Wine Pairings
“...Any kind of shellfish is a great pairing with Albarino. If you can get mussels...serve
them out of the shell with pimento oil or simply steamed...”
Ron Miller, Maitre d’hotel, Solara (NYC)
“...If you take [Chardonnay] and pair it with grilled swordfish with a mango salsa, the dish
knocks the sweetness out of the Chardonnay-it becomes a dry white wine, and other
flavors of the wine emerge.”
David Rosengarten, editor in chief, www.davidrosengarten.com
“I love goat’s milk cheeses with Pinot Noir. They are great companions. The young, fresh
goat milk cheese is great for younger, tangier wines while the aged goat milk cheese
goes with richer, layered wine. Anything with mushrooms, including mushroom pizza,
works with Pinot Noir.”
Brian Duncan, wine director, Bin 36 (Chicago)
September 3 or 10: Annual Wine Club Yacht Cruise
First two Saturdays in September from 1- 4 pm. Cruise the Morro Bay Harbor aboard the

2014 Tangent Sauvignon Blanc – Paragon Vineyard, Edna Valley
Classic and yet distinctive in aromatics, this bottling from the Niven family’s cool-climate
vineyard shows cut grass, wet cement and a touch of struck match on the narrowly
focused nose. The palate intrigues, with fresh-cut thyme and oregano lifted by a white
pepper element.

2014 True Myth Chardonnay – Paragon Vineyard, Edna Valley
True Myth is the newest addition to the Niven Family portfolio, which includes Baileyana,
Cadre, Tangent, Trenza, and Zocker, all of which are thriving under the deft stewardship
of Christian Rougenant. The True Myth line is beautifully labeled and bargain priced, and
-- BONUS -- the wine inside is great. This Chardonnay is a real value, with lemon, quince,
apple and soft oak spice aromas and flavors delivered in a viscous yet bright palate that
shows full integration and a long rich finish. It’s a perfect gift bottle for Chardonnay lovers
of all walks. One of my favorite winemakers strikes again! A Platinum Award winner at the
2016 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition.
94 Points, Rich Cook - Jan. 19, 2016
2013 True Myth Cabernet Sauvignon – Paso Robles
The 2013 Cabernet from True Myth is textbook Paso Robles Cabernet, exhibiting ripe,
fleshy fruit on the palate and a floral, spicy nose. Aromas of blueberry and blackberry
dominate. On the palate the wine has excellent weight and length, with a persistent finish.
This wine was a Platinum award-winner at the 2016 Winemaker Challenge International
Wine Competition.

2014 tangent Albariño - New Vintage!
Made in the traditional style of Rías Baixas Albariño, this wine is pure
and vibrant, with a slight salty characteristic. Mandarin orange and
tangerine peel begin in the aromatics and run clear through to the
finish. The round mouthfeel is beautifully balanced by a somewhat
crisp acid structure. The refreshing quality of this wine makes it an
excellent aperitif, and it pairs well with most seafoods.
