INTELLIGENCE FOR THE WINE CONSUMER
BY LEN NAPOLITANO
Are Syrah and Petite Sirah the same wines?
Petite Sirah, also known in parts of the wine world as durif, is
often used as a blending grape. Although it is not commonly bottled
as a single grape varietal, as a blender or by itself, it creates a unique,
bold and interesting wine. It has a dense, inky quality with intense
black fruit flavors. In fact, there isn't much about it I would describe
as Petite. If you like big, intense red wines, you will like Petite Sirah.
The Syrah grape, however, is more frequently used to make single
grape variety wine and creates a more moderately powerful wine
compared to Petite Sirah. There is a distant DNA connection between
the two grapes, but they are generally regarded as two different and
distinct grapes.
Syrah’s true home is acknowledged to be a region of France called
the Northern Rhône. It is in the lower eastern section of the country
and it is defined by the north-south running Rhône River. The most
famous French wine from this region that is made from Syrah is
called Hermitage and the style represents Syrah’s potential as a dense,
dark and spicy wine, with a deep ruby color. Its bold, peppery flavors
make Syrah a popular choice to serve with strong flavorful foods such
as game and stews.
In Australia, the Syrah grape is known as Shiraz, and it has become
Australia’s trademark red grape. Australian wine producers, as well as
American winemakers, have also blended Syrah with another black
grape, Cabernet Sauvignon, with tremendous success. It is complex
and tannic and will age well for many years, possibly decades.
In California, the one region coming known for its quality wines
made with Syrah is the Central Coast, particularly the areas of Paso
Robles and Santa Maria, and extending into Santa Barbara County
and the Santa Ynez area. Wines from this region represent the
richness of Syrah at easily affordable prices.

BY JOSH STEIN
Cover Crops:
When to Mow the Lawn and Other Decisions
I know I wondered as I drove past, so I am positive you have, too.
Why do some vineyards have nothing between the rows while others
have every other or even every row filled with spiky and flowery
green, yellow, red, and even brown plants? Believe it or not, you can
tell a lot – not just about the weather but about the vineyard
management philosophy – just by looking between the rows of vines
rather than at them as is usually the case.
Cover crops matter because they affect the soil health the vines are
growing within and the irrigation levels of that soil. They have a
huge impact on erosion control, which is vital in wet Winter months
on vine-dormant hillsides. Equally, in the drier times, cover crops
help with dust control, which also means pest control and
encouragement of beneficial bugs. And depending on the kind of
crops chosen and the microclimate’s proclivity to frost, cover crops
can help to protect vines from inclimate weather damage.
The reasons cover crops are so important are connected to what
vines don’t do: move once in place, so everything around them

becomes really important. Unlike annual row crops, it’s four years
before vines start to give commercial production levels, and it’s often
two decades or more between replantings – if at all as there are
empirical connections between older vines and great wines. In that
context, the mutability of cover crops becomes apparent, necessary,
and prudent, no?
Here are just some of the list of decisions which inform covercropping: tilling the land initially is pretty much a given, but some
decide not to physically disturb the soil on flat ground so as to
maintain soil vitality while others till annually or more frequently in
order to put amendments, including the cover crops themselves,
more directly into the soil adjacent to the vines. Hillside vineyards
present other considerations, including erosion control provided by
the appropriate plants. Then there’s the issue of using annuals or
perennials for your between-row plantings, with the obvious
difference being costs and labor, but this also correllates to another
decision: whether to use different cover crops each year, allowing a
cycling through of amendments, or to use a mix of crops year after
year.
That’s not all by a longshot. Given the impact on soil irrigation
levels, you will see a variety of stripping patterns in the vineyards of
wine country, which reveals a lot about the year’s weather to date to
the discerning eye. Is it early but the cover crops are already gone? A
dry winter with no rain in sight, so nothing is allowed to compete
with vine irrigation. Already late Spring and the vineyards still look
abundant with all sorts of grasses, clovers, and mustards? A very wet
year with the cover crops still above ground to help pull water out of
the soil. Some rows mown or tilled in early Spring? Someone’s
making adjustments to soil water levels in different areas of the
vineyard, responding in a very immediate way to what the weather
gives and takes away.
It’s a lot to think about, no? The next time you drive by or get to
go into a vineyard, not only will you now know what you’re seeing,
you’ll know why it’s there, and when you then taste the wines from
that vineyard, you’ll have a bit of insight into why it’s so much easier
to be a California winemaker these days: so much of the heavy
work – in the vineyard and in the head – is already done long before
we see the resulting grapes. Enjoy!

PeJu PRovINCe WINeRY

Peju is, quite simply, a place unlike any other. It’s no accident that the winery is called
Peju Province, for it presents a world unto itself and tasting experiences unlike anything else
in the Valley. Originally founded in 1982 by Tony and Herta Peju on thirty acres in
Rutherford, Peju is now also the responsibility of daughters Lisa and Ariana and has
expanded its reach to include the one hundred twenty-acre Persephone Ranch in Pope
Valley, too. The winery is well known for its highly regarded bottlings of Cabernet Franc,
Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc, Syrah and several blends,
including the proprietary Provence, a red/white wine, and Fifty/Fifty, an equal mix of
Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, the 2009 bottling of which was declared one of “Twelve
Napa Standouts” by Wine Spectator. There are also several tasting-room-only releases
perfect for the spring and summer, including the lovely white Carnival; Peju Pink, with ten
percent of its proceeds funding cancer assistance in the Valley; and the Rosé of Syrah.
It’s not just the wines, by any means, which make Peju unforgettable. The winery and its
surroundings and the variety of options for experiencing the wines are what truly set Peju
apart. Driving down the Sycamore-lined private lane away from Highway 29 leads to first
sight of “the Tower,” the fifty-foot, copper-topped space which houses the main tasting area,
framed on the inside in gorgeous woods and an antique 1906 ten-by-twenty-foot stained
glass window and on the outside by stone and copper. Surrounding this are the gardens
designed by Tony and personally maintained by Herta herself. A Curly Willow grows next
to a koi pond, and rocks from the Pope Valley estate dot the area. The circular courtyard in
front of the winery contains a magnificent Camphora Tree, ushering you into the
experiences which await.
And those experiences are the true standouts as even a “regular” tasting at Peju is far and
away anything but regular. The Classic Tasting is conducted in a novel presentation style,
with groups of tasters spending time with an ambassador who discusses the wine,
winemaking, and the winery
itself. There is also a Private
Tasting available several times
each morning for those who
desire some special alone time
or for larger groups. Equally,
individualizing the experience is
what Peju is all about, so the
“Premier Peju Experiences” give
some great options. “Peju Visita
Vigne” provides a walkaround
tour of the estate in conjunction
with wine and cheese. “Peju
Fromage” is a wine and cheese
tasting in the Peju Kitchen,
bringing great wines together
with local artisan cheeses and
winery-made crackers. “Peju
Cèpage” presents a private tour
of the estate, vineyards and
gardens in combination with a
barrel tasting. “Peju Privé” gives
a sitdown reserve wine tasting
of winery-only, limited-release
bottlings in the beautiful Uluru
Room. While all of the Premier
Peju Experiences require an
advanced appointment, the
winery has thought ahead, and
each can be booked online
through Peju’s website or on
VinoVisit.com.
And that’s really what makes
Peju special – everything has
been thoughtfully considered
ahead of time, turning even the
most common of Napa
moments – a tasting of wines in
a tasting room – into a special,
memorable, uncommon event.
Come on out to Rutherford and
experience what’s made Peju
unique for thirty years. Every
weekend there is something
new, something special,
something wonderful – new
releases, art receptions, holiday
fairs and more. You won’t be
sorry, and you really won’t want
to leave. Come check out the
fun off Highway 29 – you’ll be
glad you did!

Pedal through Wine Country
BY DENISE OLLIFFE
Every so often, it’s fun to step outside of your normal routine, and have an
adventure. If you’re heading to Wine Country, consider strapping on a helmet, and
taking in the scenery by way of a Napa Valley Bike Tours (and Sonoma Valley Bike
Tours) trek.
Napa and Sonoma counties are regarded by cyclists the world over, as having
some of the finest terrain in the world. These exciting tours present an opportunity to
have a real outdoor escape, while touring some of the best wineries each county has
to offer.
A tour for every taste and level of fitness
Cycling allows visitors to connect with the surroundings in a way that can only be
experienced on two wheels – out in the open air. Napa Valley Bike Tours (and
Sonoma Valley Bike Tours) offers routes for for any level of experience, fitness and
desire. Clear details on each tour are provided on its website, to help you choose
which ride will best suit your needs, such as:
Classic Bike Tour: designed “for the tourist, not the cyclist,” this tour keeps pace
with the variety of fitness levels within each group. A friendly, knowledgeable local
tour guide escorts the pack along flat and gently rolling terrain, pedaling 2-5 miles
between winery visits.
Cycling IN the Vineyards: Designed for tourists who are looking for something a
bit more adventurous, cyclists are taken on dirt roads through the vineyards – on flat
to bumpy, gently rolling terrain between wineries. Cyclists are taken on dirt roads
through the vineyards – pedaling 2-5 miles on flat to bumpy, gently rolling terrain
between wineries.
Self-Guided Bike Tours: let professionals help you plan a cycling route geared
toward your fitness level and desired mileage, and provide you with a detailed map.
Even the most avid cyclist will be thrilled with the savvy advice that will guide you on
an ultimate journey. You can even upgrade electric bike for only $20 additional – if
you’d rather soak up the scenery, without much exertion!
These are just a few examples of the fun adventures Napa Valley Bike Tours (and
Sonoma Valley Bike Tours) has available to visitors. Additional options include a hotair balloon ride, spa and pool amenities, and more.
Each tour provides riders with bicycle that best suits the terrain – such as
mountain bikes for off-road trails, or road bikes. Each rider is provided with a helmet,
a picnic lunch (or box lunch on a self-guided tour), a souvenir water bottle, van
support if needed (including wine purchase pick-up service), and a handlebar bag to
hold your essentials such as a wallet, sunscreen or camera. Cost varies per tour.

Bottle Blending Day Camp
Play Winemaker for a Day at Judd’s Hill
One of the reasons that Napa Valley
consistently ranks among the top tourism
destinations in the world is that there are
always new things to do, taste and
experience, no matter how often you return
to this diverse and innovative grape-growing
region. Though the history of wine spans
millennia; the winemaking process is
rediscovered and re-imagined with every
new vintage. At Judd’s Hill Winery and
MicroCrush, visitors are encouraged to use
their creativity and imagination while
learning first hand about the final stage of the
winemaking process.
In 2009, the Finkelstein family of Judd’s
Hill had the forward-thinking idea of
creating a “Bottle Blending Day Camp”
experience (BBDC for short), during which
visitors to their winery, located at the
southern end of Napa’s Silverado Trail, can
actually craft their own, personal, Napa
Valley Bordeaux-style blend. The wines used
for this blending experience currently
include barrel lots of two Cabernet
Sauvignons, each from a different vineyard,
plus a Merlot and Cabernet Franc, all from
Napa Valley’s 2010 vintage.
Judd’s Hill specializes in making small lots
of hand-crafted wines for their Judd’s Hill
label, and for dozens of their Custom
MicroCrush clients. It can take years to
convert clusters of grapes into a ready-todrink bottle of red wine. Blending finished
wine, however, is a vital part of the
winemaking process that can be
accomplished in a relatively short time.
These BBDC experiences are led by
extremely knowledgeable and passionate
wine educators and take about two hours to
complete. During the session, a wine
educator will guide blenders through the
intricacies of creating a wine best suited to
the tastes of the blender, explaining and
demystifying the process along the way. Once
a favored cuvée has been decided upon and a
name is chosen, the newly minted wineblenders will complete the process by
hand-bottling, labeling and “spinning” foil
capsules over the bottle necks. The wine is
then ready to take home the same day. It’s a
great way to spend a few hours in wine
country and is sure to increase any wine
lover’s knowledge and appreciation for every
bottle of wine they enjoy in the future.
The Bottle Blending Day Camp at Judd’s
Hill has several options: $225 enables you to
take home three finished bottles of wine;
$395 results in six bottles; $695 is a 12-
bottle adventure. A 24-case, full barrel
option, is also available (bottling will be at
later date). Sessions can be scheduled for any
day of the week, and 24 hours advanced
notice is usually sufficient for groups as large
as eight. The Judd’s Hill BBDC experience is
also a great outing for larger groups ranging
in size from 10-100. Reservations can be
made by calling the winery at (707) 2552332 or visiting their website at
www.juddshill.com.

The aerial tram ride to the top of Sterling Vineyards just never gets old. In
fact, if there’s one thing to do every visit to Napa Valley it’s ride the Sterling tram,
because every time it seems brand new. During this, the wintery time of year,
you’ll find nearly bare vines set against a lush green backdrop of evergreens and
cover crops. Early in the day the low hanging fog frames the valley and creates
the perfect lighting for memorable photos; later most days the fog yields to bright
sunlight and enhanced visibility up and down the valley.
There’s lots of other newness afoot at the top of the hill, too, where the newly
upgraded self-guided winery tour provides visitors an opportunity to set their
own pace as they learn about Sterling’s vineyard and winery practices. Once you
hop off the tram, you’ll start off at the covered outdoor tasting station on the
mezzanine level to enjoy the first few samples of wine and get a quick primer on
the self-guided tour.
When the winery was built in 1971, winery founder Peter Newton styled the
Mediterranean white stucco building after structures on the Greek island of
Mykonos, where he had once lived. The winery was designed to be visitorcentered, with public viewing at every critical juncture of wine production. This
visitor-friendly design makes Sterling a great place to take a tour, especially one
that is self-paced so the curious can linger over the crushpad or beside the barrel
room as long as they like. The winery recently added video presentations at each
tour stop, with in-depth information about each step of the winemaking process.
After the self-guided tour, it’s on to the visitor center, where the doting and
WINe CouNtRY tHIs WeeK | oN tHe CoveR
well-informed Sterling staff will seat you and serve you tableside
and maybe even by the roaring fireplace. Upgrade to the VIP tasting
and you’ll have the opportunity to sample some of the wonderful
single-vineyard and reserve wines Sterling is best known for, such
as the Three Palms Merlot and Diamond Mountain Cabernet
Sauvignon.
On clear days, Sterling hosts guests on the upper deck, where
you’ll have a panoramic view and a nearly bird’s eye view of Three
Palms vineyard just to the south and east of the winery. It’s not
unusual for a winter’s day in Napa Valley to be in the 60s and
sunny, fine weather to enjoy a tasting on the deck.
The winery is also proudly showcasing the new 2009 Platinum,
the first wine to come out of Sterling’s revamped reserve program.
At 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, this is a big delicious wine with lovely
dark fruit balanced by notes of toasty oak and mocha.
Sterling has an incredibly loyal following among sweet wine
fans. The perennially favored Malvasia Bianca has become so
popular at Sterling that they now have a Malvasia Bianca Wine
Club, with members receiving two bottles of this heady elixir
monthly. Other sweets on the wine list include the luscious Muscat
and the aromatically captivating late harvest Riesling.
General admission at Sterling Vineyards is just $25, including
aerial tram, self-guided tour and tasting of five wines. Upgrade to
the VIP tasting for an additional $10.
Visitors can book tram tickets in advance online at

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

WCtW: What’s the best wine country picnic spot?
ee: Sonoma has an abundance of superb picnicfriendly wineries. One of my favorites is Hop Kiln
Winery. Their grounds offer numerous tables
placed around decorative ponds set in a
breathtakingly beautiful garden. Their helpful staff
can help with serving utensils as well as a nice
array of food items.
WCtW: Which winery has the best wine-related
gifts for shopping?
ee: Matanzas Creek is not only a beautiful
winery, but it is also very well-known for growing
lavender. Their gift area is filled with a wide array
of wine-related products but moreover products
using their lavender.
WCtW: Where do you send guests that want to
learn abut wine?
ee: If a guest has never taken a winery tour before,
I love to send them to Benziger, as I feel their
tramway tour through the property is the best in
all of wine country to illustrate the making of
wine from grape to glass. However, if one of my
guests is truly looking to educate themselves on
all areas of wine, I love to send them to KendallJackson Wine Center. From production to taking
a walk in their sensory gardens to experience firsthand what really goes into wine pairings and
blending, KJ does it like no other and should not
be missed.
WCtW: Where is your favorite place to visit and
taste organic wines?
ee: Deerfield Ranch Winery is not only certified
organic, they also produce “Clean Wine” which is
a term used to signify the lowest level of
histamines possible. No more red wine headaches!
Their cave tasting room is a cozy place to sample
wines, not to mention pet friendly as well.
WCtW: Describe the perfect day in wine country.
tJ: Light breakfast at Sweetie Pies in Downtown
Napa; Pick up lunch at Genova’s Deli; Round
Pond Winery and Olive Oil Mill; Rutherford Hill
Winery for wine tasting and picnic lunch
overlooking the valley; cave tour at Schramsberg
Winery; Robert Biale Vineyards – wrap the day
up with some of the best Zin in the industry!
WCtW: What’s your favorite overall varietal and
where do you like to go to taste it?
tJ: Living in the Napa Valley, there is only one
logical choice here: Cabernet Sauvignon! Silver
Oak Cellars,: the “original cult winery,” 100%
American oak, great stuff!
WCtW: What winery do you think has the best
“over-the-top” experience to offer visitors?
tJ: Palmaz Winery: This experience will be a
memory for life … must do.
WCtW: Where would you take friends to learn
about/taste organic wines?
tJ: Frog’s Leap Winery is the true pioneer in this
category.
WCtW: Who is your favorite new winery or hot
spot wine bar/tasting room?
tJ: Odette Estate Winery in the Stags Leap
District. It’s all three; a winery, a wine bar and a
tasting room … great staff, fair pricing and
excellent wines: Odette, Plumpjack and Cade are
all available here. Also, it’s less than ten minutes
from downtown Napa.
WCtW: Tell us the best wineries to bring pets.
tJ: With more than 100 wineries posting “dogfriendly” signs in the Napa Valley, most dogs
would be in heaven on any visit to the Napa
Valley. However, Rombauer Vineyards would
top this list. Long history of dog lovers there!
WCtW: If you were to visit just one winery,
which would you choose and why?
JL: It’s difficult to answer this question because
there are so many amazing wineries, but If I had
to chose one winery it would have to be
Darioush. From the moment you enter the gate,
you are transported into an amazing experience:
the impressive architecture, world-class wines
and the impeccable service.
WCtW: Which winery has your favorite cave
tour?
JL: Schramsberg
WCtW: What’s your favorite overall varietal and
where do you like to go to taste it?
JL: My ultimate varietal would be Pinot Noir and I
would either go to Artesa or Domaine Carneros.
WCtW: Where do you send guests that want to
learn about wine?
JL: I think Robert Mondavi has one of the best
educational programs.
WCtW: Where would you take friends to learn
about/taste organic wines?
JL: Frog’s Leap
WCtW: What areas and/or wineries would you
recommend that are not part of the popular wine
country?
JL: The Russian River Valley
WCtW: Tell us the best wineries to bring pets.
JL: Landmark, Artesa and Chateau Montelena
WCtW: Which winery has your favorite
cave/cellar tour?
JL: Schramsberg
WCtW: What’s the best wine country picnic spot?
JL: Pride Mountain Vineyards
Remember: Please sip responsibly! Plan to taste at no more than three wineries based on these recommendations.

Andretti Winery Unveils Two Talents for its Artist-in-Residence
Program – Photographer Mars Lasar and Painter Kim Wild
Andretti Winery welcomes
two new artists to its on-site art
gallery in the next phase of the
winery’s Artist in Residence
Program. The first 2013 exhibit
features the fine art photography
of Mars Lasar and the soulful
paintings of Kim Wild. The
opening party for the artists will
take place on Friday, April 26th
from 6 to 8 p.m.; the evening is
part of the celebrated Napa
Valley Arts in April program.
At the opening, Andretti will
showcase the winery’s latest
releases – Villa Red Blend and
Villa White Blend.
Kim Wild at Andretti Winery
Kim Colombo Wild was born and raised in San Francisco and
currently resides in the Napa Valley. Locally, her art has been featured
in galleries in Calistoga, Napa and St. Helena, including Copia and
Vino Bello Resort. Kim’s paintings are deeply personal expressions,
using a variety of mediums and textures to create what she describes
as, “anticipated, sporadic and bold statements.”
Kim’s art will be featured in the West Wing (the Board Room) of
the Tuscan Villa and in the Tuscan House.
She will be at the winery on the following Saturdays from noon to
5 p.m.: May 25, June 29, July 20 and August 17.
Andretti Winery Releases villa Red & villa White Blends
at Artist in Residence Party
mars Lasar at Andretti Winery
Mars Lasar was born in Germany and raised in Sydney, Australia.
He utilizes traditional photography and cutting-edge computer
technology to explore his fine art photography skills.
Mars is also a famed platinum award-winning music composer,
keyboardist and producer. He has worked with many famous artists
and has recorded more than 30 solo albums. His work can be heard
on CSI, America’s Most Wanted, Medium 24 and American Idol,
among others.
Throughout spring and summer 2013, Mars’s work will be on
view at the Andretti Gallery, encompassing the main area of the
Tuscan Villa.
The artist will be at the winery from noon to 5 p.m. on the
following Saturdays: May 18, June 29, July 27 and August 24.
34
Concurrent with the launch of Andretti Winery’s latest additions
to its Artist in Residence program, the winery is releasing its Villa
Blend Series. The new Villa Blend wines are a subtly sweet and
creative blending of varietals with a bit of residual sugar remaining
sourced from a variety of premium vineyards in California.
The Villa Red Blend is 70% Sangiovese with bright fruit
characteristics and aromas of strawberry, plum, boysenberry, cassis
and spice. The fruit explodes on entry with a rich medium body,
good balance and very pleasing finish.
The Villa White Blend contains Sauvignon Blanc as its core varietal
with the balance of the blend comprised of primarily Muscat Blanc,
Viognier and Chardonnay. It contains the highest quality fruit,
resulting in a crisp, fruit-forward, semi-sweet and refreshing white
wine with aromas of citrus, bananas, pears, orange blossom, spice
and guava.
The new Andretti Winery Blends will be available for the first time
at the Artist in Residence Release Party on Friday, April 26th from 6
to 8 p.m. at the winery. Light hors d’oeuvres and music will make the
evening complete.

beat the French in the 1976 Judgment in Paris. The event became the
foundation for the movie Bottle Shock.
This complimentary excursion will be led by Violet and will

Dubrovnik, a Grgich wine-paired lunch at a local restaurant and a

onboard wine program and the complimentary Croatian winery tour
and lunch. Travelers who book their cruise by April 30th will also

Tablas Creek Vineyard winemaker Neil Collins is taking his group
to their sister winery, Chateau Beaucastel in Chateauneuf-du-Pape.
The day is co-hosted by Beaucastels owners, the Perrin family who
also co-own Tablas Creek Vineyard in Paso Robles and will include
tastings of the estate wines and a lunch prepared by the winery‘s
Michelin-rated chef.

Come and taste what the wine experts are raving about at Summers Estate Winery
in Northern Napa Valley! Located off Highway 128 in beautiful Calistoga, Summers
Estate winery and tasting room holds stunning panoramic views of Mt. St. Helena and
the Palisades, attracting wine lovers near and far to taste their gold medal award
winning wines.
Of the nearly 400 wineries that exist in Napa Valley, only half of the wineries own
their own estate vineyards. Jim and Beth Summers take pride in their vineyards,
owning and farming 45 acres in the Calistoga AVA including 25 acres on Tubbs Lane
which carry the vineyard designation of Villa Andriana Vineyard, named after their
daughter. In addition, Summers’ also has a 30-acre vineyard in Knights Valley in
Sonoma County, comprised mainly of Merlot grapes with some Muscat Canelli. All of
their vines are tended by winemaker Ignacio “Nacho” Blancos and his vineyard team
for more than 16 years. Together, they bring a wealth of experience to every bottle of
wine, producing 10,000 cases annually.
The Summers Estate Winery’s signature wine is Charbono, a rare varietal, winning
a gold medal from the 2013 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition for its 2010
Calistoga, Napa Valley Charbono vintage. The name Charbono is thought to be an
early Italian immigrant version of Charbonneau, a French varietal. Some believe this
variety is a close relative to the Dolcetto variety, widely grown in Northern Italy. The
vine bears very large berries that are used to make a very dark red wine that, when
subjected to extended skin contact during fermentation, is full of fruit flavor and low
in tannins. This unique varietal sells for only $32 per bottle.
Other award winning wines to try are the Summers 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon,
Calistoga which received 92 points from the Wine Enthusiast, Summers 2009 FourAcre Zinfandel, Calistoga with 93 points, and Summers 2009 Petite Sirah, Knights
Valley with 92 points.
Don’t miss their Sampler 6-Bottle Laydown Box Set with current releases,
including Charbono, Zinfandel, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah varietals
for just $180.
For wine club members, the Summers Estate Winery hosts two events in the
summer and fall every year in their beautiful patio area overlooking Mt. St. Helena.
The Summer Solstice party offers their members a sample of their select wines with a
delicious local catered meal for approximately $125. The Harvest party is a
smorgasbord of lobster and shrimp good for the taking displayed at the center of a long
dining room table and served with a menu of their current release wines for $100.
Whether you are a wine club member or stopping by for the day, Jim and Beth
Summers want you to come, relax and spend a little time at their winery overlooking
the mountain views while tasting their red wines. “Most people refer us to their
friends because we are a comfortable, low-key, small family winery,” say Beth.
Summers Estate Winery is open 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. every day. You can taste four
wines for $15 or a flight of Reserve Wines for $20. Fees are waived with wine
purchase.
With a welcoming winery and tasting room, entertainment center, bocce ball
court, picnic area and 25+ acres of vines (Zinfandel, Charbono and Cabernet
Sauvignon), Summers Estate Winery promises an unforgettable experience with the
perfect balance of pleasure and productivity.

around the globe. And, it certainly warrants
planning ahead and making that slight turn
off of busy Highway 29 to experience it all
for yourself.
Jessup Cellars is open daily 10 a.m. to 6
p.m. (last seated tasting at 5 p.m.,
reservations are needed for seated tastings)
and is located at 6740 Washington Street,
Yountville; (707) 944-8523.

From the time you enter the stone-faced
structure, past the outdoor fireplace and the
native plants that adorn the front, Jessup
Cellars tasting room is a wonderful
experience. The wines are excellent, the
people are friendly (while also being efficient
and knowledgeable about their wines, art
and hospitality in general). But there are
some things you will find when you visit
that set Jessup apart from the rest.
As any staff member will proudly
proclaim if asked, Jessup is “all about the
experience.” Walk-in visitors are welcomed
at the tasting bar, but for those seeking a
more intimate occasion, the by-appointment
semi-private tastings are the way to best
enjoy the tasting room and staff. Taking
place within Jessup’s art gallery, visitors get
to enjoy a range of wines available only from
the winery in a relaxed, no attitude
environment. In fact, if you ask the right
people around the Valley, you’ll hear the
same response: it’s the staff at Jessup, their
willingness to answer any question, their joy
at getting to share what they love about the
wines, which really makes the distinction.
Jessup Cellars offers Napa Valley
Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, a Napa Valley
Zinfandel, a local Petite Sirah and a
Cabernet Sauvignon produced using Napa
Valley fruit.
Jessup Cellars also makes a Merlot and
two ports, one from Cabernet and the other
from Zinfandel grapes. Every one of these
limited-edition, hand-crafted bottlings are
afforded equal amounts of care, attention,
nurturing and concern, from vineyard to
crush to aging and then on to the bottle.
Consider a visit to this charming tasting
room with its fine wines, gracious wine
country hospitality, collection of art,
handsome décor and casual feel – a true
treat for all of the senses. To be able to sit,
sample their exceptional wines along with a
bit of food in such a setting, where you learn
in such a way that it feels as if you are
simply absorbing knowledge instead of just
being taught, is wonderful way to spend an
hour or so here in a small town that is a
beacon to wine lovers and gourmets from

“The genesis of BottleRock springs from the great live
entertainment gift that is the Uptown Theatre. The long awaited
downtown Napa renaissance has inspired us to bring an eclectic and
broad group of world class music and performers to our home town,”
said BottleRock Co-Founder Gabriel Meyers. “The Napa Valley has
set such a high standard for wine, food and hospitality that we feel
that the time is right to add an amazing music festival to the mix. It
will be great to see foodies, wine lovers and BottleRockers exploring
the Valley by day and then coming together in downtown Napa for
an evening of after parties. BRNV will be a different kind of music
festival by virtue of its location in the Valley and Downtown Napa.
Where else will you see winemakers, chefs and artists mingling with
patrons before, during and after the music? The chance to raise
money for all of our community and charitable partners is really
exciting and motivating as well.”

Memorable moments from wilderness regions, sacred sites and
diverse cultures all over the world captured by photographer Jeffrey
A. Davis is on display in Serenity, Wonder, and Spirit, a new exhibit at
the Fine Art Photography Gallery at Mumm Napa winery in
Rutherford. The exhibit runs through January 5, 2014.
From the awe and wonder of the Northern Lights to the quiet, raw
expression of the first rays of morning light touching down on a lone
iceberg, the images included in Serenity, Wonder and Spirit share
compelling stories and cherished moments from Davis’ travels to
Norway, Japan, Tibet, Iceland, Namibia, Tanzania, India, Myanmar and
the United States. “For me, travel is a passion and a gift. Photography
deepens my experience,” comments Davis. “At times, when I open and
invest myself, serendipity strikes – serenity, wonder and spirit are seen
and felt. These are some of the memories I wish to share.”
Exhibitions of Davis’ photographs have been presented at notable
US and Canadian institutions such as Stanford University, the MOAT
Gallery in Vancouver, Banff Mountain Centre for the Arts, San
Francisco City Hall and the Telluride Mountain Film Festival.
Mumm Napa is one of California’s top sparkling wine producers
and one of the most popular destinations for wine country visitors.
For more than 20 years, Mumm Napa sparkling wines have set the
standard for California méthode traditionelle sparkling wine,
emphasizing the exceptional qualities of Napa Valley fruit along with
the unique casual elegance of the Napa Valley lifestyle. The winery
and visitor center are located in Rutherford along the Silverado Trail in
the Napa Valley and are open daily for tours, tastings and private
events.
Ragin’ Cajun – Castello di Amorosa Brings
New Orleans-style Cajun to Napa Valley
TO OAKVILLE
Castello di Amorosa is kicking off the Napa Valley spring season with a Cajun flare
this year with the Ragin’ Cajun Party on April 20. This sizzling celebration begins at 7
p.m. and will “rage” on to 10:30 p.m., with live music, tarot readings, hot and spicy
Cajun foods, and featuring many of the Castle’s award-winning wines including
Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Grigio.
Castello di Amorosa is excited to be featuring live music performances by Gator
Beat, a high-energy Zydeco and New Orleans R&B band based out of Sonoma.
“We are absolutely thrilled to have such an incredibly talented group showcase
their Cajun style here at the Castello,” said President Georg Salzner. “We know they’ll
add just the right spice to the evening.”
Known as “The Band with a Beat that Bites,” this six-member group sizzles with the
sounds of Southern Louisiana, and will be keeping the Cajun beats going throughout
the evening in the castle’s acoustically-inspired
courtyard, where partygoers will be able to dance

world-class tasting experience with a festive atmosphere, all within
idyllic, picturesque Dry Creek Valley. Passport-holders will savor
exquisite food and wine pairings, and delight in discovering each
winery’s unique Passport “theme.” Past themes have included The

Mazzocco Winery is a special place – wine tasting can be intimidating for the
uninitiated, but this winery is one of those places where visitors from near and
far feel immediately at peace. Good vibes (and wine - more on that later)
abound there.
It is located in the middle of the rolling, vineyard-striped hills of the Dry
Creek Valley, just a short drive from the historic, wine-drenched hamlet of
Healdsburg. Just driving out to Mazzocco Winery provides the start to your
relaxation!
The building that houses the visitor’s center is a tall, rustic, barnlike
structure with lots of windows to let in the Sonoma County sunlight. The
landscaping surrounding the building is natural and minimal – vineyards are
the main focus around the winery – they stretch as far as the eye can see.
The picnic area at Mazzocco is one of the best in Sonoma County – several
umbrella-studded picnic tables dot the manicured lawn and comfortable
groupings of outdoor couches and chairs are carefully arranged around the
patio. There is a stage on the back patio which faces the picnic area, where
musicians (including this Wine Wench) perform for visitors during the Friday
night music series that Mazzocco and her sister wineries host during the
summer and fall.
The visitor’s center is thoughtfully laid out and expertly decorated; a wooden
u-shaped bar (which allows visitors plenty of room to taste the wines)
dominates the room, one wall is dedicated to displaying a tasteful selection of
Continued
non-wine items and cozy brown leather
couches invite visitors to relax and stay
a while. The overall atmosphere is one
of casual, rustic chic. Tasting is
complimentary (except for groups of
eight or more people – advance
reservations are required and there is a $10 per person tasting fee).
Mazzocco Winery’s wine club has many benefits, including the use
of their tastefully appointed guest cottage, generous discounts on
wines, and fun, members-only events.
The wines at Mazzocco consistently win medals and accolades
galore. I tasted a few during my visit and loved them all, but my
absolute favorites were the following wines:
2012 Gewürztraminer, $26: This wine is a vacation in a glass!
Mouthwatering aromas of exotic spices, fruits and flowers leap out of
the glass, luring the taster into a juicy, zesty mouthful of consistent
flavors. This is a dry Gewürztraminer, so it’s not at all sweet, but it is
absolutely delicious and extremely aromatic. I wanted to splash some
behind my ears!
2010 Reserve Zinfandel, “Pony” $36: If you like Zinfandel at all,
you simply MUST try this wine! It is Zinfandel unleashed, er,
unbridled. Seductive scents and flavors of blackberry (and sunwarmed blackberry brambles), mocha and peppery spice abound, all
wrapped up in a richly textured mouthfeel. Oh, yum!

Kendall-Jackson Redefines the Tasting Experience with Partake by K-J
the new Healdsburg destination promises innovative
exploration of wine and food at the table
Kendall-Jackson, one of America’s most beloved family-owned wineries, announced the
opening of Partake by K-J, located just steps from the square in Healdsburg, an iconic wine
country destination. Partake by K-J is an eatery and tasting lounge specializing in wine flights
and seasonal bites featuring ingredients from the winery’s organic gardens and Sonoma County’s
culinary artisans. Offering a range of curated food and wine experiences, as well as a la carte
options, the concept celebrates the region’s abundance of diversity and flavor, and time spent at
the table with family and friends.
“Partake by K-J offers innovative pairings inspired by the handcrafted wines of KendallJackson,” said Kendall-Jackson Executive Chef Justin Wangler. “Our wine-driven Bites & Flights
menu is a collaborative effort between our culinary team and winemakers to carefully match the
flavors, texture and weight of each dish with our wines. We hope to elevate expectations of what
a winery tasting experience can be.”
The name Partake invites guests to immerse themselves in the expertly crafted wine and food
experiences designed to satisfy the curious and thirsty. Organic vegetables, fruits and herbs from
the winery’s acclaimed gardens and orchards take center stage on the menu. The enticing
Sonoma County culinary focus includes estate-grown olive and grapeseed oils with breads made
from grapeskin flours as well as small plates of artisan cheeses, fresh produce from the garden
and sustainably-raised meats.
The sophisticated and inviting space spans two rooms with seating for 55
guests: The Flight Club offers guided wine and food flights, while the
Lounge has seasonal a la carte food and wine items that encourage guests to
pick and choose from the menu. Spring menu highlights include green garlic
Panna Cotta with Dungeness crab and Meyer lemon salad paired with
Kendall-Jackson Highland Estates Camelot Chardonnay and hand-cut fries
soaked in Cabernet Sauvignon paired with Kendall-Jackson Grand Reserve
Cabernet Sauvignon. A special emphasis on wine education, a hallmark of
the Kendall-Jackson experience, will provide classes and seminars on topics
ranging from how wine is made to selecting the right glass for a specific
wine.
“Partake will be a destination that reflects the Jackson family’s passion for
great wine and the culinary arts – it’s rooted in the family’s 30-year history of
calling Sonoma County home,” said Kendall-Jackson Winemaster Randy
Ullom. “Guests will discover the extraordinary affinity of K-J wines with food
in a welcoming place to sit down and relax, just as someone would at a
favorite restaurant.”
Partake by K-J is located at 241 Healdsburg Ave. in Healdsburg.
Hours are 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. May through October, and 11 a.m. to
8 p.m. November through April, seven days a week, excluding
major holidays. Reservations are suggested and can be made at
[email protected] or visit partakebykj.com.
Kendall-Jackson is one of America’s most beloved family-owned
and operated wineries. Founded by entrepreneur and visionary Jess
Jackson and his wife Barbara Banke, Kendall-Jackson is based in
Sonoma County and offers a range of acclaimed wines grown on the
family's estate vineyards along the coastal ridges of California. A
leader in sustainable vineyard and winery practices, including solar
cogeneration, water conservation and natural pest control, 100% of
Kendall-Jackson’s vineyards in California are SIP (Sustainability in
Practice) Certified and CCSW (Certified California Sustainable
Winegrowing) recognized. Learn more online at KJ.com, and

JCB by Jean-Charles Boisset
Collection is Opening New
aWine Tasting Experiences
JCB by Jean-Charles Boisset is expanding its collection of tasting
rooms to include locations in Santa Rosa, Sonoma, New York and
Irvine, CA. Each limited-production wine within the JCB portfolio
captures a unique balance of elegance and style, featuring a number
that is symbolic of key moments in Boisset’s life.
Until now, most of the wines could be experienced only through
the JCB Tasting Room in Healdsburg or by private appointment at the
JCB Lounge in St. Helena. On March 17, JCB moved its JCB Tasting
Room from Healdsburg to Santa Rosa, where it is undergoing a
dramatic evolution to reopen in this month as the JCB Winery.
Located within the barrel cellar on the DeLoach Vineyards estate, the
new JCB Winery will offer visitors with an appointment the
opportunity to enjoy the wines precisely where they are crafted, from
the vineyards where they are born to the barrels in which they are
aged. Guests can choose to discover the portfolio with a guided
tasting in the stunningly chic barrel room, featuring Bisazza
chandeliers, gilded flooring and a beautiful communal marble table.
The larger space will also allow for more in-depth experiences,
inviting guests to blend and bottle their own Pinot Noir from some of
Sonoma County’s most acclaimed vineyards, or embark on a sensual
journey of music and wine, exploring the subtle interplay of music,
emotion, sound and taste.
To complement the JCB Winery in Santa Rosa and JCB Lounge in
St. Helena, JCB by Jean-Charles Boisset will also open JCB Cellars in
Sonoma this spring, an appointment-only bubble lounge featuring a
selection of JCB’s Cremants de Bourgogne in the historic cellars of the
Buena Vista Winery. In addition, private JCB tasting lounges within
Gaggenau showrooms in New York, NY and Irvine, CA are due to
open in late summer/early fall 2013.

The Olive Press Purchased by Owners of
Cline Cellars & Jacuzzi Family Vineyards
The Olive Press, producer of award-winning California Extra
Virgin Olive Oil, has been purchased by long-time Sonoma Valley
business owners and residents, Fred and Nancy Cline. The Clines are
the founders and owners of Cline Cellars and Jacuzzi Family
Vineyards, both in the Carneros district of Sonoma Valley.
Ed Stolman, founder of the Olive Press, passed away on December
23, 2012. A visionary businessman and philanthropist, Stolman’s
death had a profound impact on the community of Sonoma Valley as
well as the olive mill and retail business he established in 1995. Fred
and Nancy Cline have purchased his interest in the business.
“We are extremely excited about honoring our friend, Ed Stolman,
and his legacy of quality and innovation. With Deborah Rogers
helping to guide us, we have every intention of nurturing this
wonderful business,” said Nancy Cline, who has assumed executive
management duties for the company.
Renowned olive oil blender and producer, Deborah Rogers, has
resigned her daily management responsibilities, but remains a partner
in the business and will be integral in consulting on the strategic
direction of the company.
The Olive Press remains dedicated to producing olive oil in its
facility in the Jacuzzi Family Vineyards winery building, where
60
California Extra Virgin Olive Oils are offered for tasting, along with a
variety of vinegars for unusual and creative pairings. The Olive Press
also runs an artisan and gourmet gift shop alongside its production
facility.

Matt Standing Joins Ledson Winemaking Team
Sonoma Valley’s Ledson Winery & Vineyards
has hired British winemaker Matt Standing to
round out what is becoming a powerful
international winemaking team. Matt joins:
• Steve Ledson, owner and head winemaker,

of Dominus, Rudd Estate and currently Ramey
Wine Cellars;

the coveted Winemaker of the Year at the

Competition, and

Steve Ledson enthused, “Since my Grandfather

century, bringing Matt on board seemed like a
perfect fit.” Standing worked the harvest of 2011
with Ramey before returning to the U.K. to
complete his studies earning an Honors Degree
in Viticulture and Enology at Plumpton College

The town of Sonoma offers visitors highly acclaimed wines,
culinary adventures and insights into the rich cultural heritage
that has led Sonoma to being one of the world’s premier wine
producing regions. Located just a short walk from the Historic
Sonoma Plaza is Sebastiani Vineyards and Winery, the only winery
in Sonoma to continue operations during Prohibition. This
historic winery began as a dream for Samuele Sebastiani who
emigrated from Tuscany in 1895 and started the winery nine years
later. In 2001, the tasting room and hospitality center underwent
a major renovation so guests could embrace the romantic Tuscan
character through the new cultural and historic programs offered.
In addition, the production facility was upgraded with a renewed
focus on small-lot artisan winemaking. Bill Foley, vintner and
entrepreneur, acquired the winery in 2008 and as part of Foley
Family Wines, Sebastiani is committed to crafting appellation
specific wines of Sonoma County.
Their grounds are lush with olive trees and outdoor tables are
set upon the cobblestone patio for you to enjoy a picnic with a
glass of your favorite Sebastiani wine. Wine tastings are $10-$20
for a flight of seven wines. They are currently pouring their new
release 2010 Old Vine Cabernet Sauvignon. This food friendly
wine features aromas of licorice and red fruits with great structure
and depth. The newly released 2011 Sonoma County
Chardonnay is an understated, balanced and refreshing wine that
is ideal for the warm season ahead. They are also pouring their
2010 Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon and 2011 Sonoma
Coast Pinot Noir. In May, the newest wine to be released will be
the 2012 Sonoma County Sauvignon Blanc.
Daily complimentary historical tours are presented at 11 a.m.,
1 and 3 p.m. and offer guests a chance to see first-hand the
winery’s history. Sebastiani Vineyards and Winery also offers indepth tours and tastings for guests that would like a more
intimate experience. They are also known for hosting some
exciting summer events. April 30th kicks off their Food Truck
Friday night and music event. Food Truck Friday’s are a locals’
favorite and occur on the last Friday of the month and continue
through September 27. Purchase a bottle of Sebastiani wine and
enjoy gourmet food from one of the mobile trucks. They also
host a summer concert series starting on Friday, May 28.
The tasting room is open daily from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. So,
whether you come for a wine tasting, or to stay for a picnic on
their lawn, there is always something to enjoy at Sebastiani
Vineyards and Winery. For more information or upcoming events,
visit their website at www.sebastiani.com.

Sonoma Plaza, a National Historic Landmark, is
originally home to the last of the chain of 21
California missions. Throughout its colorful
history – including the Bear Flag Revolt where the
California state flag was first raised in 1842 – the
small-town epicenter is now home to some 25
gourmet dining establishments, 40 boutique shops
and art galleries as well as 18 unique tasting
rooms. A well-known tourist destination, visitors
come to Sonoma to experience the idyllic Wine
Country lifestyle. Sure, doublewide tractors may
grace the two-lane Highway 12, wide-open
ranchlands blanket the valley between towns, and
wooly sheep keep weeds and grasses minimal in the
vineyards. But, no doubt, you will also find
countless award-winning wineries and world-class
restaurants in Sonoma. Sonoma is all about life,
about taste and enjoying each day.

Mendocino County’s ‘Where the Earth IS First’ Festival
Celebrates with Ten Days of Whales, Wine, Music, Food
Mendocino County is often called the “greenest” county in
California. And for good reason. Mendocino was the first county in
the US to ban genetically modified organisms, grows more organic
grapes than any other region in the world and has long been
recognized as a pioneer in the sustainable revolution. Ecologically
inspired travelers seek out Mendocino, and this year the county is
hosting its second-ever countywide “Where the Earth IS First”
Festival, where visitors can take part in a range of eco-friendly
activities. Special events planned in April make it easier for visitors to
enjoy the organic food and wine available and take advantage of
special lodging packages, all while communing with nature and
renewing their spirit. Centered around Earth Day (April 22), the
nine-day celebration – April 19-28 – highlights eco-friendly, earthconscious and sustainable living.
