Wineology
INTELLIGENCE FOR THE WINE CONSUMER
by Len Napolitano
Why do wines made from the same varietal
taste different among various producers?
The reasons are many – from differences in the climates of
the various grape-growing regions, to the type of soil under the
vines to the choices made in the method of production.
Starting with climatic differences, grapes grown in cooler
climates retain a higher level of acidity than the same grape
grown in a warm climate. Higher acidity will produce a crisper,
more refreshing texture in the wine. On the other hand, grapes
grown in warmer climate will have less acidity, greater ripeness,
and thus a higher alcohol content when fermented, and
produce a wine with a fuller, rounder body.
Chardonnay grown in each of these two disparate environments produces two very different wine styles. This difference
in crispness verses fullness is sometimes referred to as a difference in “mouthfeel”. The addition of oak in the fermentation or
aging process also contributes to mouthfeel in the wine
compared to one that gets little or no contact with oak
Soils vary greatly around the world and even throughout
California’s many wine regions. Soils might be composed of
chalk, limestone, clay, sand, gravel, loam or other components
that may impart a unique flavor to the wine. For example,
some people claim that grapes grown in the Rutherford area of
Napa produce wines with an identifiable “Rutherford dust”
character, described usually as a herbaceous spiciness.
In addition to the above reasons, other factors, such as
whether a wine is filtered or blended with another grape, will
create a producer’s overall style and character and thus differentiate it from other producers’ wines made from the same
grape.
Finally, some wine regions command higher prices for their
grapes than others. It’s simply a matter of supply and demand.
Winemakers who buy grapes will pay a pretty penny for
Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley, for example, where
world class wines have made Napa’s reputation as a source of
outstanding grapes.
Len Napolitano lives in San Luis Obispo County and is certified in wine by the Society of Wine Educators,
Wine & Spirits Education Trust and Chicago Wine School and continually gains knowledge from his frequent
contact with California winemakers. More information is on his website, www.wineology.com.

WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK | WINE COUNTRY NEWS
More Than 250 Quality Wines
Under $25 at Wine Garage
Hidden next to a dilapidated ’40s-era former filling station on Highway 29
in Calistoga lies the Wine Garage. A unique wine shop in Napa Valley that retails
all wine in the store under $25. Sound crazy? Its true. And the proprietors Todd
and Joy Miller, have hit on a niche in the Valley that had been very missed by the
locals there.
“There are a lot of winemakers here that can’t afford to drink the wine they
make” says Miller. “That’s crazy, yes, but who can afford to drink a $65 bottle with
dinner every night?”
Many people miss The Wine Garage on the first try upvalley, but the search
is well worth it. Miller stocks wine from all of California’s wine growing regions
including fifty Napa selections and 40 from Sonoma County. When he first sought
out buying the initial inventory, “I enlisted a local farmer buddy and his 15-foot
box van and off we went all over California hunting down the deals. I tried to seek
out the small producers who didn’t have distributors so I could pass the savings
on to my customers.” And Miller did just that. His store is stocked with highquality juice all under $25 and all are unique. Most labels in the shop are unrecognizable – but all pass the same test; everything passes over Miller’s lips before
he makes a buy. “If I don’t love it, I don’t buy it, period. Sometimes I will taste
over a hundred wines in one day, load up the truck and haul it up to Calistoga,
unload at the store, and maybe I will crawl in bed by 3 a.m. Needless to say my
buddy bowed out of the deal after their second trip. I initially recruited him on a
‘hey lets go wine tasting in Santa Barbara’ until he realized how much work it
entailed. Poor guy, he had to be at the farm at 5 in the morning.”
It is all worth it. Millers’ customers love him. He has a unique ability to hear a
verbal description of a customer’s favorite wine and translate that into a recommendation for sometimes a third of the cost. “I have people all over the country
that use me as their local wine shop. I ship right to their door – and the cost of the
shipping is a drop in the bucket compared to what they save on the cost of the
wine.
Miller gets deals on Napa wine too. “I have winemakers from small wineries
stop in every week saying ‘I have something that will fit into the store,’ if they only
have 15 or 25 cases of an end-of-vintage wine – I am the perfect outlet for them.”
So head up to the Wine Garage and check out the best deals in the Valley at
1020 Foothill Blvd (Hwy 29), Calistoga, CA 94515. For more information, call
(707) 942-5332. You can also check out the website at winegarage.net.

ZD WINES CYCLE FOR WINE CELEBRATION
Benefiting the Boys & Girls Club of Napa Teen Center
By Charles Neave
This May, you are invited to join ZD Wines
on the Silverado Trail in the Napa Valley for
the “Cycle for Wine Celebration” that they are
going to hold in conjunction with the Amgen
Tour of California. On Saturday, May 15th
from noon until 3 p.m. you can attend the ZD
Wines’ Pre-Race Kick-Off Open House and
be a part of the energy and excitement of this
international cycling event.
There will be live music, delicious wine,
plenty of healthy wraps and snacks from Phat
Wraps, and cycling information and bike
demonstrations courtesy of Napa River Velo.
A silent auction will give bidders the chance
to win wine (of course!), racing jerseys, a
bicycle and more. Wander about this widely
acclaimed family winery that is surrounded
on three sides by vineyards. Sample their
wine and get in the spirit of the Tour of California. And all of the proceeds from the Open
House Silent Auction and ticket sales will
benefit the Boys & Girls Club Napa Teen
Center.
The 2010 Amgen Tour of California is a
Tour de France-style cycling road race and is
the largest cycling event held in this country.
It challenges the world’s top professional

cycling teams to compete along a demanding
course from May 16th to the 23rd. Founded
in 2005, Breakaway from Cancer continues to
raise awareness and funds to support valuable
services and programs, provided free of
charge, that help people living with cancer.
This initiative was created by Amgen as a
complementary component to the company’s
sponsorship of the Amgen Tour of California.
This year, the initiative continues to support
the important programs and tools offered by
the National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship and The Wellness Community.
On Monday, May 17th you are invited to
join the deLeuze family for an exclusive lunch
on the wrap-around deck overlooking the
Silverado Trail. The race will pass directly in
front of the winery, so from their deck you
can enjoy the view, drink award-winning
wines and sample some delicious barbecue in
a casual setting. However, you need to know
that seating is limited and tickets are available
on a first come, first served basis.
This connection with charity and a healthy
lifestyle is hardly surprising, since the winery
has been at forefront of the sustainable wine
movement. In fact, ZD’s Estate Vineyard and
the deLeuze Family Vineyard have been 100
percent Certified Organic for a decade, and
their organic farming practices date back to
the early 1980s.
The other key words they regularly use are
“Quality, consistency and style.” Those are the
words they live by. You could also accurately
add the word “family” to that list and you
would be even more accurate. It has been that
way since the 1960s, when two aerospace
engineers, Norm deLeuze and Gino Zepponi,
WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK |
founded ZD Wines. It has always
been a family affair, as it
continues to be to this day.
In the years since then they
have also gotten a well-deserved
reputation for producing some of
the finest Pinot Noir and
Chardonnay in the country,
earning walls of awards and
medals and sincere testimonials
from consumers and the wine
press. Their handsome tasting
room always wins high praise as
well, for its design, but most of all
for the wines poured there and
for the constant friendliness of
the staff.
Today, the wines of ZD also
include Cabernet Sauvignon, and
on a very limited basis, a wine for
passionate wine lovers: Abacus.
This is a “solera style” multiplevintage blend of every ZD
Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon ever
produced; wine which has been
held in the barrel until bottling. It
is an extraordinary example of
the winemaker’s craft and of the
continuing evolution and excellence of the winery.
Also on their short list of offerings and under the Rosa Lee label
(available only at the winery and
to wine club members) is a
refreshing Muscat Canelli and a
Mourvedre that is wonderful for
pairing with a variety of foods or
simply by itself. As with each and
every wine they put their name
on, they are worthy additions to
any cellar and a delight to
sample, to enjoy with food, and
to share with friends and family,
just as they do on a daily basis at
this Silverado Trail winery,
cycling race or not.
The tasting room at ZD Wines
is open daily from 10 a.m. to
4:30 p.m. They are located at
8383 Silverado Trail, Napa. For
more information, give them a
call at 1-800-487-7757 or look

Perfect Pairs
Judd’s Hill Milliken Creek Estate
Pinot Noir Perfectly Paired
with Asian BBQ Salmon
ASIAN BBQ SALMON
As spring takes hold and the weather warms, the Finkelstein
family of Judd's Hill Winey look to the grill for wine and food
pairing inspiration. This year, their winery celebrates its 21st year of
production. And from the start, their vision has been to make
balanced and approachable wines that pair well with a wide range of
flavors.
In addition to being the winery’s founder, chief architect, head
winemaker and father of Judd, Art Finkelstein is the winery’s resident
chef. Art’s recipe for Asian BBQ Salmon blends the three iconic
flavors of Dijon mustard, soy sauce and garlic into a savory and
tangy marinade that is a perfect seasoning for salmon cooked on the
grill. An accompaniment of seasonal grilled veggies, fired alongside
the salmon, complete this easy and delicious meal, perfect for spring.
The fusion of Asian and European flavors is a favorite theme of Chef
Art. Other similarly scrumptious recipes of his can be found in “Art's
Recipe Nook” located on the Judd's Hill website, www.juddshill.com.
The perfect wine to complete this spring feast is the 2008 Judd's
Hill Milliken Creek Estate Pinot Noir ($34). With only 360 cases
produced, this wine is primarily sold directly to Judd’s Hill wine club
members and visitors to their Silverado Trail winery. Three distinct
Dijon clones make up the Pinot Noir fruit and provide complexity
and nuance to the finished wine. The bouquet is rich with aromas of
cherry, violet, baking spices and a touch of forest floor. Light-handed
use of previously filled oak barrels imparts a hint of vanilla. On the
palate, the wine is medium-bodied with a bright acidity balanced by
rich fruit and loamy earth components. This wine is drinking beautifully now and will continue to improve over the next four or five
years. But given the tiny production and vibrant fruit and spice
flavors, it’s expected that most of these corks will have been popped
long before then.
For the marinade:
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 3 tablespoons premium soy sauce
• 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
Tasting Room open by appointment 7 days a week 10am to 4pm
Private Bottle-blending sessions also available by appointment
2332 Silverado Trail, Napa CA 94558
707-255-2332 • www.juddshill.com
22
Ingredients
• 1 side fresh salmon, boned with skin on (about 3
pounds)
Light charcoal briquettes in a grill and brush the grilling
rack with oil to keep the salmon from sticking.
While the grill is heating, lay the salmon skin side down
on a cutting board and cut it crosswise into 4 equal
pieces. Whisk together the mustard, soy sauce, olive oil
and garlic in a small bowl. Drizzle half of the marinade
onto the salmon and allow it to sit for 10 minutes.
Place the salmon skin side down on the hot grill; discard
the marinade the fish was sitting in. Grill for 4 to 5
minutes, depending on
the thickness of the fish.
Turn carefully with a wide
spatula and grill for
another 4 to 5 minutes.
The salmon will be
slightly raw in the center,
but don't worry; it will
keep cooking as it sits.
Transfer the fish to a flat
plate, skin side down, and
spoon the reserved marinade on top. Allow the
fish to rest for 10 minutes.
Remove the skin and
serve warm, at room
temperature or chilled.

Estate Pinot Noir
New Small-Lot Zinfandel from Dutcher Crossing Winery
2008 Zinfandel, Bernier-Sibary Vineyard, Dry Creek Valley
Dutcher Crossing Winery, known for its small-lot
wine program, recently released the 2008 Bernier-Sibary
Vineyard Zinfandel made from a three-acre vineyard
block off Canyon Road in Dry Creek Valley. “The BernierSibary vineyard is a classic Italian field blend of 75
percent Zinfandel, intermixed with 10 percent each of
Petite Sirah and Carignane, and 5 percent Matero
(Mourvedre),” said Debra Mathy, proprietor. The 5-acre
vineyard is owned by Scott Sibary and Jane Kerlinger,
and farmed by grape grower, Paul Bernier. “Our goal is to
capture the sense of place in the bottle by creating a wine that is definably Zinfandel, but with added nuances from the other varieties,” said
Mathy.
Paul Bernier learned how to grow grapes from an old, Italian
colleague, and the Bernier-Sibary vineyard reflects his hands-on
philosophy of using dry farming techniques. Planted in 1999 on a
steep hillside with a convergence of six soil types, the head-trained
vines are closely spaced. “We do not fertilize nor irrigate this vineyard,”
said Bernier. “We use cover crops and grape compost, which I make
with oyster shells for calcium and trace minerals. We start cultivating
the ground in late March or April, and by June, have turned the soil
into a dirt mulch. This holds the moisture in the ground for the vines
to use in the summer.
“The vineyard is in balance, producing around 2-1/2
tons per acre. Because the vineyard is dry farmed, the skins
are heavier and the clusters and berries are smaller. Unlike
most thin-skinned Zinfandel, if it rains, the moisture does
not affect the grapes as quickly.”
In keeping with the Italian field blend model, all the
intermixed grape varieties were harvested together and cofermented with native yeast in open top tanks and
punched down by hand. “Because of the 25 percent nonZinfandel grapes, the wine from this vineyard always
ferments to completeness, which is a winemaker’s blessing,” said
Damskey. The wine was given 18 days of skin contact, and aged for 14
months in French oak barrels (32 percent new barrels). “This wine is
darker than our 2007 premier vintage,” described Damskey. “It is very
dark garnet in color, with scents of blackberry, clove, anise and plum.
Due to the field blend, the wine is a structured and more complex
Zinfandel with great interest and intensity, endowed with a subtle
exotic nature. On the palate, there is an elegant, full, long finish that is
soft and layered.”
The 2008 Bernier-Sibary Vineyard Zinfandel can be purchased for
$39 at the winery, 8533 Dry Creek Road in Geyserville, or online at
www.dutchercrossingwinery.com.

WINE COUNTRY NEWS | WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK
Winemaker Profile: Prager Winery & Port Works
PETER PRAGER
by Abigail P. Zimmerman
“Its a family thing,” says acclaimed Winemaker and Port lover Peter
Prager. “Our whole family just loves Port!”
Indeed they should. Since 1979, Prager Winery & Port Works has
been a family owned and operated, specialty winery and a Napa Valley
favorite for decades. Since 1995, Peter Prager, son of founders, Jim
and Imogene Prager, has been wielding the helm as winemaker and
grand steward of his family’s legacy in Napa Valley.
Moving north from Orange County in 1977, the Prager family
settled in St. Helena, Napa Valley. Peter graduated from St. Helena
High in 1978 and embraced his father’s vision, along with his two
brothers, in helping their father, found the family winery in 1979. The
family still has their one goal in mind: to produce world-class Ports,
and has successfully taken California Port to a new level of excellence.
Peter worked beside his father in the vineyards, in the cellars and
later in sales – learning the business from the ground up. It should be
no surprise that wine is in the Prager family blood. Peter remembers
fondly growing up Southern California – his dad handing his three
sons two shovels, some picks and a couple of wheel barrels and said
“Dig me a wine cellar!” Six weekends later, the boys finished an 8' x
8' x 10' cavern in their backyard that became their family wine cellar!
Married for 17 years to his college love, Karen, Peter has five kids
ranging in age from five to 16 years – and all of them help out in the
winery. While the Pragers do encourage family involvement with a few
extra bucks for their kids’ help, its really the “hamburgers with
grandma afterward that cinch the deal!”
But without a doubt, Peter’s gratitude and faith in his family and
24
especially in his wife, Karen, shine through. They met while Peter was
attending Fresno State studying Enology, at a college barbecue, when
he thought, in his matter-of-fact way, “yep, I want to go talk to her.”
And he did. Seventeen years later, they are still going strong. Of Karen,
Peter says “Yeah, I sure love her... She’s just done wonders for me,
that’s for sure.”
Five years ago, Prager Winery along with other California wineries
started an organization called the Sweet and Fortified Wine Associa-
Continued
tion. As the president of this organization, Peter has been active in
working with other wineries in educating people about the different
styles of Port and sweet wine and how they go with many types of
foods, not just dessert.
Tasting Prager Ports & Wines
Specializing in the production of various premium California Ports,
Prager’s tasting room and online shop currently offers Vintage, Tawny
(aged 10 years!) and White Ports as well as Petite Sirahs and Late
Harvest Riesling still wines.
Prager also boasts an exquisite selection of Chocolate Port Drizzles,
Port-filled boxed chocolates made by hand, carmelized walnuts, three
unique varieties of vinegars as well as the hats and t-shirts with the
Prager logo that you are sure to want once you try one or all of the
above.
Prager has been a “must-see” destination for all Port Lovin’ locals
and visitors to St. Helena. It is quite easy to see why. Three generations
of Pragers work to produce these premium, hand crafted Ports and
delicacies. Rustic and charming, the Prager tasting room is at once intimate and cross-continental. International currency lines the walls
from past guests who have traveled long and far to enjoy these
sensuous Ports from Prager Winery & Port Works.
Each guest is treated to a variety of Ports and a still wine for a $15
tasting fee, which is certainly well worth it, and includes the 19 oz
glass with the Prager logo.
Port Selections
Whether a novice or long-time lover of Ports, Prager Winery & Port
Works offers a unique selection of white, Tawny and red ports as well
as still and dessert wines for their nominal tasting fee. Usually, Prager
makes six different ports and all are available for tasting and purchase
on site or online.
Lucky guests today are in for a treat. TWO NEW RELEASES are
available, first to the Port Club members, and then to the public:
2006 Aria White Port: An extremely versatile Port wine from
Chardonnay and Verdelhoh (a white Portuguese varietal) that is barrel
aged three years. Aromas of caramel and flavors of hazelnuts and
baked apple give way to a lingering finish of caramel corn ($48).
2006 Royal Escort Red Port: An estate grown, Petite Sirah Port
that the Pragers have made since 1981, this flagship Port has been
aged 2 & 1/2 years in oak and then for another year in the bottle before
release. This vintage style Port is ready to enjoy now or will cellar
nicely for 25-30 years with no problems. Tasting like ripe black cherries with hints of cedar and blueberry pie filling, the Royal Escort is a
steal for $72 per bottle.
In addition to these two premier releases, Prager offers three still,
table wines. One Petite Sirah and a Late Harvest Rieslings named
Sweet Claire. Delicious!
Prager Winery and Port Works is located at 1281 Lewelling Lane,
off Highway 29 just south of downtown St. Helena. For more information, call 1-800-969-7678, or visit www.pragerport.com.

RAZI WINERY
by Charles Neave
Like more than a few wineries here in wine
country, Razi Winery began as a hobby. “A very
expensive hobby,” winery owner Fred Razi, an
architect by trade, laughs.
What began in the late eighties with the
production of what is called “non-commercial”
wine – Chardonnay to be exact – has grown to
include a barrel room and a beautiful tasting
room. The enterprise now includes custom crush
capability, where smaller-sized growers can make
their own wines. And, the fact that he replanted
the vineyards when he bought the property has
paid off in the wine he now makes. The location,
climate and the soil – terroir as it is often called –
is critical in making great wine, no matter the varietal.
The winery itself, on the east side of the scenic Silverado Trail, only
a few minutes from the City of Napa, includes not just all of the trappings of a working, boutique winery, but also the Razi home, pool
and pavilion (look for the Buddha oven at one end of the pool).
Vineyards are everywhere, the towering old trees majestic, the
tasting room sleek but welcoming. The new building, which was
finished less than two years ago, includes the new barrel room and a
kitchen and office and is fronted by bamboo.
Since the owner lives on the property there is a good chance that
the person pouring your tastes will be the owner, or perhaps the
winemaker. The wines available are the Razi Chardonnay and the
26
newest of the two wines bearing the Razi Winery
label, a red blend comprised of three components: Cabernet Sauvignon (60 percent), Merlot
(30 percent) and the remaining ten percent is
Syrah, all of it from vineyards in the Napa Valley.
As you would expect, the tasting room is
stunning. With high ceilings, rich cherry-like
stained vertical grain wood, state-of-the-art
lighting, mahogany doors that open to the area
in the front and the vineyard to the rear, it is
somehow both modern but classic, and at all
times, friendly.
There are leather topped stools at the metal
topped tasting bar; the space behind is filled
with wine. Another door opens directly into the
barrel room. You might even get a barrel sample
while you are there. It is always a treat to be able
to sample a wine even before it is bottled. It gives you a reference
point; an idea of what is to come in the year or years ahead.
Because Razi Winery does do custom crush work, they often pour
wines from those smaller winery labels, all of which are limited
production (sometimes very limited production). Think of it as just
one more reason to pull off the Silverado Trail and make some time
to savor not just the wines here, but the whole relaxed and eminently
enjoyable tasting experience.
Razi Winery is located at 3108 Silverado Trail, Napa. For more
information give them a call at (707) 224-4299. They are open by
appointment only from 10 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. every day of the
week.

B Wise Vineyards’ New Malbec to Benefit Shriners Children’s Hospitals
B Wise Vineyards partnered with the Shriners International organization member Paul Shelton to produce a Malbec from their Estate
property in Sonoma, California. The wine is being released today with
all sales proceeds being given to the charity to benefit Shriners
network of Children’s Hospitals. The proceeds will raise thousands of
dollars for the much-needed health care for under-served children.
In the Shriners spirit of fun and brotherly fellowship, the wine,
called WINESTOMP, was made in 2007 via foot-crushing the grapes.
The first bottle was auctioned at the Shriners member fund-raising
event and has already earned over $400 for the Shriners Children’s
Hospitals. “We are excited for the opportunity to help an organization
like the Shriners International Children’s Hospitals,” says B Wise Vineyards proprietor Brion Wise. “We are discussing making a wine each
year that benefits the Shriners hospitals,” adds Colin Heinrich, B Wise
Vineyards Marketing Director. To help support the Shriners Children’s
Hospitals via wine purchases and for more information go to
www.bwisevineyards.com.
Founded in 2002 by Brion Wise, the B Wise Vineyards Estate is a
sustainably farmed vineyard and winery located in the foothills near
Sonoma, California. B Wise Vineyards encompasses 20 acres of vines
adjacent to the famed Monte Rosso vineyard and is surrounded by 80
acres of native woodlands. Specializing in red wines centered on the
Cabernet Sauvignon grape, B Wise Vineyards produces 3000 cases of
wine per year. As a small winery, part of the vision of B Wise Vineyards is to share and foster community through wine, which was the
impetus for partnering with the Shriners to help fund the Children’s
Hospitals. For more information on B Wise Vineyards, visit
www.bwisevineyards.com or call (707) 935-1791.

REYNOLDS FAMILY WINERY
by Charles Neave
It’s set just far enough back from the
southern end of the Napa Valley’s Silverado
Trail, just south of Stags Leap District, so that
it forms its own little enclave removed from
traffic and hurry of any sort. You can also tell,
as soon as you walk toward the Reynolds
Family Winery tasting room, that this will be
a very special experience on any number of
levels.
“We own 14 acres here at the winery, ten of
it planted to Cabernet Sauvignon vines,” said
Steve Reynolds, owner and winemaker, who
lives with his wife Suzie and their three children on the property. “Altogether we work
with 20 different vineyards and growers. In
our own vineyard we are a year or two away
from being certified organic, and we’re also
working on being as green as possible. It’s
something I feel we owe our children.”
To be honest, it’s almost impossible not to
like someone as honestly enthusiastic as
Steve. You can tell that he found his true
calling making wine, running a winery and
generally having a great time doing both.
“My interest in wine started when I was
living in Germany as a teenager,” he explains.
“Wine was always part of our daily life and
my father often took the family on wine
tasting trips through Europe.
“My father and I dreamt of building a
winery together and our vision became reality
in 1994. I’d like to say that we moved in and
started making wine on day one. But the truth
is, the property was a 100-year old chicken
ranch that needed lots of love but was full of
potential. It took us over a year to clean it up.”
They produced their first vintage in 1999
and today offer seven wines: a Chardonnay,
Merlot, two Pinot Noirs (one from the
Russian River Valley, the other from the
Carneros region), an Estate Cab, a Reserve
Stag’s Leap Cabernet and a red wine blend
named “Persistence.” Perhaps most unusual
of all is the bottling that includes fruit from all
of the appellations in the Napa Valley, a wine
that is intriguing, complex and captivating.
To sample some of these wines, stop by
their Tuscan-style tasting room (which also
houses the barrel room, kitchen and the
winery proper) and relax and enjoy the fruits
of their labors. The handsome tasting room
has doors opening onto a terrace facing the
pond. With dark wood, iron chandeliers, a
long tasting bar, high ceiling, views of the
vineyards and the Vaca Range and an intimate, sun-filled private tasting room, it is a
wonderful place to try the Reynolds wines
and to say hello to Bert, the winery’s resident
and beloved feline. He greets every customer
and usually by the end of the visit, if they
were not a cat person when they come in,
they leave as one.
“We’re always trying to do the right thing
when people visit. To give our guests what we
would like if we were the ones visiting the
winery.” And as you leave, take with you the
words of the man whose vision created this
experience: “There are lot of layers of love in
our wines.”
The tasting room at Reynolds Family
Winery is open every day (and most holidays)
from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. They’re located at
3266 Silverado Trail ten minutes from the
City of Napa. You can give them a call at
(707) 258-2558 for additional information or

WINE COUNTRY NEWS | WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK
NAPA CELLARS
Your Summer Stop for Two Great Labels
by Diana Greenwood
If you’re looking for superb boutique wines poured with a splash
of fun, Napa Cellars in Oakville is the place for you. With a long
history of making great wines, Napa Cellars is also well known for its
unpretentious, welcoming style and straightforward wine-speak in the
tasting room. The casual space with its domed, geometrical ceiling and
natural light is a meeting place for locals looking for the scoop on the
latest releases. Mingling with visitors new to the Napa Valley is heartily
encouraged.
Longtime winemaker, Joe Shirley, jumped through the Napa Cellars
door after the Trinchero family acquired the winery a few years ago.
Working with the established brand, he maintains the consistent
quality for which Napa Cellars is known, while also spreading his
gregarious personality from vineyard to bottle to the relaxed mood in
the tasting room. One of Joe’s favorite sayings, “Hmmm, this is fun,”
seems to sum up his love for the sensory, artistic side of his craft as well
as the experience you’ll enjoy here. There’s a bonus, too. Not only does
the tasting room showcase the award winning wines of Napa Cellars,
but also those of Folie à Deux, purchased by Trinchero Family Estates
in 2004. One stop. Two great wine labels.
If you love Chardonnay, you’re in luck. The Napa Cellars 2008
Mount Veeder Chardonnay is a single-vineyard wine unique with
characteristics from the mineral-rich mountain region. Since summer
is fast approaching, think backyard grill and lemon herb chicken with
mango salsa. Classic citrus and tropical fruit along with the lemon
acidity and minerals of Mt. Veeder terroir complement the savory
flavors of warm-weather foods. Serve this refreshing wine thoroughly
chilled and expect flavors to open and expand. One option offered at
Napa Cellars is the “Reserve Tasting” for a $10 fee, which includes the
just-released 2008 Chardonnay Mount Veeder as well as the 2006
Folie à Deux Reserve Cabernet Lewelling Vineyard. This Cabernet
hails from the oldest, continuously family-run vineyard in the Napa
Valley. At the base of the Mayacamas Mountains, Lewelling Vineyard is
renowned for producing fruit with astounding flavor and character.
Some people never get enough red and take it from fun-loving Joe
Shirley, the Napa Cellars 2007 Stagecoach Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is one you must try. Also on the Reserve Tasting menu, this wine
is from the rugged and dramatic vineyard that stretches from eastern
Oakville to Atlas Peak, climbing to 1,700 feet above the valley floor.
The determined vines love this craggy terrain, developing fruit with
extraordinary character and complexity resulting in wine that is deep
garnet in color with beautifully integrated flavors of wild blackberries,
currants and ripe plums. Speaking of wild, try the 2007 Stagecoach
Vineyard Cabernet with cedar plank grilled salmon for an entirely
different viewpoint on pairing.
30
Another tasting option, for a $5 fee, begins with a complimentary
sampling of two wines – a Napa Cellars Chardonnay and a Folie à
Deux Cabernet. Then you’ll enjoy three current releases from the
menu, the 2007 Napa Cellars Zinfandel, the 2006 Merlot and the
wonderful and rich 2007 Napa Cellars Syrah Dyer Vineyard. Syrah
fans are diehards for lush fruit and this one will not disappoint. Watch
for the new vintages of these wines, as release dates are right around
the corner.
Located at 7481 St. Helena Highway in Oakville (just north of
Mustard’s), you’ll enjoy the friendly staff and unpretentious atmosphere. The tasting room is light and airy with a central counter, the
hub of all friendly wine chatter. There are creative wine country gifts
to purchase, including a great worn-look straw vineyard hat with the
Folie à Deux logo, and to perk up your palate, there’s usually fresh
bread with olive oil for dipping. Just pop on in, no appointment is
necessary.
You’ll find plenty of parking and the grounds are lavish with lawns,
Japanese maples and purple pansies. Abundant rows of neatly
trimmed lavender bushes are beginning to bloom, the scent lingering
and refreshing and the trickle of the fountain is background music to
your picnic. Bring a lunch and enjoy a bottle of wine in the warmth of
a lazy afternoon. Napa Cellars is one of very few tasting rooms to stay
open late with hours from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m., so even if you visit
early, come back at the end of the day. As Joe says, “Hmmm. This is
fun.” For additional information and the full portfolio of boutique
wines, visit www.napacellars.com or call the winery at 1-800-5356400. To take a peak at Folie à Deux offerings, including the madcap
blend of Merlot, Syrah and Gewurztraminer that creates the famous
Ménage à Trois Rosé, visit www.folieadeux.com.

Tasting Room of the Week:
ARTESA WINERY
by Abigail Zimmerman
Have you ever wanted to taste a grape
right off the vine? Artesa Winery is giving you
that chance to give this a try, and much more.
Lace up your hiking boots, grab a glass of
bubbly and journey down to the vineyard!
After a sparkling wine greeting and a tour
of the winery, your tour guide will lead you
outside to the vineyards. Enjoy a glass of
Pinot Noir while standing in the Pinot Noir
vineyard where the grapes are grown and
discover why Pinot Noir is so hard to grow
and how the coolness of the San Pablo Bay
breeze has influenced the wine you are
sipping. After the educational tour of the
vineyard, you get to pick two more limited

Artesa is one of Napa’s newest, most
exciting wineries. More than just an exciting,
34
educational vineyard tour, Artesa’s architecturally acclaimed facility opened as Codorniu
Napa in 1991, dedicated solely to méthode
champenoise sparkling wine production. But
in 1997, with the arrival of a world-class
winemaking team, and a $10 million conversion, the winery shifted focus dramatically.
Artesa was born with the inaugural release of
ultra-premium still wines in September 1999.
A tradition carried on today by Artesa’s
current winemake, Mark Beringer.
Artesa (ahr TESS uh) means “craftsman”
and connotes “handcrafted” in Catalan,
language of Barcelona and owner, Codorniu,
one of the world’s largest and oldest
wineries. The Codorníu Group actually
consists of ten spectacular wineries whose
wines are enjoyed daily in over 100 countries
around the world. So, while Artesa may be
among Napa’s newest, the heritage is rich.
Artesa wines benefit from five centuries of
history with 15 generations of a remarkable
winemaking family.
Artesa is truly dedicated to handcrafting
small lots of ultra-premium still wines. From
the finest vineyards and foremost appellations
for each variety, Artesa creates several stylistically distinct bottlings. Style by appellation is
central to Artesa’s winemaking philosophy.
Artesa Winery is also on the cutting edge
of blending culture with fine wines. Today,
the winery is proud to boast Gordon Huether
as Artist-in-Residence. Art and architecture
are part of Artesa’s heritage, and they are
proud to continue that tradition with the
work of their resident artist. Gordon, with his
studio in Napa, creates large-scale glass and
sculpture installations across the country in
the public art realm and for private commissions.
At Artesa, Gordon shows a more personal
side of his art, creating works in a variety of
media including glass, metal and canvas.
Periodically he introduces new work at the
winery so that the exhibit is always fresh and
provocative, even for repeat visitors.
Says Gordon, “Creating art to exhibit at
Artesa fulfills my passions for minimalism
and for contemporary architecture. I’m
pleased to be here because I consider this
winery to be the finest example of contemporary architecture within a fifty mile radius.“
Continued
In addition to Gordon’s superb works of
contemporary art, new releases of Artesa
Wines may be enoyed year round. Artesa
believes that as grape growing has its
seasons and rhythms, so does winemaking.
One large variable regarding the variety of
wines produced is the time they spend
aging in oak barrels. As a result, Artesa’s
new releases of wine fall into an annual
pattern:
In the spring, Artesa will release their
Reserve and Limited Release Wines of
Reserve Cabernets, Merlots and Sauvignon
Blanc. In summer, three unique wines; Pinot
Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc and Albarino, are
released.
This coming fall brings the release of
Classic Tier Merlot, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay
and Elements blend into the marketplace.
Also released in the fall is the Reserve Tier
Tempranillo.
Finally, the winter brings their much
awaited Classic Tier Cabernet Sauvignon,
Reserve Tier Estate Pinot Noir and Estate
Chardonnay, as well as Limited Release
Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
A visit to the Artesa Visitor Center and
Tasting Room is a delight for your senses.
Guests reach it by a sweeping staircase
bordered by cascading waterfalls. The stairs
ascend past beautiful fountains, reflecting
pools and sculpture. At the top, visitors are
struck by the panoramic vistas of Napa
Valley, Carneros and the San Francisco Bay.
Within the tasting room, each guest will
be able to explore a rich and delicious
tasting menu of Artesa’s acclaimed wines
within a spectacular modernist interior, full
of rich woods, expanses of glass and dozens
of smooth columns.
The Artesa Tasting Room is open daily,
10 a.m. to 5 p.m, with the last tasting at
4:30 p.m. Artesa Vineyards & Winery
1345 Henry Road, Napa; (707) 224-1668.

The fact that sometimes you can see Calistoga’s Old Faithful geyser
blow off its hourly ration of steam just over the hedge from the
Summers Estate tasting room is only a slight added attraction. The
main attraction and the reason people visit this beautiful boutique
winery in the wilder, northernmost reaches of the Napa Valley almost
at the foot of the Palisades, is to be found in the glass. And, of course,
in the wine aging in the oak barrels at this country winery with its
picture perfect setting.
Surrounding the winery are almost two dozen acres of vines. They
include the Villa Andriana Vineyard, planted with Zinfandel, the very
rare Charbono (it is said there are less than a hundred acres planted in
the entire world) and the Cabernet Sauvignon grapes that go into a
premium wine named after the daughter of owners Jim and Beth
Summers. Called Andriana’s Cuvee, this deep, rich and complex wine
has been an award winner since the very first vintage.
The tasting room at Summers Estate Wines is open every day from
10:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. It is located at 1171 Tubbs Lane just a few
minutes north of Calistoga. For more information or directions, give
them a call at (707) 942-5508 or go go www.summerswinery.com.

Napa Valley Fine Art
RASgalleries presents Synergy of Style 2010
by Diana Greenwood
RASgalleries, Yountville’s
prestigious art glass and original
fine art gallery, located at 6540
Washington Street, will burst
into the summer season with
vivid flashes of color and the illusion of motion in new sculptural
artistry in glass by Mark Levy
and the new works of renowned
fine artist, Jean-Pierre de Rothschild. Both artists break
barriers; drawing from life experiences and the power of nature’s
influence to create contemporary
masterpieces. “Synergy of Style
2010” opens on Saturday, May WORLDS Cast glass by Mark Levy 7"w x 17"h x 2"d
15, 2010 with an artist reception
from 5 to 7 p.m. and the show will continue to inspire through the
end of June.
Mark Levy believes that glass is magical and mysterious. A master
glass artist, Levy’s passion for thick, fused cast glass is evident in rich,
overlapping layers of bottomless colors and textures that dance and
twirl, suspended with delight in his sculptures. Each original work
seems to move and change as light reflects upon the composition,
until one is immersed and mesmerized by the complexity of the
design. Levy’s judicious use of dichroic glass stringers, heated into
shapes that are inspired by stellar nebulae or creatures of the sea,
creates a sparkle that defies the laws of gravity and time.
With a diverse background from etching and printmaking to
photography and Cleo-award winning television commercials, Mark
Levy left the corporate world to follow a stronger voice. He moved to
Northern California and his experiences in the exploration of the sea,
as well as an enthrallment with Astronomy, led him to discover the
center of his world, turning his complete attention and love toward
thick fused cast glass. One of very few contemporary artists casting in
America, the process is a meticulous yet gratifying one for Levy.
Like the early glass masters of Europe, Levy begins with a spark of
an idea, a simple sketch, a 2000-degree furnace and handfuls of
colored pieces of glass that are placed into the fire. The pieces, called
“trails” are then scooped from the furnace onto a steel table then
moved to an annealing kiln. Trails are the heart of Levy’s sculptures
and can be used as background color or as the subject matter itself.
Additional pieces of cast, broken, blown or powdered glass are added
to the mix and once all components are assembled, bricks are placed
in the kiln to form an outline for the piece. Levy then begins to build,
layer by layer, shape by shape, until satisfied. The kiln is closed and
heated to temperatures above 1400 degrees, sometimes for two to
three weeks. When the piece is removed, Levy uses stone tools and
diamond-covered wheels to carve, shape and polish, trusting his
42
BLUE NEBULA Cast glass by Mark Levy 16"w x 12.5"h x 1"d
training and intuition, appreciating the science and technology of the
process, and in awe of the limitless possibilities for the medium. Mark
Levy’s art is captivating and he’s currently casting borosilicate glass that
allows large glass sculptures to be displayed outside.
“The work I do is like painting or sculpture in three dimensions
only I’m working with liquid color,” said Levy. “The effects are dramatically different and although I like working small, I’m heading in a new
direction with scale, creating larger pieces that demand a location. One
new piece for the RASgalleries show is four feet tall, architectural sculpture in Pyrex with vivid reds and yellows. It commands attention.”
Jean-Pierre de Rothschild is sometimes identified with admiration
as an “Outsider.” A term associated with extraordinary talent,
“Outsider” primarily refers to self-taught artists who capture on canvas
the emotion and evolution of life experiences, where inward reflection, the bounty of nature, ever-changing light particles, and even
isolation and rejection of the typical demands of the corporate world
serve as inspiration.
French native, Jean-Pierre de Rothschild was educated in British
schools in both economics and astrophysics and was originally an
international banker prior to picking up his palette knife at the age of
35. He learned a great deal by studying the European masters and
today creates bold and brave surreal-abstract and impressionistic
works in one of two studios located in the San Francisco Bay Area and
Paris. One can see the part that the mysterious structure of the
universe plays in his paintings. Working primarily in oil with liberal
use of the knife, Jean-Pierre’s work is like light splitting into colors, the
energy and character and spirit of each subject alive with optimism.
Like the masters, de Rothschild mixes ground glass with his last few
coats of varnish to enhance the vibrancy of color, the glass acting as a
prism, reflecting light and creating a depth and beauty into which you
can sink your soul. Jean-Pierre de Rothschild’s work is highly sought
after by international collectors and new work planned for “Synergy of
VASE en BLEU VERRE Oil painting by Jean-Pierre de Rothschild 36"w x 24"h
Style 2010” at RASgalleries has never before been seen.
RASgalleries owner, Ronda Schaer, selected the two artists for
“Synergy of Style 2010” because the amalgamation of Mark Levy’s cast
sculptural glass and de Rothschild’s oils is electric. When viewed in
tandem, pattern and color and motion accentuate the energy and
passion of each piece. “Both Levy and de Rothschild have a deep
respect and fascination for the sea,” said Schaer. “The onset of summer
with its long, sultry days, gardens in full bloom and the lure of water
with its seductive properties, is the perfect time to feature these artists
who are influenced and driven by all of nature’s wonder.”
RASgalleries, located at 6540 Washington Street in Yountville,
Napa Valley, California, may be reached by calling (707) 944-9211.

This month, the Wine Road will be partnering with Art at the
Source for its annual art and wine program. The special “Art at the
Wineries” event will feature local Sonoma area painters, sculptors,
photographers, potters, jewelers, fiber artists and glass artists on
display at more than 30 Wine Road members’ tasting rooms. This
preview is a two-month event leading up to the 16th annual “Art at the
Source Open Studios,” a self-guided, open-studio event that is held
the first two weekends in June. The Sebastopol Center for the Arts, a
grassroots, nonprofit arts center created in 1988 by a coalition of art,
business, and community members to provide art programs and
services for all sectors of the community, is the sponsor for “Art at the
Source Open Studios”.
“We are excited to once again be able to showcase beautiful local
art with our winery members,” says Beth Costa, executive director of
the Wine Road. “Visitors are given the opportunity to enjoy Sonoma
County’s visual arts, along with award-winning wines for which this
region is known.”
The Wine Road is an invaluable source for planning a perfect
weekend to experience art in the wine country. Visitors can access information on the “Art at the Wineries” event through www.wineroad.com,
including participating wineries and artists, lodging, shopping, dining
options, and more. World-class wineries, distinguished California
cuisine and a flourishing artist scene – all set against the beautiful backdrop of Sonoma County’s landscape – make for an unforgettable
getaway as Wine Road and Art at the Source celebrate art appreciation.

Tasting Room of the Week:
KENDALL-JACKSON
WINE CENTER
by Charles Neave
In the vineyards of Kendall-Jackson it has
always been about the fruit. Ask any good
vineyard manager or winemaker and that is a
mantra that rings true, as it has since the art
of turning grapes into wine began, thousands
of years ago.
As they say at Kendall-Jackson, “One of
the ‘truths’ we live by here at the winery is
that outstanding wines can only be made
from exceptional fruit. Our Estate Vineyards
are found atop cool coastal mountains, rocky
ridge tops and rolling hillsides. Places where
the climate, soil and vines come together to
create remarkable grapes. In each glass, you
will taste our family’s commitment to crafting
extraordinary Sonoma County wines from
California’s best vineyards.”
At this magnificent château, set on 120
acres in the heart of Sonoma County, wine
and food lovers gather to experience the
flavors of the region. Depending upon your
mood, you can enjoy seated wine and food
pairing, visit the tasting bar (a must), browse
50
for gifts and limited-edition wines, and tour
the vineyards and extensive herb, flower and
vegetable gardens that surround the château.
Or you can wander through the White Wine
Sensory Garden or the Red Wine Sensory
Garden. These two innovative and lovingly
tended gardens have been designed and
planted to show your senses the terms that
wine writers and educators have used to
describe what we smell and taste in the glass.
These gardens allow visitors to experience
the fruits, flowers, herbs and vegetables that
are used to describe wine. Each garden also
features the produce that pairs well with red
or white wines.
Guides encourage guests to smell the
herbs and flowers, crush the leaves between
their fingers and experience the similarities to
the aromas found in wine.
The Culinary Garden also features a wide
array of seasonal produce, with varieties of
basil, and dozens of different types of squash
and lettuce from all over the world. Edible
flowers and more than 180 varieties of heirloom tomatoes are also key components.
Heirloom tomatoes in every color of the
rainbow are undoubtedly the highlight of the
garden, and the winery celebrates them each
year during its annual Heirloom Tomato
Festival. This year’s event takes place on
September 11 and is always a sellout. But the
garden tours are available three times a day at
11 a.m., 1 and 3 p.m. (weather permitting).
There are many choices for tasting when
you visit. The Classic Tasting is $5 – you can
choose four out of eight wines to taste. Or, for
$15, you can try the Reserve Wines that are
only available in the tasting room. But the
most extravagant choice of all is the Wine &
Food Pairing. This is a not-to-be-missed occasion. Meet the Chef, taste the wines and learn
more about wine and food pairing. All are a
fun and educational experience in a beautiful
setting.
Kendall-Jackson Wine Center is open
daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and is located at
5007 Fulton Road in Fulton. For more information, call (707) 5710-8100 or visit

GLORIA FERRER CAVES & VINEYARDS
A Cross Cultural Tour and Tasting Experience
Located 40 miles north of San Francisco at the southern tip of
Sonoma County, Gloria Ferrer Caves & Vineyards is the gateway to
Sonoma Wine Country. The experience here is best described as a
charismatic hybrid that blends the winery’s vibrant Spanish tradition
with casual Sonoma County elegance and pure California wines; a
perfect addition to any wine country visit.
Savor the breathtaking views of the Carneros winegrowing appellation on Gloria Ferrers’ sun-drenched Vista Terrace, which is so much
more than a tasting room. Guests are encouraged to enjoy the winery’s
Sonoma Carneros estate vineyards while sipping the still and sparkling
wines that showcase the essence of this distinct place. The winery
tasting room is the only place to enjoy all 14 of Gloria Ferrer’s
sparkling and still wines side by side. Savory Spanish and local
cheeses, meats, almonds and other delicacies are available for
purchase, and guests are welcome to bring a picnic lunch to complement their wines.
The winery itself is a harmonious marriage of Catalan and California mission design, inspired by the Ferrer family’s 11th century
farmhouse in Sant Sandurni d’Anoia, Spain. This architectural treasure is best experienced during a daily tour, which explores the
process by which Gloria Ferrer crafts its méthode champenoise
sparkling wines. The winery’s Spanish roots are also celebrated in
colorful events throughout the year, such as the annual Catalan
Festival of Food, Wine and Music in July and the Three Kings Day
celebration and Catalan Holiday Luncheon during the holiday
season.
Hosted by Certified Wine Professional Cindy Friedman, Gloria
Ferrer’s Director of Wine Education, weekly wine education seminars
are a great way to learn about the finer points of wine and food
pairing. Cindy leads a number of seminars that include an exploration into the versatility of sparkling wines, and how Gloria Ferrer’s
52
different sparkling and still wines stand up to a variety of food flavors
and textures from spicy, fried, salty, sweet and the elusive fifth taste,
umami. Seminars are held each Friday and on one Saturday per
month from 10:30am to noon. Advance reservations are required but
every attempt will always be made to accommodate walk-ins.
Since 1998, the winegrowing team has planted and tended olive
trees on the estate. Gloria Ferrer now boasts almost 500 olive trees,
half of which are Spanish Arbequina olives and the other half, a
diverse mix of Italian varietals. The winery produces a small amount
of award winning, certified extra virgin olive oil that is sold exclusively
in the tasting room.
Gloria Ferrer has two uniquely distinct wine club opportunities for
visitors who wish to continue their Catalan/Carneros immersion experience. Choose from the Cuvée Club, which provides two bottles per
shipment, or the sparkling-only Tête de Cuvée Club, featuring six
bottles per shipment. Shipments for each club occur on a quarterly
basis and include a newsletter with winery news and tidbits and a
recipe from a local chef. Wine Club members also enjoy complimentary wine and food samples during their visits to the winery, and
special invitations to club-only events like the annual Lobster Feed
each March and club shipment carryout weekends. In addition, Gloria
Ferrer is available year-round for private and corporate events, and
weddings, and also hosts a number of other special events like the
Mother’s Day Brunch and Full Moon Harvest Dinner that are open to
all.
For more information about tours, seminars or upcoming events,
please call Special Events Coordinator Jackie Ragan at (707) 9331931, click www.gloriaferrer.com or join the conversation at
www.facebook.com/gloriaferrervineyards. Gloria Ferrer Caves &
Vineyards is located at 23555 Arnold Drive (Carneros Highway 121)
in Sonoma, California.

SONOMA VALLEY | WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK
4th Annual Passport to Sonoma Valley, May 15-16
The Ultimate “Destination” Weekend Featuring
More than 50 Sonoma Valley Wineries and Grape Growers
Tickets are now on sale for the fourth annual Passport to Sonoma
Valley, taking place May 15th and 16th from 10:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. at
wineries and vineyards throughout historic Sonoma Valley. From food
and wine aficionados to those looking for a unique, close-to-home
“travel” experience, Passport to Sonoma Valley swings open the cellar
doors of California’s oldest and most coveted artisan wineries in celebration of Sonoma’s food, wine and arts scene. Visitors to the valleywide open house will be issued a “passport,” providing them unprecedented access to the wines and wineries of California’s oldest wine
region, including special pricing and exclusive wine offers.
Tickets for Passport to Sonoma Valley are: $90/weekend, $70/
Sunday-only and $25/designated driver when purchased in advance
or $100/weekend and $80/Sunday-only and $25/designated driver
when purchased at the event (subject to availability). On the day of the
event, ticket holders, and those wishing to purchase tickets must
check in at one of four designated “start” locations – including Viansa
Winery & Marketplace, Sebastiani Vineyards & Winery, Valley of the
Moon Winery and St. Francis Winery & Vineyards – to receive their
passport and complimentary wine glass. For tickets or more information, visit www.SonomaValleyWine.com or call (707) 935-0803.
Passport to Sonoma Valley is kicking off their fourth year and the
56
unofficial start of the tourist season with a very exciting “behind the
scenes” opportunity for Passport holders. Due to last year’s success of
this component of the event, participating wineries are partnering
with their growers to provide the ultimate tasting experience; pouring
their best wines on site in the vineyards where the grapes were
sourced. In addition to feeling an even greater connection between
the “grape and the glass,” Passport attendees will enjoy the rare – and
often breathtaking - opportunity to taste among the vines of Sonoma’s
most exclusive vineyards, not normally open to the public.
Passport to Sonoma Valley provides a unique opportunity to go
beyond the traditional tourist experience; to discover the people,
places and wines that make Sonoma Valley one of the world’s great
wine regions. This journey of discovery will take passport holders off
the beaten path to tiny cult wineries not normally open to the public,
to historic estates that ushered in the California wine industry and to
the many family-owned and operated wineries that define Sonoma’s
“farm to table” culture. Each winery will showcase the very best of
their current release, library wines and special bottlings, food pairings
and entertainment. Special discounts and after hours shopping will
also be part of the two celebration.
Visit www.SonomaValleyWine.com to see the list of participating
wineries – updated regularly – along with activities planned for this
year’s Passport to Sonoma Valley.
Roses, Rosé and Chocolate
for Breakfast on Mother’s Day
at B.R. Cohn Winery, May 9
Moms will be greeted with a smile, a long-stemmed rose and
complimentary wine tasting at the B.R. Cohn Winery tasting room
on Mother’s Day, May 9. The tasting room will be releasing the 2009
Rosé and author and chef, Barbara Passino will be on hand from
noon to 3 p.m. to sign her cookbook, Chocolate for Breakfast.
The 2009 Rosé ($18) is produced in a traditional French Rhone
style. Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre make this a seductive and
complex wine. It has wonderful tropical aromas and a delightful
touch of raspberry, cherry and peach flavors with hints of spice in the
finish. Slightly chilled, this Rosé is the ultimate wine to kick off the
warm weather season and celebrate Mom.
Barbara Passino is the proprietor/chef of Oak Knoll Inn, a luxurious, intimate inn nestled amidst rows of grapevines in Napa Valley,
California’s Wine Country. Her decadent breakfasts have become
California legend and attract visitors from all over the world.
B.R. Cohn Winery is located at 15000 Sonoma Highway 12 in
Glen Ellen. The tasting room is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Founded in 1984 by Bruce Cohn, the estate winery is known for its

Mendocino County Tourism Bureau Launches New Website
More than ever, Mendocino County is a top destination for travelers
. To serve these travelers and share resources for lodging, activities,
events, food, wine and much more. Visit Mendocino County has
completely remodeled and refreshed the official county website. The
new www.VisitMendocino.com includes key links, facts and tools
designed specifically for Mendocino County visitors.
Leading the entire site project was Alydia Atkins, the Director of
Communications, Visit Mendocino County, Inc. “After careful
research, we created a new site that provides easy access to the information visitors want fast. We partnered with Venture Web Design, a
site design and programming company that came up with smart solutions and a great look. To build the best searchable site, we even
recruited local businesses, inns and event directors to enter fresh data.
When the site went live this week, and the gorgeous coastal and inland
images popped up on computers around the world, we could almost
feel the “WOW” factor over the Internet.
According to Atkins, the new site is organized simply and logically,
with a key emphasis on events, accommodations and directories for
food and wine. The new video section enables local businesses to
share their story online, and for visitors to take a video tour of destinations. Some of the other key site benefits include quick traveler
tools and social media elements like Twitter and Facebook to stay
completely updated on news from the county.
Mendocino County offers visitors a range of activities and accommodations for active lifestyles, romantic getaways or regionally
sourced food and wine experiences. For more information on Mendocino County, call 1-866-466-3636 (1-866-GO-MENDO), or visit the

LIVERMORE | WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK
Concannon Vineyard Announces
New Conservancy Wine Tier
Concannon Vineyard recently released a new Conservancy tier of
wines from – sourcing grapes only from Livermore vineyards that are
protected forever from urban encroachment.
“These wines are a tribute to my great-grandfather, James
Concannon, who founded our winery in 1883,” says John
Concannon, fourth generation vintner. “He knew that the austere
soil, full of rocks and gravel, coupled with the coastal fog and marine
breezes from the San Francisco Bay, would concentrate flavors in the
ripening fruit and allow him to make rich, complex, flavorful wines
that are truly unique. Conservancy wines honor his legacy as they are
sourced from vineyards under a new conservancy program for
perpetuity. The wines are crafted to reflect true varietal character,
express the unique terroir of the Livermore Valley and showcase the
best of what this region has to offer.”
“Concannon Conservancy wines also conform to the practice of
growing grapes and making wine with minimal impact. Concannon
Vineyard is proud to be one of the first seventeen wineries to be certified through the California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance
(CSWA),” he continued
Concannon’s Conservancy includes Livermore Valley Petite Sirah,
Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Merlot; all have a suggested
retail of $15.

Spring Release Party at Taste Morgan, May 8
Saturday, May 8th Taste Morgan Will Feature New Release
Single-Vineyard Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from Top SLH Vineyards
Tasting room manager Deborah Canepa is planning a bash to celebrate the release of Morgan Winery’s spring wines and limited-production, single-vineyard Pinot Noirs and Chardonnay. Recent bottlings of
the 2009 R&D Franscioni Vineyard Pinot Gris and 2009 Sauvignon
Blanc are available for tasting now at Taste Morgan, as well as small
production spring wines from the Lee Family Farm label including
Verdelho and rosé. To highlight the celebration Deborah is planning to
release Morgan’s 2007 Rosella’s Vineyard and Tondre Grapefield Pinot
Noirs. Additionally, the 2008 Rosella’s Vineyard Chardonnay – previously only released to the Double L Club – will be available for tasting
and purchase.
Great food and fun will complement Morgan’s line-up of terrific
wines. The release party will be held from noon to 5 p.m. on Saturday,
May 8. Taste Morgan is located in Carmel’s Crossroads Shopping
Village at 204 Crossroads Blvd. Information on all Morgan
Winery events can be found online at MorganWinery.com and
Facebook.com/MorganWinery.
Founded in 1982, Morgan Winery is a family owned and operated
business. Winegrower Dan Lee and winemaker Gianni Abate collaborate to craft wines which elegantly express the terroir from Morgan’s
organically grown Double L Vineyard and select vineyards in the Santa
Lucia Highlands and northern Monterey appellations.

MONTEREY/CENTRAL COAST | WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK
May Flowers in the Santa Cruz Mountains
By Laura Ness
May is the month where the rains of spring are a memory and the
vines are blooming at their peak in the Santa Cruz Mountains – walk
through the rows of Merlot at Burrell School and be amazed at the
charming pepper and citrus fragrances wafting up from the tiny lilacshaped cones. You’ll also witness grafting over of a block of
Chardonnay to Cabernet Franc, the winery’s signature wine. Up at
Loma Prieta, the spicy white-pepper-scented Cabernet and Merlot will
be in full bloom: we pray that we won’t see a return of those dreaded
pistol-hot offshore winds that we experienced in 2008 (who could
forget that fire), which literally blew the teensy flowers right off the
vines, causing huge crop loss throughout the region for Bordeaux varieties. Chardonnay and Pinot are typically flowering in April, but
Merlot and Cabernet are a bit more like roses: they prefer not to rush
into things.
Speaking of roses, on Mother’s Day weekend, May 8th and 9th, the
rose garden at Burrell School will officially be open for everyone to
enjoy.
Visit Poetic Cellars with Mom, where custom Mother’s Day labels
are available: Katy’s Late Harvest Viognier makes a great gift, and the
beautiful “Ballad” blend is worth a song. All month long, Poetic Cellars
celebrates “The Art of Wine,” with a series of art exhibits, including an

appearance by Jude Bischoff.
Do wine and trains mix? Find out on May 23rd, when the Santa
Cruz Mountain Wine Express choo-choos into Roaring Camp in
Felton, the only gathering where all the SCMWA wineries attend. It’s
usually hot, so you’ll want to grab one of our Corky the Wine Whale
squirt guns and have some old-fashioned fun! If you haven’t gotten
your Corky the Wine Whale embroidered patch yet, visit one of the
Summit to Sea wineries: Burrell School, Loma Prieta, Hunter Hill,
Poetic Cellars or Vine Hill to score your very own spouting whale!
(www.summit2seawinetrail.com)
Up at Loma Prieta, visit on May 15 & 16, where you’ll groove to
live music by local flamenco guitar sensation Roderigo Teague, jewelry
by Elizabeth Moon and a fine art display by Jude Bischoff, who did the
“Dancing Schoolhouse” label for Burrell School. Bring a picnic and
enjoy the most dramatic coastal view in the mountains while sipping
Gold medal wines. Play bocce with a view of the ocean blue: you
might spot a spouting whale in the shimmering distance.
Santa Lucia Highlands Gala
The Wine Artisans of the Santa Lucia Highlands’ fourth
annual Gala tasting, will take place from 2 to 5 p.m. on
Saturday, May 15 at Hahn Estates. This “Highlands’ Fling”
celebration will be a strolling wine tasting on the grounds of
the scenic Hahn property, with dramatic views of the Salinas
Valley below. The event will feature the most prized vintages
and special reserves of the S.L.H.’s artisan winemakers –
paired to delicacies prepared by award-winning local chefs.
Tickets are $85 per person and can be purchased at
www.santaluciahighlands.com.
