INTELLIGENCE FOR THE WINE CONSUMER

BY LEN NAPOLITANO
How should I store unfinished wine overnight?

Lets say that you finish your meal and youre left with about half a bottle of wine that you probably wont pour until the next night. What do you do with the leftover wine? Ill assume the cork pulled from the bottle has not been broken, or punctured through its full length. If either is the case, you first need to find a suitable closure, like an old cork saved from another bottle that is in pretty good shape. Also good are reusable rubber wine bottle closures sold in many wine shops and tasting rooms. You simply need a closure that seals the bottle opening well maybe not perfectly, but good enough for the short term. Of course, if the bottle has a twist cap closure, this is not an issue, as long as you havent already thrown away the cap! Now, if you plan to pour from this bottle the very next day, you can simply seal it and leave it on your kitchen counter, under one condition: the temperature of your kitchen will not rise above normal room temperature (70-72 degrees) in the course of the next 24 hours. If it does, put the bottle in the refrigerator. But if you do have cool area on the counter feel confident the next night that the wine will taste as good as it did the first night maybe even better! Some wines noticeably improve with just enough exposure to air, like the amount it would see sitting inside a half full bottle overnight (with a closure!). If your wine happens to be one of them and theres no way to predict which ones will improve significantly the second nights wine will be a real treat. But lets say you arent exactly sure when you will pour again from this bottle. Maybe the next night, but most likely it wont be for a few days. Then you should refrigerate the bottle after re-closing it with a good cork or rubber closure. Refrigeration will slow the aging process down enough for you to enjoy this wine again in several days. Dont expect it to improve, however, as the bottle left on the kitchen counter did overnight. But it should stay as fresh as it was the first night for 2-3 days. After that, a gradual decline through the process of oxidation will occur. Remember, the closure you use to re-seal the bottle is not perfect. Some microscopic amounts of air will creep inside the bottle over time. There are several tools on the market designed to keep unfinished wine fresh overnight. One pumps the air out from the bottle through a slit on the top of a custom pump-compatible rubber closure. This product works well, and will extend the life of the wine longer than if nothing else was done other than to re-corking the bottle. The wine bottle pump can add at least an extra day to the shelf life of the unfinished bottle, whether it is left at room temperature or refrigerated. Another wine-preserving gadget is a gas canister filled with a harmless and odorless gas. A tubular spout can be placed through the neck of the bottle as you send a few blasts of gas into the bottle. The gas pushes out the oxygen and replaces it, acting as a preservative. You then quickly seal the bottle with a suitable closure before letting the gas escape. I have found this process to work very well and use it regularly. As an added safety margin, I will refrigerate the wine, also. Bottles will remain fresh for 4-5 days.

Microclimates: How Location Impacts, Well, Everything!

Terroir. Its one of those words you hear used all the time, but no one ever really stops to define their usage, and more than sometimes, its used to cover up ignorance via pretense, which drives me nuts. Terroir is easy enough to define: every decision we make about location, varietal, trellising choices, amount of irrigation, when and how we pick, when and how we ferment you get the idea, I hope; thats all terroir. Its simply the total environment and the decisions about that environment, from planting to grapegrowing through to picking and winemaking. And, it all starts with where you decide to grow your wines. What makes a wine valley anyway, right? While its true you can grow grapes just about anywhere you can get water and soil together, that doesnt mean youll end up with wine-quality grapes. Napa was recognized quite early on in its settlement for what makes it so special. Yes, there is good heat from its northsouth orientation, but it is also a narrow valley to channel air flow, and it is close to the bay, which is what allows for the forty- and fifty-degree diurnal temperature swings that produce sun-soaked, fruit-laden red wines with retained acidity, produced through cool nights. Equally, consider Carneros and its sand and clay slopes so close to the bay. Cold climate grapes like Chardonnay and Pinot Noir produce scintillating wines precisely because of the locale, needing more cold to show their best. So, that naturally raises questions about location: which is better, you want to know, valley floor, benchland, ocean-exposed or hillsides, right? The answers depend on what you are trying to grow, where you want to do so, and how expensive your end product needs to be for it to sell and pay the bills. Access or best grapes is often a real question addessed by trade-offs in the growers mind. While being on level ground, closer to transport corridors, and with a bountiful supply of grapes sounds ideal; level ground often means drainage issues and the potential to overcrop, car exhaust ends up on grape skins and thus impacts wine flavor, and grape quality varies quite a bit by location and varietal most of the Valley is planted to hardier red grapes for a reason. Even there, though, there are exceptions as To Kalon, perhaps the greatest and most reknowned of American vineyards, breaks most of these rules in terms of location and drainage, accessibility and crop loads. Ultimately, the issue of micro-climate isnt just one of ocean exposure, bay fogs or evening breezes. Its part of a complex dance in the winegrowers mind, balancing creative desire, agricultural possibilities and economic reality. The next time you stop in at a tasting room, ask more Why questions and youll gain more insight into the philosophy behind whats in the glass. Absolutely, that sensory experience is the whole point of everything we do, but how we get there is often many opaque years in the making unless folks go digging beyond the standard taste descriptors. Trust me, you will appreciate what is in your glass even more so enjoy!

vgS CHATEAu PoTELLE

Civilized but not Completely Domesticated on Mt. Veeder and in St. Helena
BY JOSH STEIN
VGS CHATEAU POTELLE Open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. 1200 Dowdell Lane, St Helena CA 94574 (707) 255-9440 | www.vgschateaupotelle.com
VGS Chateau Potelle was born when Jean-Noel Fourmeaux du Sartel moved from France in 1980 to be part of the California winerush which overtook sleepy Napa after the Judgement of Paris. Welcoming the chance to be creative in making wine rather than tied to Old World rules, he found California wines at first too different from the wines he wanted to make, too bold and too oaky, that they would not pair well with food, so he went looking to Mt. Veeder to provide the balance of California sun and cooler, altitude-driven growing conditions to produce wines of fullflavored elegance, perfect matches to the California cuisine, with its emphasis on seasonality and freshness, then beginning its cultural ascendancy. Jean-Noel sums up his goals then and now thusly: Our vision at Chateau Potelle is to produce wines with style and character that are representative of their birth place. Our job as winemaker is to respect and exploit the unique qualities of our roots to craft wines with a sense of style and personality. As almost thirty-five years in Napa attests, Chateau Potelle has built a solid reputation for its avant-garde approach and for its commitment to quality. While the VGS bottlings of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Merlot, Syrah, and Zinfandel are well-known for their excellence, for those seeking wines further away from the conventional, try the VGS Explorer series. All VGS Chateau Potelle wines are available only at the Tasting House & Garden, online on www.vgschateaupotelle.com and in select restaurants. Current wines include Grenache Blanc, Inevitable white blend, Ros, Sauvignon Blanc, The Illegitimate red blend and a late harvest Zindandel. In order to showcase these wines in a more welcoming, updated locale, the winery just opened its new VGS Tasting House & Garden and teamed with Michelin award-winning La Toque Restaurant to create gourmet food pairings with each wine being tasted. Open daily, the Tasting House is located in St. Helena on the corner of Highway 29 and Dowdell Lane, two blocks south of downtown. Jean-Noel explains the reasoning behind explicitly pairing small plates with the wines: The Tasting House and Garden reflect the style of our wines: elegant, restrained, and extremely well done in all details. Since our wines are made for food, every wine tasting includes a food pairing. Who better to provide the food bites than Ken Frank, one of the most creative and winesavvy chefs in Napa Valley? He also echoes the Chateau Potelle mantra: fun, easy, sometimes

irreverent but never pretentious. Indeed, each wine is paired with a food creation that helps guests understand the complimentary flavor elements while also causing smiles. VGS Chardonnay is paired with Cauliflower Horseradish Veloute, Maine Lobster and Root Vegetables. VGS Cabernet Sauvignon is paired with Niman Ranch Prime New York Strip Loin, Smokey Aioli, Potato Crisps and Trumpet Mushrooms on Rye. Sauvignon Blanc is accompanied by a chilled English Pea Shooter with Laura Chenel Chevre and Madras Dust. Equally as exciting, the wine and food pairings change approximately every ten days, so each visit will showcase showing new and seasonally driven, revealing the range of possibilities in the wines. Guests have the opportunity to taste inside at small banquettes or outside in the newly landscaped garden, and reservations are highly recommended. Of course, the interesting possibilities dont stop there, but club membership is needed to fully enjoy all the winery has to offer, including a special Club Room and separate garden area for tastings, as well as the seasonal five-course Lunch Above the Clouds overlooking the Mt. Veeder vineyards. I think you can see why this is the winery locals often only whisper about, wanting to keep the good times on the down low. So, dont be fooled by the location, and good luck pining down these kind folks as to what VGS actually stands for, but thats all part of the fun and a big part of why Jean-Noel and the winery are still around after more than three decades: they take the wines very seriously. Themselves? Not so much. Enjoy!

Vineyards, Winemaking and Guest Experience A Winning Combination
BY MICHELLE J. BAKER
BALDACCI FAMILY VINEYARDS Open daily from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. by prior appointment 6236 Silverado Trail, Napa www.baldaccivineyards.com | (707) 944-9261
This is what I imagine Stags Leap District to be like about 30 years ago. An unpretentious, slightly askew winery sign along the road. A dirt and gravel driveway leading through the vineyard. A cozy tasting room just a bit larger than a breadbox. And a few people genuinely happy you found them and quite proud to show you their wares. Welcome to Baldacci Family Vineyards, started in 1997 when Tom and Brenda Baldacci purchased this sweet 17-acre parcel with ample hills and vales to provide the ideal setting to grow great Cabernet Sauvignon. In 2000, the Baldaccis added a 7,000-squarefoot wine production cave in the hillside behind the tasting room. The estate vineyard now produces classic Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon silky-textured with ripe black fruit flavors and refined tannins, ready to enjoy now or ageworthy up to 10 years. The highly acclaimed wines at Baldacci are the handiwork of renowned winemaker Rolando Herrera, who got his start down the trail at Stags Leap Cellars. Herrera went on to make wine at Chateau Potelle, Vine Cliff and Paul Hobbs before returning to the Stags Leap District to work with the Baldaccis. Herrera also makes his own wine under his own label, Mi Sueo, and has a vineyard management company that manages the Baldaccis 20-acre Carneros vineyard (planted to Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah, Gewrztraminer and Merlot). Baldacci produces two Stags Leap District Cabernets in all. Their flagship wine is the Brendas Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, which is tough to get your hands on at just 180 cases produced annually. Brendas Vineyard represents the best of the best the best seven barrels from the best vineyard block on the estate. The Black Label Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is the Baldaccis ambassador wine, representing the best fruit from different blocks of the estate vineyard. The Baldaccis Carneros vineyard came on line in 2008, and now the tasting room offers a few wines from the Carneros estate: including the 2010 Elizabeth Pinot Noir (named after Toms mother), the 2011 Sorelle Chardonnay (named after Toms sisters), the 2009 Allwin Syrah (named for Toms grandmother) and the 2009 IV Sons Fraternity Red Blend which uses the Merlot and the Syrah from the Cuttings Wharf property and blends that with the Cabernet Sauvignon from the Estate in the Stags Leap District. The IV Sons wine is named after the Baldaccis four boys it really is all in the family! Baldaccis winery permit requires that visitors have a prior appointment. Its easy to get an appointment, often on the same day, by calling (707) 944-9261. The staff will be genuinely happy to see you, and quite proud of their wines and their newly remodeled tasting room.

Pope Valley Winery Presents Brunch & Bubbles

Now opening at 10 a.m. each day, Pope Valley Winery, located at 6613 Pope Valley Road in the northeastern region in Napa County, is celebrating with Brunch & Bubbles, offered twice daily at 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. Brunch & Bubbles includes a full glass of Pope Valley Sparkling Blanc de Blanc, orange juice, a variety of pastries, fresh fruit, brie and crackers. Also included with Brunch & Bubbles is a special wine flight where guests can customize their tasting by picking from all the current Pope Valley vintages, plus a vineyard tour in the winerys sixpassenger golf cart. The cost of Brunch & Bubbles is $30 per person with required 24 hour advance reservations. Reservations may be made at www.cellarpass.com/Pope-Valley-Winery.aspx or by calling Pope Valley Winery at 707/965-1246. We are now opening at 10 a.m. every day and to kick it off, we decided to crack open some of our sparkling wine and offer a light brunch for our early guests, said Diana Eakle Hawkins, proprietor of the winery, along with her winemaker brother, David Eakle. Its a great way to being a wonderful day of wine tasting in Wine Country. Brunch will be held in a variety of locations on the property including the patio, the 100-year-old farm house, in the wine cellar, under the 100-year-old oak tree and sometimes, even in the vineyard. Got kids, thats no problem. A family friendly brunch is available for children under 15 years of age for just $10. Pope Valley Winery was founded in 1897 by Ed Haus. His original farm house still graces the property, as well as a blacksmith shop, complete with the tools of the trade. The winery itself is housed in an historic building that was designed to utilize the slope of a hill to move the grapes through the process of becoming fine wine, long before electricity was brought to the site. Now operated by the Eakle family, Pope Valley Winery produces 5,000 cases of some of the finest wines in the Napa Valley, all of which are from estate grown fruit, with some from vines that are nearly 70 years old.

Perfect Pairs
BY ALEXANDRA CHARSLEY
Pan Seared Beef Tenderloin with Shallot & Fig Sauce Paired with Monticello Vineyards 2010 Estate Grown Cabernet Franc
I love Cabernet Franc and while this varietal is usually used in blending Bordeaux style wines, Monticello Vineyards Winemaker Chris Corley has crafted this grape into a wellbalanced expression of Cabernet Franc at its finest. The newly released Monticello Vineyards 2010 Estate Grown Cabernet Franc has been perfectly paired with this beef tenderloin recipe. Beef tenderloin is a prime example that good, simple ingredients can make the best meals and since this recipe doesnt require much prep time prior to cooking, it leaves more time to enjoy the wine and your guests. The rich, full-bodied wine strikes the mid-palate with vibrant tannins that pleasantly frame its structure and rounds out that hint of sweetness from the shallot and fig sauce. The wine reveals an intriguing dark note of blackberry fruits mixed with smoky undertones on the palate resulting in a lasting, memorable finish. This dish was a breeze to make and pairing it with the Cabernet Franc will make your Sunday dinner a true culinary feast! The 100% Cabernet Franc is estate grown at the Home Ranch Vineyard surrounding the winery. Visiting the Monticello Vineyards estate on the quieter side of Napa is the best way to experience their luxurious wines. They are a small family owned and managed winery with five estate vineyards exclusively in Napa Valley. The Corley family is devoted to producing high quality wines that are true to the grape variety and terroir of the estate vineyards. Three different labels are represented in their portfolio and all can be tasted in their tasting room, Jefferson House, or outdoor gardens. Private seated tastings are also offered as well as wines by the glass to enjoy in the picnic grove or courtyard. Monticello Vineyards wines are distinctive representations of Napa Valley wine, styled to be rich, full-bodied, yet wellbalanced and elegant. The Corley Reserve wines are made only in years when individual lots of their grapes are particularly exceptional and are extremely limited in production. The flagship of the Corley designated wines is their Corley Proprietary Red Wine. Within this label they also produce single vineyard, single block and clone designated wines to capture the essence of each characteristic in a special bottling. Corley Family Vineyards is located at 4242 Big Ranch Road, Napa and is open daily from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Sit-down reserve tastings are available by appointment.

WILLIAM HILL ESTATE WINERY
William Hill Estate Winerys Vineyard Experience App creates an interactive wine tastng journey with behind-the-scenes access to its vineyard
1761 Atlas Peak Road, Napa, CA 94558 (707) 224-4477 | www.williamhillestate.com
Nestled between the Atlas Peak Mountains and the Napa Valley floor in a pocket called the Silverado Bench sits William Hill Estate Winery. They are on the quieter side of Napa and offer panoramic views, sophisticated wine and a relaxing wine tasting experience. This contemporary winery has something for everyone and they are combining premium Napa wines with an interactive, fun and educational tour using The William Hill Estate Vineyard Experience Mobile App. Free to download from the Apple Store, guests are encouraged to download the app to their personal mobile device prior to coming to the winery. If you dont have a smartphone, you will still be able to experience the tour on one of their available iPod Touch devices. Visitors can now get an unprecedented look at what goes into crafting an exceptional wine. One of the industrys first downloadable tours, this app gives wine connoisseurs behind-the-scenes access to its vineyard. This app creates an interactive journey beginning in the William Hill Estate Tasting Room where you can enjoy a sip of the winerys acclaimed Napa Valley Chardonnay. From there, the tour heads deep into the vineyard for a first-hand look at the estates red Bordeaux varietals, where you can touch the soil and explore the grapevines up close. Learn about the history and viticulture of William Hill and the remarkable growing conditions that make the Silverado Bench unique. The app also allows you to peruse a map of the estate, take photos in the vineyard and visit William Hill Estates online store. The feature I like best is the ability to seamlessly snap and share pictures of your experience on Facebook and Twitter. The tour culminates with a tasting of some of William Hill Estates best wines. Their appointment-only tasting room is bright, clean and modern and they currently offer two different wine flights; Taste the Napa Valley and Taste the Silverado Bench. Their Napa Valley wines embody the unique terroir of Southern Napa from the most prestigious vineyards in Carneros and other acclaimed Napa appellations. The result is a collection of expressive wines that deliver layer upon layer of exquisite fruit on the palate. Among their best wines, the bottlings in the Bench Blend Collection illustrate the lush, expressive fruit characteristics of Napa Valley. These wines are soft, elegant and beautifully integrated. Winemaker Ralf Holdenried melds grapes from hand selected vineyard blocks that deliver intense flavor characteristics. Enjoy your wine tasting on the outdoor patio, garden area, or grab a seat under a pergola shaded by climbing vines overlooking the rolling vineyards. They are dog friendly and even encourage guests to pack a picnic to savor their time in wine country on their estate!

NANCY BoERuM
CONCIERGE, MACARTHuR PLACE INN & SPA
Ramon Meraz
CONCIERGE, HyATT VINEyARD CREEK, SANTA ROSA
WCTW: If you were to visit just one winery, which

would you choose and why?
WCTW: What is your favorite varietal? NB: For a long time now, my favorite varietal has
been Pinot Noir, and I suspect this is not likely to change! Pinot is a wine that is, with a few exceptions, very food friendly. Whats even better is its so available here in Sonoma and we have the ideal climate to grow this somewhat complex varietal, whether it be nearby in the Carneros or further away in the Sonoma Coast and the Russian River areas. Both have the cool marine climate that this grape requires as its skin is too thin for our hot valley sun. The cooler the site, the longer the growing season which gives this grape a better chance to attain overall structure and mature tannins. I love the Pinot Places, as I call them, in the Carneros: Saintsbury, Acacia, Etude and Adastra where you can enjoy a genuinely personal experience with tasting room staff just 10-15 minutes away from MacArthur Place. The scenery and views provide a gorgeous backdrop for a wine tasting experience. North of us on Highway 12 in Glen Ellen, there is a new tasting room, Talisman, that has the most amazing single-vineyard Pinots! Try the side-byside tasting there and youll be hooked. I dont know which I liked better, the seductive nose or the elegant flavors on each! From the bright ruby hue to the earthy minerality to the silky mouthfeel the hallmark of a well-crafted Pinot Noir I cant think of a better way to end the day in wine country than with a glass of this alluring varietal.
WCTW: Whats your favorite overall varietal? RM: I am a Pinot guy, sometimes a Zin, I do like
Cabs, balanced Viogners are really sexy Adrian Fogs Pinot is something I am really fond of. WCTW: What winery do you think has the best over-the-top experience to offer visitors? RM: Js Bubble Room WCTW: Where do you send guests that want to learn about wine? RM: Korbel if they want to learn about bubbles, Benziger for still wines. WCTW: Where would you take friends to learn about/taste organic wines? RM: Littorai, amazing high-end tour and very detailed not to mention delicious wine! WCTW: What areas would you recommend that are not part of the popular wine country? RM: Coombsville, Green Valley, Sebastopol, west of Dry Creek, Howell Mountain, south of Petaluma WCTW: Who is your favorite new winery or hot spot wine bar/tasting room? RM: DArgenzio on Thursday nights is a happening place old and new all at the same time. Food trucks come up to provide food. WCTW: Tell us the best wineries to bring pets. RM: Kaz, Lambert Bridge, Stryker, Wilson there are more than you can imagine! WCTW: Which winery has your favorite cave/cellar tour? RM: Repris, B Wise, Jarvis, Realm cant decide! WCTW: Whats the best wine country picnic spot? RM: Gustafson! Bennet Lane for sure! Lambert Bridge argh, so many!
MZN: Diamond Creek Vineyards. I choose this winery because the winery has such a rich history, opening in 1968. The location is spectacular, in a very high elevation on Diamond Mountain. During the tour of the vineyard, guests travel around the property in a Jeep, enjoying all the beauty Diamond Creek Vineyards. The Cabernet Sauvignon is top rated, with smooth tannins, lush fruit and delicious on the palate. WCTW: What's your favorite overall varietal and
where do you like to go to taste it?
MZN: Pinot Noir. I love having it at Artesa in Napa, Handley in Anderson Valley, Dehlinger in Sonoma, Flowers on the Sonoma Coast and Melville in Santa Ynez Valley, to name a few. WCTW: Which wineries have the best winerelated gifts for shopping?
MZN: The tasting room at Viansa has a lot of wonderful wine-related gifts items. WCTW: Whats the best wine country picnic spot? MZN: Chappellet Winery. The views looking down on Lake Hennessey from the picnic table is breathtaking! The winery is tucked away on Sage Canyon Road in Pritchard Hill. This winery also has a rich history, since 1967, offering amazing wines.

Remember: Please sip responsibly! Plan to taste at no more than three wineries based on these recommendations.

Concise Answers to Serious Wine Questions in New Guide for Beginners

A new book from a California wine columnist and former wine specialist on TVs Fine Living Network cuts through a web of peculiar wine terminology and complex subjects with explanations that get to the point quickly and clearly. In Nose, Legs, Body! Know Wine Like The Back of Your Hand ($14.99 print, $6.99 ebook; Wineology Press, July 2013), author Len Napolitano reveals wine in an informal, question-and-answer format while recounting with sincerity and whimsy his personal experiences as a self-conscious amateur who transitioned to practical wine professional. Napolitano builds confidence in wine beginners by fitting a bounty of useful information into 50 concise answers to common wine questions and concluding each chapter with enlightening, hands-on wine tasting exercises to do at home. With four out of five wine drinkers saying they want to learn more about wine, this timely and practical guide acquaints novices to new possibilities for joyful experiences in socializing, dining and everyday living with wine. From learning the basics to exploring the fine points of a great wine, Nose, Legs, Body! helps wine beginners: Strengthen their passion for wine by knowing its most pertinent terms, processes and styles Gain confidence in making wine selections, whether at restaurants, stores or online Enhance their wine and food pairing experiences Learn wine subtleties through experiential suggestions Throughout my years as a wine columnist, so many people Ive met and heard from have passion for wine but understand relatively little about it, says Napolitano. And most dont want to read a thick, detailed text to learn it, either. They prefer a fast and clear approach that focuses on the topics that interest them most. I believe my simple Q & A format, plus tasting exercises and quick-reference tables will deepen their passion for and knowledge of wine without taking a lot of time or effort. Len Napolitano was the wineologist on TVs Fine Living Network (now Cooking Channel) from 2003 to 2011 and has been a wine columnist since 2001. Now also a consultant to winemakers in the application of oak to wine, his clients include wineries of all sizes from across the country. Nose Legs, Body!

Make Your Own Wine

BY SUSIE DINEEN
Have you ever dreamt about owning your own winery? Well, these days you dont need to own a winery to make your own wine. Nestled among the vineyards along Napas famed Silverado Trail youll find Judds Hill Winery and MicroCrush. This small, family-owned and operated winery specializes in creating small lots (as little as one barrel) of hand-crafted, ultra-premium custom wine for wine enthusiasts, vineyard owners and budding wine entrepreneurs. Their service lets you skip over the expense, red tape and overhead associated with owning a winery and jump right to the fun part of creating your own wine! Their journey into personal winemaking dates back to 1991 when Judds Hill Winery founder, Art Finkelstein, was asked by a neighbor vineyard owner to use his grapes to make a barrel of single-vineyard wine. Usually the neighbors fruit was sold to a winery to be blended with grapes from other vineyards and there was never an opportunity to taste the unique qualities of his vineyards harvest. Art put his winemaking equipment and talents to work on this special project and when the wine was finished the two men evenly split the barrel, which is about 24 cases of wine in total. This first venture into custom, small-lot winemaking was a personal favor, but word travelled quickly throughout Napa and beyond Now, in their third decade, these pioneers in personal winemaking have become the popular choice for grape growers, backyard vineyard owners and enthusiasts, looking to share their wine with family and friends. It has also become a great fit for businesses looking to market their company in a unique way, as well as those who want to create their own small wine brand. So how does this all work, you might ask? Judds Hill makes producing your own wine easy. They offer all-inclusive, expert winemaking services from the time you bring in your fruit until the time its bottled. If you dont have your own fruit, its not a problem. With over 30 years in the wine industry, Judds Hill has been able to establish long-term relationships with growers around the Napa Valley (and beyond) and is able to source from a variety of premium vineyards. If you are interested in getting something into bottle sooner, they offer a selection of premium wines from their cellar that can be custom blended to perfection. You are invited to work closely with the MicroCrush team every step of the way, making decisions on everything from barrel choices to packaging. Meet one-on-one with the winemaker to sample your wine and make stylistic decisions as your wine develops, then revisit your wine prior to bottling to craft the perfect blend for your palate. If your schedule or distance doesnt allow you to participate, let Judds Hill MicroCrush take the wheel. Their celebrated reputation, proven expertise and stability can give you the confidence that your fruit is in good hands. In fact, Judds Hill MicroCrush was recently selected by Food and Wine Magazine as, THE place for custom winemaking in Napa Valley. Oh, and as an added bonus ... MicroCrush vintners not only get to enjoy making their own custom wine, but they also get to benefit from the same perks offered to the Judds Hill Wine Club. These include discounts on wine and local lodging, as well as invitations to all of the Wine Club and MicroCrush events! You also get special pricing on Bottle Blending Day Camps, which are mini versions of MicroCrush. This is a great way to have your friends and family experience what you are doing, but on a smaller scale. Judds Hill offers a fun, personalized and educational experience for those who have always dreamed of creating their own wine. Start your journey today by contacting Judds Hill MicroCrush at microcrush@napamicrocrush.com or call (707) 255-2332.

formed structural concrete walls, the backlit tasting bar, porcelain floor tiles, Venetian plaster walls, imported Italian windows and custom-made tables and chairs, crafted from repurposed, early 20th century wood beams and architectural steel. Hestan Vineyards was founded in 1996 when owners Stanley and Helen purchased a 127-acre cattle ranch on the eastern slopes of Napa Valley, with the goal of growing and making wines to rival their favorite Bordeaux bottlings. Today, 56-acres are planted to all five of the principle red Bordeaux varietals: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec. With the help of renowned winemakers Thomas Rivers Brown, Jeff Gaffner and Mark Herold, the Chengs have built a portfolio that includes their flagship Hestan Cabernet Sauvignon ($100/bottle) and Chardonnay ($50/bottle); Meyer Cabernet Sauvignon ($50/bottle); and Stephanie Proprietary Red ($60/bottle), Cabernet Sauvignon ($50/bottle) and Merlot ($40/bottle). While the reds are grown at their Hestan Vineyards estate in Napa Valley, the Hestan Chardonnay is produced from grapes grown at the Chengs small San Francisco Bay vineyard, planted at the southern tip of Hwy 29 on the grounds of their Meyer Cookware Company. The Hestan Vineyards portfolio is sold via the winery website and mailing list and in select markets nationally. Hestan Vineyards Tasting Room is open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and is located at 6548 Washington Street in Yountville.

For all of Napa Valleys world-renown as a wine-tasting destination, 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 firstrate show an eruption of steam and extremely hot water spraying 60 to 100 feet in the air. 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 excellent views of the geyser. The gift shop is stocked with snacks such as ice cream bars, chips and a variety of drinks, or if you want to make it a lunch stop, bring in a picnic lunch from town and a bottle of wine from one of the nearby wineries! Dont miss some of the other interesting features at Old Faithful. Check out the wishing wells that were once used as hot mineral therapy pools. Theres also an informative exhibit area on geyser eruptions and earthquake predictions, as well as a brief history of the town of Calistoga. And best of all, theres a petting zoo.

Here Gary Ericksons crew will welcome the peloton and their families for a final session of story-telling and jersey signing by George and Bob all of which will be enjoyed with more great food and fine wine from Clif Family Vineyards. And Velo Vino has a special dessert food and wine pairing planned as the Grand Finale. I always love riding in Napa Valley, and frankly, the Legendary Tour is the best cycling event I have ever experienced. I am honored to be asked back as a guest rider with George Hincapie, says Bob Roll. And I know from last year that the special dinner, plus the beautiful ride through Napa Valley, will make this an unforgettable experience for everyone. I especially look forward to sitting around with a glass of wine with George and the group, to talk about bike racing and to share insights into pro cycling. Thats what makes this event so special. The cost is $1750 per rider, and all proceeds from this event benefit the Napa County Bicycle Coalition and its goals to make Napa County more bicycle-friendly for cyclists of all types and persuasions. For more information or to purchase tickets, go to legendarynapabike.org or call (707) 812-1770. Tickets are sold on a first-come, first served basis, and only thirty places are available.

David Fulton Winerys Petite Sirah The Medals Are Piling Up!
The Orange County Fairs Commercial Wine Competition is the largest and most comprehensive judging of California wines in the world. The OC Fair Wine Competition is now renowned worldwide, and is considered by many to be one of the countrys premier judgings. The first OC Fair Commercial Wine Competition was held in 1977. In 2013, they received 2,520 entries from wineries located throughout California. Out of which only 729 Silver Medals were awarded. It was an outstanding event and continues to hold the reputation as the largest and most prestigious competition for California wine in the country. In addition to this newest Silver medal, David Fultons 2009 Petite Sirah has also received: 93 POINTS Wine & Spirits Magazine, 2012 SILVER International Womens Wine Competition SILVER San Francisco Chronicles International Wine Competition SILVER American Fine Wine Competition SILVER The San Diego International Wine Competition The 2009 Old Vines Petite Sirah holds true to David Fultons previous releases, with elegance. This vintage provides a wider range of bright, high-tone fruit flavors emanating from the expected deep, dark color of the varietal. We are pleased by blackberry, fig, cinnamon, dark bakers chocolate and licorice aromas and rewarded with flavors of red cherry, boysenberry, raspberry and distinct vanilla on the palate, says David Fulton Winerys Stephanie Trotter Zacharia. With soft tannins, this is a round, velvety, silky wine that can be enjoyed for many years to come. We have one vineyard and make just one wine here at David Fulton Winery. Our total production is less than 300 cases a year. (The Valleys largest winery produces nine million cases a year!) We hand-sort our grapes three times before fermentation and have a three year aging program before release. Stephanie continues. The David Fulton Winery 2009 Petite Sirah is grown in the historic St. Helena, estate vineyards planted in 1860. David Fulton also built the towns first stone wine cellar next to the vineyard. He invented the celebrated One-Horse-Plow which reduced spacing between rows from 14' to 8' thereby revolutionizing plantings in the Napa Valley. The current winery was built on the footprint of the original reusing some of the same materials, looking much like it did in the early years. The vineyard and winerys current owners are David Fultons greatgrandson, Fulton Mather and his wife, Dink. David Fulton Winery & Vineyards is located at 825 Fulton Lane, just four blocks east of Hwy 29, in Napa Valleys historic St. Helena. Visitors are encouraged to visit the winery although tours and tasting are by appointment only. You should note that the winery doesnt have commercial signage, so youll have to look for the address (825 Fulton Lane). For more information, go to www.DavidFultonWinery.com, find them on Facebook, or call (707) 967-0719.

Trinchero Family Estates Launches Fancy Pants Wine

New Consumer Favorite from the Producers of Mnage a Trois, #1 Selling Red Wine (Nielsen Ending CY 2009-2012)
Trinchero Family Estates today announced the anticipated national launch of Fancy Pants wines. During a test launch with a national leading retailer, the Fancy Pants brand quickly took off, becoming one of the top five new brand launches of the last 12 months according to Nielsen data (Total Retail, 52 weeks ending 05-25-13). Tapping into both lifestyle and pop-culture trends, the brand was developed to appeal to the growing segment of consumers who view wine not just as a special occasion purchase, but a way to make everyday occasions a little more fancy. The national launch includes a 2011 Red Blend and a 2012 Pinot Grigio two varietals which are driving growth in the $7-10 price segment. Fancy Pants has certainly struck a chord with consumers, commented Jason Hart, marketing manager for Fancy Pants. Its a memorable brand name with a stunning package, but more than anything Fancy Pants is about bringing fun and fancy to any occasion. Sourced from prime California vineyard locations, Fancy Pants is produced by Napa Valley-based Trinchero Family Estates. The Fancy Pants Red Wine is a blend of Zinfandel, Cabernet and Merlot. The Zinfandel brings blackberry jam flavors, the Merlot adds a generous mouthfeel, and the ST. HELENA Cabernet contributes rich flavors and firm tannins to round out the Varozza CHARLES KRUG RATT wine. It is great on its own or as P an accompaniment to grilled DAVID FULTON Cala a Cellars N meats or chicken. FULTO BERINGER ONA The Fancy Pants Pinot Grigio R D A M Materra Tamber Bey is gently harvested in the early Orin Swift MS ADA morning and immediately sent to Covenant press for gentle processing St. Helena Wine Center PE PO allowing the wine to develop Velo Vino Handwritten Clif Family bright, clean fruit character. Crisp MERRYVALE Bello Family and refreshing, this Pinot Grigio CHATEAU POTELLE Salvestrin AK is the perfect accompaniment to TER O Charter Oak CHAR Long Meadow Ranch G gnocchi with butter and sage, or a SPRIN good book.

BY DENISE OLLIFFE
From May through November, The Wine Carriage is a fun, intimate excursion through select vineyards of the Alexander Valley in Sonoma County. Owner and well-informed tour guide Bret LeRolland, is coachman of a shade-top carriage pulled by mighty draft horses meandering between rows of vines and up and down scenic countryside while guests pluck grapes right from their seats.

The outings begin at 11 a.m., starting with a visit to Alexander Valley Vineyards where guests are taken to the underground, arched wine cavern filled with the aroma of aging wine in oak barrels, and treated to samples straight from the cask. Then, guests board the carriage for a crosscountry excursion to Hanna Winery, which boasts commanding views of the entire valley. After a wine tasting at Hanna, a decadent gourmet lunch is served outside in the shade of a majestic oak. Fresh baguettes, herbed meats, local artisan anad imported cheeses, mixed organic olives and organic strawberries are served topped off by winefilled chocolate truffles for dessert. Wine can be purchased by the bottle or glass at the winery, to enjoy with lunch. After lunch, guests are taken on an adventurous, scenic journey across the valley to a final tasting at the award-winning Soda Rock Winery.

MATRIx WINERY 3291 Westside Road, Healdsburg CA 95448 (707) 433-1911 | 1-888-884-1288
Founded in 2007 by Diane and Ken Wilson of the Wilson wine dynasty, Matrix is a small winery located on Westside Road in the Russian River Valley. Their tasting menu features multiple Pinot Noirs as you might expect, but they also produce several Bordeaux varietals and blends. Planting new Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes not only adds to the growth of the various Wilson vineyards, but it also makes Matrix shine as a Russian River Pinot House. In 2009, just two years after opening, the Sonoma Harvest Fair awarded Matrix Best of Class for its 2004 Matrix, a Bordeaux blend. This wine is exactly what distinguishes our Matrix wines, says Ken Wilson. It carries a signature robust energy, tempered by elegance. Winemakers Diane Wilson and Antoine Favero have combined their talents, giving Matrix wines a little something special in their small-lot productions, anywhere from 99 cases up to 250 cases. Many of their award-winning 2010 vintages including a Pinot Noir, Reserve Pinot Noir, two Zinfandels, a Petite Sirah and a Chardonnay, received gold medals from various wine competitions throughout the country. Silver Oak Frick J Rickards The tasting room and adjoining patio are the perfect 128 Winery 128 Palmeri Route Pedroncelli Meeker Local David destination not only for wine tasting, but to enjoy live GEYSER Terroirs Caffaro PEAK 128 music and other events.

Garr Wines A Glass from the Past to Toast the Future
SUBMITTED BY GINA MOLINAROCARDERA
Historians can trace the viticulture activity in the Livermore Valley back to 1832. We can trace our family winemaking back to the early 19th century as well to a small village outside of Genoa, Italy. A family photo hangs in our Tasting Room of Nonna Rosa Garr with a glass of wine in her hand and her son-in-law, Gino Molinaro, holding the jug of family wine. The picture was taken in Glen Ellen at our familys summer cabin in the early 1930s. My dad, (Bob Molinaro, Garr Winery owner) tells the story of
his dad and uncles getting together every year to make their wine for the family. The truck would bring red grapes from Napa to San Francisco, where the families lived. The grapes would be crushed and fermented and the wine would be made. My uncles learned from their uncles who brought their knowledge and experience from the Old Country to the New World. Our heritage and family traditions are the backbone of Garr, welcoming everyone who visits as family to enjoy the experience of Old Italy. Stop by for a visit, youll be glad you did. Share in our toast of a glass from the past, a toast to the future.
