Perfect Pairs
Who doesnt love picnics? Whether its a trip to the beach, an evening at the Farmers Market or just a lazy afternoon on your own patio, wine always plays an essential part. With these long summer evenings, Im always looking for something a little different to bring out and the 2009 HKG Estate Pinot Ros is perfect. Ros wine is light, fun and exciting to drink, and I love opening the bottle with that distinct soft red hue that has everyone wondering what you are drinking. This recipe is from Khambay Khamsyvoravong, HKG Estate Tasting Room Chef de Cuisine who knows how to perfectly pair foods with the HKG Estate varietals. HKG Estate wines are the ultra-premium wines
BY ALEXANDRA CHARSLEY
Seared Ahi Tuna with Calabrian Chili Aioli Paired with HKG Estate 2009 Pinot Ros
produced by Hop Kiln Winery from all estate grown grapes in the Russian River Valley. The 2009 HKG Estate Pinot Ros is a perfect match for the seared tuna as this dry style Ros highlights the Calabrian chili spice while the fattiness of the dish keeps the wines tannins in check. Slightly sweet with a hint of strawberry and tropical guava characters, the Ros pairs well with the flavors of ripe summer squash. This seared tuna recipe is quick, easy and so tasty. The squash brought nice vibrant colors to the plate but also made the dish feel light so it is ideal for summer dining while the wine retains its bright acidity and finishes crisp, dry and refreshing. The HKG Estate Tasting Room in Glen Ellen offers a selection of current wines produced by Hop Kilns talented young winemaker, Chuck Mansfield. If you would like to enjoy this pairing, the tasting room is open Thursday through Sunday from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. Reservations are recommended and can be made by calling (707) 938-7622. They also have a new summer menu featuring both savory and sweet pairings showcasing the seasonal produce from Sonoma. As if all this wasnt enough, there is a wonderful display case containing their decadent desserts and pies that can be enjoyed with a glass of wine or taken away. With all of these delicious treats, you will not want to miss out on such an enjoyable experience.
In a blender, add egg yolk, egg, lemon juice and Calabrian chili (these little peppers pack a lot of heat, so add as much as you can stand). Blend until fairly smooth. While the blender is on, drizzle in canola oil and add salt to taste. Seared Ahi Tuna with Summer Squash 1 zucchini 1 pound ahi tuna 1 yellow summer squash Pepper, to taste 1 tablespoon butter Salt, to taste Thinly slice summer squash. Heat a saut pan until it is hot. Add butter and summer squash, season with salt and pepper. Quickly saut squash for about 30 seconds and transfer to plate as the base for the tuna. With the same saut pan, heat until it is hot. Season tuna with salt & pepper to taste. Sear tuna until you get a nice browning on each side (about 15 seconds on each side). Transfer to a cutting board and slice into thick slices. Place on top of sauted summer squash and serve with Calabrian chili aioli.

Benefits of Joining the Vezer Family Vineyard Wine Club
As Frank Vezer says with great pride, The 2006 and 2007 vintages of Vezer Cabs and Zins rock the house. In the last 18 months, both in the major national and international competitions, Vezer has won gold, double gold and tied for Best in Class for North Central Coast Appellation. Only some of the finest restaurants and wine shops in the country carry Vezer, and only by special arrangement. The wines range from $50 to $100 retail, but wine club members get a great discount and a guaranteed of allocations. If you try to get this wine anywhere else if you can even find it you can expect to pay close, to or more than, $200 per bottle. The winery has discovered that when people join they do not let their membership go. In fact, Vezer has one of the highest club retentions of all time. There are many reasons to join other than the award-winning wine shipments and the benefits that give you VIP status and recognition. Theres ambiance that you simply cannot get anywhere else, free tastings for up to four to six people, a private tasting room and club room onsite, ATV tours, free wine club pick-up parties with live music, exceptional food and wine served right from the barrels. Winter pick-up parties are usually barrel burning events, roasting linguica, Hungarian Paprika Bacon and sausages from all over the world, accompanied by hearty Zins, some seductive Cabernets, Petite Sirah and Barrel Room Select Blends. And try roasting smores over the open fire while tasting some of the finest white and ruby Ports. At the spring and summer pick-up parties there are outdoor movies, barbecues and live music in the gardens, either at the Private Ranch or the small Western Village of Mankas Corner. (The Vezers bought Mankas Corner, in its entirety, several years back and renovated into a European-style oasis. Here you feel like you were on the set with Russell Crowe in the movie A Good Year.) Throughout the year there are special concerts and formal dinners at the winery and at the private ranch. Just imagine one of Americas greatest tenors starting with the ballet Besame Mucho as the light slowly turns its focus on the star standing in the middle of the vineyard, secluded in a private mile-long valley owned by the Vezers, then all the sudden this beautiful blond in a cobalt blue gown starts on the hillside nearby with an instrumental solo with her electric violin that simply resonates throughout the valley. Just as the sommelier pours you a wine right from a magnum of one of Vezers private reserves, all while enjoying wild boar, Moroccan chicken or filet mignon. As owner Frank Vezer says, It is truly the opportunity of a lifetime, and it is here for you to enjoy! The wine club, due to the limited production and quaint private settings is anticipated to be capped at 1,000 members. The Club consists of 250 spots for Chieftains VIP Chairmens, and 750 Elite members and these two quotas are quickly filling up. Stop by and visit the Vezers and join either club at the tasting room or you can even join online at www.vezerfamilyvineyard.com.

ZD Wines
Fine Wines & Giving Back to the Teens in Napa Valley
By Abigail Zimmerman
In 1969, Sonoma County issued a winery permit to two enthusiastic entrepreneurs in pursuit of Pinot and Chardonnay. It was the first time in almost 20 years that Sonoma issued a winery permit. Sonoma County picked wisely. Norman deLeuze and partner Gino Zepponi the ZD in ZD Wines were two aerospace engineers with a penchant for making Burgundian varietals of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. This new winery permit would alter the lives of both men and their families forever. Pooling resources, Norman, Gino and Rosa Lee (Normans wife) rented a small farm building in the Carneros region. They purchased wine grapes, some 50-gallon oak barrels and a redwood vat. Three hundred cases of Pinot Noir and a small batch of White Riesling represented ZDs first commercial vintage in 1969. The rest, they say, is history. ZD Wines is still a family run operation; Julie, Brett and Robert deLeuze have taken the torch from their parents and have further grown this premiere Napa Valley winery. At ZD Wines, a commitment to family is equal to their commitment to sustainably grown and produced wines. Before there was green or eco or organic, there were Norman and Gino out in their vineyards in what is now known as Carneros. This was 1969 and they were still hobbyists. But these visionaries shared a passion for the earth and healthy farming. Today, some 40 years later, ZD estate vines are still farmed 100% organically. Their winery is 100% solar run and they recycle all of their wastewater with an aerobic digester and a reclamation system. (Pause for applause.) Family and responsible winemaking are vital to the ZD Wines family as is giving back to the Napa Valley community that has nurtured and sustained their dream for so many years. Which is why this month on Saturday, August 20th from noon to 4 p.m., ZD Wines will be hosting the ZD Summer Wine Celebration specifically benefiting the Napa Boys & Girls Club Teen Center. ZD family and staff will be pairing current and new releases with
Reopening of the Napa Valley Boys & Girls Club Teen Center
ZD Wines Family
foods cooked personally by the deLeuze family. Founder and matriarch Rosa Lee, uncles and aunts, children as well as grandchildren are already paired off and wickedly competitive about which foods will be the most popular. You be the judge! Already on the lineup will be the fresh Ceviche with the Rosa Lee Pinot Grigio, Mushroom Crostini with Pinot Noir, and Dry Rubbed Grilled Baby Back Ribs paired with the Barbera And thats just the start of it. Live music will be provided by Marketing Director Scott Ferguson and his band, The Staves. They will be performing groovy rock and roll, says Scott with a grin. Entirely 100% of all ticket sales and silent auction proceeds will go to the Napa Boys & Girls Club Teen Center. The Center has been a dear cause for the ZD Wines family. Granddaughter and ZD California Sales representative, Jill deLeuze was their Program Director in 2008 (before joining the family business) and felt first hand the heartache of program planning for at-risk youth with little or no funds. So in 2010, the family contributed $100,000 to overhaul the basement Teen Center on Pueblo Avenue. The funds purchased everything from new floors and walls to furniture, computers, electronics and even healthy snacks delivered fresh every Monday by a ZD family member. This years event will allow ZD Wines to continue their support and funding of the Teen Center. Tickets are $25 in advance and $30 at the door. In terms of vino, do not miss two wines at this Celebration! First is the 2010 Rosa Lee Pinot Grigio ($22). Produced from the lusciously grayish-pink clusters grown here in Carneros, this Pinot Grigio is mouth-watering with ripe peach, apricot, honeysuckle and pineapple. Perfect for summer. Second is the 2009 Rosa Lee Barbera ($25). Harvested from the Twin Creeks Vineyard in Wooden Valley, this Napa Valley Barbera expresses supple tannins and bright acidity. Bold flavors of red tree fruit and hints of cedar, spice and vanilla will pair well with any pizza or tomato sauce dish. Both wines do not see any distribution. The ZD Pinot Grigio and Barbera are available only at the winery itself or from the website Two gems waiting to be discovered!

V Marketplace Where Shopping Meets Lifestyle
by Alexandra Charsley
Ooh, Yountville. As my dear friend says, We should spend an entire weekend just eating and discovering all the great spots in Yountville, and I couldnt agree more! V Marketplace is located on Washington Street which is also home to many Michelin star and Bib Gourmand rated restaurants. It is neatly tucked away with beautifully manicured gardens including a fountain. The grounds are lush and perfect for relaxing or picnicking. Formerly the Groezinger Winery, and once known as Vintage 1870, the V Marketplace complex was originally built in the year 1870 by German-born vintner Gottlieb Groezinger. Since opening in 1968, V Marketplace has distinguished itself as Napa Valleys landmark icon of shopping, entertainment and special events. With award-winning restaurants, wine tasting bars, fine art galleries and plenty of shopping, be sure to allow yourself enough time to visit the V Marketplace.

redwood picnic tables outside, surrounded by lavender and native plantings. These are also popular places to stake out and enjoy the winerys monthly Second Sundays events, where there is often music and such culinary pairings as Pinot & Paella or Pizza & Pinot. The wines youll taste include two favorites, the Fogdog Chardonnay, with its fruit and almond nose, and the Fogdog Pinot, a rich, earthy, full-bodied wine. If you want to appear shipworthy and knowledgeable, fogdog is a nautical term that describes the sun shining through fog. You will also taste Freestones flagship Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines, including the new 2009 Freestone Chardonnay. If that were not enough, the tasting room folks are among the friendliest you will find anywhere. Need help choosing a wine, directions, recommendations for the artisan breads at the bakery, local anecdotes? They are quick to respond, and with a wonderful, self-deprecating sense of humor. Even when they refer to Freestone as a black hole when it comes to mobile phone service. All in all, a visit to Freestone is a pure, unadulterated delight. True, it is a bit out of the way, but as the famous Michelin Guide symbol says, [It is] worth the trip. In summer Freestones Guest Center is open daily from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. no appointment necessary, though for groups of six or more you might call ahead. They are located at 12747 El Camino Bodega in Freestone. Their phone is (707) 874-1010; their website, which has directions, is www.freestonevineyards.com. They are also dog friendly.

Loxton Cellars
by Brendan Conroy
Genius physicist-turned-winemaker, Chris Loxton, nurtured his passion for wine and turned it into a local sensation. As a fourthgeneration grape grower originally from Australia, Loxton prides himself on making entirely handcrafted, quality wines without compromise. The tasting room always has a white wine, a Syrah and a Zinfandel opened for the public to enjoy as well as a few special bottles off of the menu which rotate on a weekly basis. This, in turn, creates an entirely new tasting room experience every time one attends. While at the winery, feel free to join the Boomerang Club; a wine club for those who always come back. After experiencing all that Loxton has to offer, one is sure to return. The most notable and unprecedented aspect of Loxton winery is the fact that it is one of the few wineries in Sonoma Valley that does not charge for its wine tasting flights. Loxton transports patrons back to much simpler times when wineries welcomed customers as if they were members of their own family and shared premier wines completely free of charge. Producing only 3000 cases annually, Loxton encompasses this mentality to its fullest extent. The small production assures patrons that every wine comes from only the most highly qualified grapes
Chris Loxton
which have been given precise consideration from harvest to bottle. The 2008 Barrel Select Shiraz is a delight. In homage to his Australian roots, Loxton creates his Shiraz with a light tannin structure, but bold fruit on the front palate. The bountiful mouth- feel is complimented by the fact that the wine does not have a tannic bite on the finish. Therefore, it can be savored without the threat of a harsh end. While being plush and well balanced, the Shiraz has ample spice, black pepper and cigar box that round out the middle palate. An ideal food pairing for this style of Shiraz is roast duck drizzled by a rich plum sauce. Decadence at its peak. The 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon from McGraw Vineyard is very hearty. It starts with notes of cedar on the front palate cascaded by bold tannin and rich blackberry. A hint of allspice dances across the palate almost as an afterthought. The long, seemingly endless finish creates a unique tableau of both nuance and flavor. All of Loxtons wines are made to be food friendly and these two examples are excellent representations. For a truly euphoric experience, pair this wine with Beef Bourguignon. The chewiness of the meat melts in your mouth as the rich tannin structure of the wine brings out a multitude of diverse flavors. Loxton Cellars is located at 11466 Dunbar Road in Glen Ellen, open daily from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information, call (707) 935-7221 or go to the website at www.loxtonwines.com. For more information about Loxton winery, visit www.loxtonwines.com for special discounts and events or become a fan on Facebook of Loxton Cellars.

St. Francis Winerys 2nd Annual Stars Under the Stars Film Festival Pairs Silver Screen Icons with Stellar Wines al Fresco
Sonoma County pioneer, St. Francis Winery & Vineyards, expands its 2nd annual Stars Under the Stars outdoor film festival this year to six weeks and six classic films. Curated by celebrity sommelier and film aficionado Christopher Sawyer, the festival takes place every Thursday at the winery until August 18. Christopher Sawyer and St. Francis Winery CEO and President Christopher Silva will host a short discussion of the evenings film and suggested wine pairing before each screening. Great movies and elegant wines, asserts Silva, transport us to another place and time all the more so under the sky and the stars on a summer night. Nominated for three Academy Awards, the 1989 baseball fantasy film Field of Dreams, starring Kevin Costner, Ray Liotta and Burt Lancaster, screens on Thursday, August 11. The festival closes on Thursday, August 18, with Sideways, arguably the most influential wine movie of all time. That evening St. Francis will pay tribute to Merlot, the much maligned varietal in this Academy Award winning film. Seating begins at 7:30 p.m., followed by the screening at 8 p.m. There is no charge for attending. Wine by the glass, charcuterie, popcorn, brownies and cookies will be available for purchase. For over 35 years, St. Francis Winery in Sonoma has hand-crafted

fruit forward, luscious and full-bodied wines from superior mountain and valley vineyards in Sonoma Countys best appellations. St. Francis Sonoma County wines are bursting with flavor and are recognized globally for outstanding quality and great value. Christopher Sawyer travels the world following trends in wine and participating as a judge in international wine competitions. Sawyer earned the 2009 Best Sommelier in Sonoma County by The Wine Tasting Panel Magazine and is the recipient of many prestigious awards and industry honors. As the worlds first and only Film Festival Sommelier, Sawyer conceived and curated the wine experience throughout the Sonoma Valley Film Festival, including creatively pairing wine and food with films throughout the festival and at celebrity tributes. Christopher is currently sommelier-in-residence at the Carneros Bistro & Wine Bar at The Lodge at Sonoma Renaissance Resort and Spa, where his wine list has received numerous awards.
