Quality Wines All Under $25 at Wine Garage, Calistoga

by Jeffry Ross
The Skinny
The Wine Garage is all about the juice. It’s also about having fun –
like a kid in a candy store. The Wine Garage is, literally, a former gas
station. Todd, the wine buyer, travels far and wide to find top-shelf,
affordably priced wines. Inside, you’ll find more than 200 different
labels neatly arranged in cases on the floor and an engaging staff who
are friendly, attentive and most importantly, they know their wines.
Buzz
Despite its funky space, the Wine Garage is a wine lover’s best
friend. Reminiscent of visiting your favorite record store (yes, kids,
once upon a time, that’s where you had to buy your music), the fun is
going through all the cases and finding something you’ve never heard
of. All the wines have been test driven by the staff, so, whatever you
select, you won’t be disappointed.

WINE COUNTRY NEWS | WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK
River Road Wine Trail Welcomes Spring!

Spring is undoubtedly the most breathtakingly, beautiful time of
the year to drive through the Salinas Valley and visit the wineries that
make up the River Road Wine Trail. The Wine Trail begins at Highway
68 and runs along the Santa Lucia Highlands into the Arroyo Seco
valley, ending south of Greenfield at Hobson Avenue. This 45-mile
long corridor is home to more than just vineyards. Row crop and cattle
grazing land enhance the beauty of this time of the year.
The 2011 vintage officially began bud break in March with shoots
starting to grow in lime-green splendor. The tasting rooms are located
within the vineyards and casual attire is recommended. You won’t see
any stuffy dress by the winemakers and hosts along the River Road
Wine Trail.
Thirteen Tasting Rooms comprise the River Road Wine Trail Asso-
ciation, which include Boekenoogen, Scheid, Hahn, Pessagno, Wrath,
Sycamore Cellars, Ventana, Manzoni, Marilyn Remark, Reggie
Hammond Wines, Ray Franscioni Wines, Paraiso and McIntyre. Each
member specializes in different varietals and stylistic approaches to
winegrowing. For instance, Marilyn Remark focuses on Rhône vari-
eties, while Pessagno and Manzoni focus on cool-climate Chardonnay
and Pinot Noirs.
The River Road Wine Trail vintners invite you to taste their recent
releases and join them for one of their special events. The Wine Trail
hosts various themed events throughout the year. Details are posted
on our website riverroadwinetrail.com.
We all look forward to seeing you soon on the River Road Wine

Prager Winery & Port Works

Three things you need to know about Prager Winery & Port Works
just south of St. Helena. To start with, it is utterly, unashamedly
charming, housed in a carriage house dating back to 1865. The second
is that it’s a family owned and operated winery with pretty much two
(or is it three now?) generations involved. And third, they make Ports
that are unique, almost addictive, and exceptionally well crafted,
something that has been true since that first harvest in 1979.
Prager patriarch Jim and his wife Imogene took a route not many
people with aspirations in making fine Napa Valley wines followed:
they decided to specialize in making Port. At the time this was hardly
a common practice, and though more wineries attempt it these days,
Prager stands alone.
They’ve been specializing in the production of various styles of
Premium California Ports. They currently offer Vintage, Tawny and the
famous Aria White Port and also a Petite Sirah Port, plus a nicely aged
Petite Sirah wine that could be aged for ten
years if you are patient (hint: buy at least two
and drink one with friends and age the rest), as
well as a Late Harvest Riesling dessert wine
called Sweet Claire that has a clean, crisp finish,
something not often found in dessert wines.
The winery also carries a very

popular Chocolate Port Drizzle, Port
filled boxed chocolates, caramelized walnuts and three distinct vine-
gars for the discerning gourmet. Needless to say, the chocolates and
walnuts pair perfectly with Port.
Of course, you can try these offerings in their rustic tasting room
which manages to balance fun, memorable tastes and a seriousness for
what they make and what they pour in equal measure, never letting
one dominate. It is a well-rounded and unique time, as the faces on
your fellow visitors will quickly attest.
While Jim and Imogene may not be at the winery quite as often as
they once were, they still remain involved and, it would seem, as

of wine, and the Napa Valley are all the better for it.
The Prager tasting room, where you will taste five premium Ports

Sausal Winery Celebrates

Cellar Cat Sophie
Gypsie and Sophie are the Sausal Winery Cellar Cats. Years ago
Gypsie wandered into the winery but then quickly disappeared. Not
long after, she was found again with a litter of kittens in the cellar.
Sophie is one of those kittens, and this April Sausal Winery is cele-
brating Sophie’s ninth birthday. Stop by any day of the week to meet
the cats and taste the wines that honor them.
When they are not posing for pictures, Gypsie and Sophie can be
found lounging around the office, tasting room or porch. Occasionally
you might see Sophie chasing a bunny through the vineyard or Gypsie
stalking a bird on the lawn. But, if you bring a lunch to the picnic
tables, Sophie will surely turn up.
Sausal Winery specializes in old vine Zinfandel from their estate
vineyards, but also makes two cellar cat tribute wines. Cellar Cats Red,
a non-vintage Estate Zinfandel, is light and fruity; an easy sipper on a
warm night. The Purrfect Petite is the newest tribute to the winery
cats, and Petite Sirah was chosen as their varietal compliment because
they are both inky black, big and bold.
Sausal Winery is located in Alexander Valley, just a few miles east of
the charming town of Healdsburg. For more information, call 1-800-
500-2285 or visit them online at www.sausalwinery.com.

And they’re off…To buy Seabiscuit Ranch Wines at

Sonoma Enoteca to celebrate the Kentucky Derby
The story of Seabiscuit lives on in the heart of America. And
everyone who saw the incredible movie was touched by the tale of the
knobby-kneed racehorse who triumphed over adversity to become
one of the greatest champions of the 20th century.
The legendary champion racehorse, Seabiscuit, captured the
emotional spirit of America with his tenacity, endurance, winning
spirit and passion. Those same qualities apply to our Seabiscuit Ranch

very special Seabiscuit wines as you watch the Run For The Roses.
Stop in to Sonoma Enoteca on the historic Sonoma Plaza and choose
your favorites.
The 2008 Seabiscuit Ranch Chardonnay is a beautiful balance of
fruit and oak. Lovely aromas of ripe pear and apple perfectly balanced

in 1940, the spectacular racing career of this legendary Thorough- Seabiscuit Ranch vineyards are located on a southern portion of the
original Ridgewood Ranch. Located just 20 miles from the Mendocino
coastline, these small, award-winning vineyards are perched at an alti-
tude of 1,000 feet on steep slopes of the Pacific Coastal Mountain
range. Vines are nurtured and harvested entirely by hand according to
sustainable growing practices.
Grapes from Mendocino County’s Redwood Valley appellation are
uniquely flavorful, complex and well-balanced. Warm days contrast
with cool nighttime temperatures. These dramatic daily temperature
swings offer the qualitative edge to fruit harvested from one of Cali-
fornia’s northernmost viticultural districts.
So from Seabiscuit Ranch and from all of us at Sonoma Enoteca, we
hope you pick a winner! Sonoma Enoteca is located at 35 East Napa
Street, Sonoma. Visit Sonoma-enoteca.com or call (707) 935-1200.
Sonoma Enoteca offers hand-crafted wines from ten boutique
wineries, wine accessories, books, olive oils and home furnishings.

About Audubon Canyon Ranch
The mission of Audubon Canyon Ranch (ACR) is to protect the
natural resources of its sanctuaries while fostering an understanding
and appreciation of these environments. ACR educates children and
adults, promotes ecological literacy that is grounded in direct experi-
ence, and conducts research and restoration that advances conserva-
tion science.
ACR properties include the Cypress Grove Research Center on
Tomales Bay, the Bouverie Preserve in Glen Ellen, and the 1,000-acre
Martin Griffin Preserve in Stinson Beach, which is an important San
Francisco Bay Area Great Egret and Great Blue Heron nesting colony.
In 2009 ACR announced an agreement with Jim and Shirley Modini

camas Mountains in Sonoma County.
ACR is an independent non-profit organization with 501(c)3
