

The best part about Lone Oak is

location, location, location: you’re

only minutes away from all the sighand sounds of nearby Monterey

Peninsula and Pebble Beach, but yo

don’t hear any of it from the rooms

thanks to layout and setback off the highway. There are several

restaurants in proximity, including a serviceable Chinese for takeou

and drug store, bottle shop and breakfast spot within walking

distance if you’ve had enough time behind the wheel. You seriousl

can’t beat Lone Oak for value, convenience, comfort and quiet. A

good nights’ sleep is what you need most after an exhausting day

touring 17 Mile Drive, playing a round on a championship golf

course, gazing at the wonders of the deep at the Monterey Bay

Aquarium, playing tourist on Cannery Row and Fisherman’s Wha

and winetasting and people watching on the storied streets of Carm

Featuring family suites, single rooms and king suites with in-ro

spas and fireplaces, an on-site indoor Jacuzzi, dry sauna, exercise

equipment, Scuba Diver rise area, plus an outdoor barbecue area

make the Lone Oak Lodge an ideal home base when you’re in the

Monterey area.
