of sparklers and toast with friends, family and to good times ahead in 2016. Wow,
2016!! The years are going so fast. Before you know it we will be celebrating 2020
and a New Years Eve celebration of celebrations. I always look forward to New Year’s
Eve because it gives us a chance to wipe the slate clean and get a fresh start on life.
Never has that been more true for myself and for our winery. We are embarking
on a total tasting room remodel. After 15 years we are updating our old facility to
accommodate your requests for; more bar space, more user friendly areas, and best
of all, an exclusive wine club room you are going to love to hang out in. We are
planning a bistro, deli downstairs, a reserve room and upstairs lounge where you can
get away from the crowd. No longer will we hear “weekends are fun, but it is just
too crowded.” Stay tuned and pardon our dust as we really get started with upgrades
in January. Don’t worry though, we will be open and have a great atmosphere to
experience and enjoy our quality of wines that our team is growing and making.
We strive for our wines and atmosphere to get better and better each and every
day. Thank you for your continued love and support of Wilson Creek. It’s you, our
raving fans, that continually challenge us on how we can raise the bar and provide a
better quality experience for everyone, every time.
Happy Holiday’s and Cheers To You!

Cellar notes ...
from the winemaker
Photos left to right: Rosie, Gerry , Mick and Deanna Wilson on top of the ship cruising the famous Rhine Gorge, drinking wine and watching over 40 castles amongst steep
Riesling vineyards. • Deanna Wilson on a hike overlooking an ancient city and old vineyards in Alsace France• Barrel room • Mick and Deanna with our winemaker, Gus and
his wife Toni in a 600 year old cellar in Alsace, France.
I was fortunate enough to wiggle in some vacation time at the
end of the 2015 harvest, being as small as it was. Even more fortunate to
be on the “Enchanted Rhine” river cruise with a number of Wilson
Creek wine club members. We were cruising down river and drinking
wine. “What do you think of this one?” was commonly asked of
me by our California wine drinking friends as they struggled to
understand the wines.
Winemaking style in Europe is quite different then that of
California, being more acid based and food driven, and less fruity
than the California style. As a result of this revelation or in some
cases confusion, I began comparing wine to pizza.
We are all very familiar with pizza, there is the New York style
having thin crust and the Chicago style with thick crust as well as
the California style with all types of unusual toppings. Pizza truly
reflects on the region of its inception for example: Hawaiian pizza
with ham and pineapple. Pizza reflects on the regions temperament,
ethnicity and favorite ingredients. We may have a style that we
prefer but we can also appreciate the other styles. As Americans we
look at pizza as a whole meal and feel that we own it. Yet pizza is
Italian, and it’s made and viewed quite differently there.
Wine is very much the same as pizza in this respect. In Europe,
wine is viewed a an integral part of the meal. It reflects on the
temperament, growing conditions, and viewpoint of the region.
The soil minerals, sunshine and the flavors come through in its
wine. As a result, the wines have pronounced acidity followed by
fruit. They tend to be lower in alcohol and thinner in body. These
wines truly shine with a nice lunch or dinner as the French and
Germans think it should.
The world of wine is as vast as the wine growing regions
themselves. Styles, flavors and approach to winemaking is a true
reflection of that uniqueness. Similar in respect to pizza with thick
crust or thin, tomato sauce of white, and the vast amounts of
toppings that are offered.
I found myself anxiously awaiting the next stop along the
Rhine to try its wines and order pizza with anchovies!

Vineyard Corner ...
Christmas Eve (Dec 23rd).
If the Julenissen eats and drinks it, it is an
indication of a good coming year.
Some of my scientist friends make fun of
my willingness to be so dedicated to mythological
ceremony, but I think they miss the intent and
hopeful result of mythology. The best scientists are
the most humble and they realize how little we
actually know about what makes nature work.
However, patterns do emerge and the more
observant we are to the patterns of nature the
more able we are to work in harmony with the
natural processes leading to good stewardship.
This is what tradition and mythology teach us,
be humble, observant, look and listen more than
you act and speak and use ceremony to align
whether it is with the ecology of a vineyard or
the social construct of your family.
This is why I chose to work at a craft
winery, a place where we strive to infuse holiday
magic into wine. We recognize the world is a
place of incomprehensible beauty and magic.
We honor that place through care and the gift of
craft.
We are grateful for all of you who share
this journey with us and hope your holidays are
full of meaning, magic and love.
~ All the best from the vineyards,
Greg, a.k.a Bio Man

The
vineyard is
inextricably
tied to the
cycles of
sun and
soil. As we enter this transitional time from the
shortest day of the year, the winter solstice, we
are truly in the time of change. Pre-solstice is
a time of preparation of the vines, feeding the
roots and planting nourishing and protective
cover crops in anticipation of a much needed El
Niño.
Likewise, as we prepare our family holiday
celebrations during this season we take time to
get together to build the roots that nourish and
secure our family relationships to bear fruit in
the spring or weather the storms of adversity.
The Wine Academy Holiday Wine and
Pairing Experience on Sunday, December 6th,
is not only an opportunity for you to be the
holiday dinner rockstar wine paring expert, but
to facilitate extraordinary sensory experiences
that bond and strengthen the connections of
friendship and family. My holiday traditions
focus on my Norwegian heritage with the
feeding of the wildlife with oats and leaving the
Christmas troll, the Julenissen, a little warm
porridge and a glass of Petite Sirah which I
bring to a secret spot in the vineyard every Little

Giving back to the community is a passion of ours
4 cups whipping cream
2/3 cup sugar
8 large egg yolks
1/4 cup dark rum
1 tablespoon brandy
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Large pinch of salt
1/3 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
Toy Drive
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Place 11x8-inch (8-cup capacity) shallow ceramic
baking dish in roasting pan. Mix cream and sugar
in medium saucepan. Bring to simmer, stirring until
sugar dissolves. Whisk yolks in medium bowl.
Gradually whisk in hot cream mixture, then rum,
brandy, nutmeg, and salt. Transfer to baking dish.
Pour enough hot water into roasting pan to come
halfway up sides of dish. Carefully transfer pan to
oven. Bake until custard is set around edges but
center still jiggles slightly when dish is gently shaken,
about 40 minutes. Remove ceramic dish from water. Chill custard on rack until cold, at least 3
hours. Preheat broiler. Press brown sugar through
strainer over custard to cover completely and
evenly. Watching closely, broil custard 4 to 6 inches
from heat source until sugar bubbles and caramelizes,
about 2 minutes. Alternatively, you may use a crème
brulee torch to caramelize the sugar.
