intelligence for the Wine conSUMer
by Len Napolitano
How do I conduct a wine tasting at home?
Wine-themed parties, or dinners, are a great way to explore new
wines while socializing with others who enjoy wines as much as
you do. While a wine tasting dinner should plan courses that pair
with specific wines, a basic wine tasting at home does not
necessarily have to include dinner. At a minimum, a few simple
items should be available to eat.
More important than whether or not a formal dinner is served is
deciding how to feature the wines. One popular approach is to
assign each guest, or couple, a specific type of wine to bring. For
example, ask one to bring a Santa Barbara Pinot Noir, and another a
Sonoma Chardonnay, or Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. The guests can
choose the specific producer and price level but you may want to
establish a price range for everyone to work within. As an option,
you could provide all the wines for the night. In either case, all
wines should be shared among all guests. Bottles should be placed
in full view on a main table for guests to pour for themselves. Hand
everyone a glass and remind them to take small samples so that the
wines get distributed as evenly as possible.
It's a good idea to create a theme for the tasting. It could be to
focus on white wines from a specific country or wine region, or red
wines from a particular vintage. It’s really up to you how narrow
you want the theme to be. For example, you could ask some guests
to bring a specific varietal from a specific region and other guests to
bring the same varietal wine from a neighboring region, or different
country. Your guests will enjoy getting their “assignments.”
Comparing the wines by tasting can be as entertaining as the stories
some will tell about their search for the wines.
Once deciding on a theme, plan some food to go with the wines.
If you’re uncertain about what to serve, or want to keep things
simple, just provide bread, crackers and a variety of cheeses or
meats. If you want to offer more than the just these basics, be
daring. Don’t be afraid to experiment with a broad range of small
dishes, hot and cold. With a nice selection of wines being brought
to the party, you’re bound to find a few great pairings with the food
among all the possible combinations. It’s especially rewarding when
someone has a wine and food epiphany at your party!
Another approach is to give a “blind” wine tasting party. A blind
tasting is when you or your guests don’t know in advance what
wines are being served. Here, guests arrive at the party with their
assigned bottles already inside bags that hide the entire bottle
except for the opening. Assign guests a number and have them
write it on the outside of the bag, easy for people to see. Once all
wines are on the table, the only information about the wine given to
guests is whether it is red or white (you can designate separate
white wine and red wine tables.) The varietal, brand or appellation
of the wine should remain unknown to everyone except the person
who brought it. Allow two hours for everyone to taste all the wines
and to give each wine a rating from 1 to 10 on a personal score card
that you create and provide in advance. Then, starting with wine
number one, take everyone’s scores and add them up for each wine
to determine the highest scoring wine of the night. You can also
vote for best white wine, best red wine and even worst wine of the
night. The most exciting moment comes when the bags are
removed and labels revealed. That’s when the discussion really gets
spirited!

VJB VINEYARD & CELLARS
BY MiKe hYlAnD
VJB VINEYARD & CELLARS
open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., coffee bar opesn at 7 a.m.
9077 Sonoma highway Kenwood, cA 95452
(707) 833-2300 \ www.vjbcellars.com

After years in the planning, as well as the execution, VJB Vineyard & Cellars have opened
their new hospitality complex that is sure to become an incredibly popular destination in the
Kenwood section of the Sonoma Valley. The brand new Tuscan-influenced complex includes
a daily tasting room, a deli and marketplace, an outdoor kitchen, a beautiful courtyard, as
well as a stand-alone barrel room to be utilized exclusively for wine club members, VIP’s and
select special events, and all of this makes you feel like you left the Sonoma Valley and
arrived in a small Italian village.
Tables and chairs, fountains, great wines and the aroma of food from the deli and outdoor
kitchen, plus a variety of coffees (the coffee bar opens at 7 a.m.) as well as the chocolate and
gelato bar, welcome visitors to VJB. “It will be very difficult for a guest to come in and just do
a tasting,” says Henry Belmonte, president of VJB Cellars. “I believe they will stay a while and
enjoy the surroundings, which is why this complex was designed. It is a unique space. The
courtyard is the heartbeat of the operation, where the blood flows!”
“First and foremost, our new facility was built for the community,” says Henry. “Our
neighbors are very important to us and we want them to all feel very welcome here. Our
philosophy is that we treat everyone, locals and tourists alike, like we want to be treated
ourselves. We don’t know any other way to conduct our business!”
And that philosophy carries over to the entire staff of tasting room hosts, the deli staff, the
chefs, the maintenance staff, everyone affiliated with VJB. “We are all about the total
experience and our new facility is all about providing our neighbors and guests with that
fabulous experience,” adds
Henry.
On the drawing board in one
form or another since 2004, the
“new” VJB Cellars is the
destination that both Henry and
his late older brother Vincent, for
whom the initials VJB originate,
had planned to develop. “We
decided early on that if we were
going to be a player, we needed a
destination like this,” says Henry.
The Belmonte family opened
the original VJB tasting room in
2003 utilizing the wines they
originally made for their
successful Caffe Portofino
restaurant that they opened in
Santa Rosa in 1987. Papa
Vittorio Belmonte had been
making wine for the family’s
personal use, and then began
serving the wine in the
restaurant. Production of the
wines continually increased from
some 50 cases in their first year
to 1,000 cases over the next
three years. Today, VJB produces
more than 5,000 cases each year,
all sold through the wine club or
the tasting room.
And, while the spanking new
facility will garner most of the
attention for some time, let’s not
overlook the most important
aspect of your visit to VJB – the
wines! The portfolio includes
2007 V Estate Cabernet
Sauvignon, 2008 El Dorado
Zinfandel, 2008 Estate Syrah,
2009 Mendocino Barbera, 2009
Sonoma Valley Primitivo, 2008
Rosso – a blend of Zinfandel,
Syrah, Petite Syrah and just a
touch of Sangio and Barbera.
“With our new venture, we
are hoping to be a benefit to the
entire Valley as well as an ally to
the other small vintners in the
area,” says Henry.

Every year, Matanzas Creek Winery attracts wine lovers, near
and far to experience the enchanting world of wine and lavender.
Their annual festival, Days of Wine and Lavender, takes place on
Saturday, June 30th from 12 to 4 p.m., encouraging guests to
unwind and relax in their luscious lavender gardens, sipping
distinctive award-winning wines, paired with bite-size culinary
delights.
Matanzas Creek is located off Bennett Valley Road in Santa
Rosa, nestled between three mountain peaks in stunning
Sonoma County. Guests are welcomed at the entryway with a
glass of wine, under beautiful olive branch trees. Stroll the long
walkway and feast your eyes on an eclectic blend of blooming
lavender gardens, exotic perennials, lush Chardonnay vineyards
and native grasses.
The Days of Wine and Lavender festival is all inclusive. For
$85 general admission and $70 for wine club members, you can
taste as many varietal wines as you want and pair them with
delicious foods while grooving to a five-piece band. Sit and look
out over beautiful Bennett Valley while drinking wine with
friends or engage in a culinary demo, smelling and sipping wines
with winemaker Marcia Monahan, who will guide you through
the various fruit components associated with Sauvignon Blanc.
The winery grounds are spacious with plenty of time to roam
the area. A trolley will take you around the estate, giving you an
educational experience on their balanced wines, fertile harvests
and lavender-infused estate honey.
The festival offers a number of tasting and pairing stations
throughout the property, where you can sample their reputable
2011 Sauvignon Blanc, Sonoma County, newly released 2011
Sauvignon Blanc, Helena Bench as well as their 2008
Chardonnay, Sonoma County. If you’re in the mood for a light
and fruity red wine, you will find friendly staff pouring 2006
Pinot Noir, Bennett Valley, 2009 Merlot, Bennett Valley, as well as
the 2007 Merlot, Bennett Valley.
Venture inside their rustic, yet elegant tasting room to
experience Matanzas full bodied, 2008 Journey Red, Sonoma
County or their 2008 Journey Chardonnay, Sonoma County with
aromas of orange blossoms and ripe melon.
There is much to do and see. The Lavender Barn will be
open, showcasing their Estate Lavender culinary, lotions, soaps
and massage oils. Many vendors will be on sight to tantalize your
taste buds by indulging in delicious desserts and local cheeses.
This is an event you won’t want to miss! You will be in awe, lost
in the enchantment and wonder of nature, fine wines, good
food, friends, lavender and laughter.

own right, Boisset’s French Bulldog.
The Winery
With more than 46 million dog owners in the U.S., Frenchie
wanted to ensure that his fellow canines would be well taken care
of when their people chose to visit Raymond Vineyards. Inside,
the winery includes five individual kennel spaces featuring
specially designed wine barrel dog beds. Above the beds, in the
“Gallery of Frenchie,” hang canvas portraits depicting Frenchie as
historical icons such as George Washington, Thomas Jefferson,
Julius Caesar and Marie Antoinette. Overhead, a gorgeous
“Barkarrat” chandelier lights up a very special dog friendly
tasting bar dispensing water for its guests. An outdoor play
area offers canines a special view of Frenchie’s
bioDOGnamic vineyard, planted to Bordeaux varieties.
The exciting new property also includes a small tasting
bar for humans where they can sample Frenchie Wines. A
doggie-cam will allow pet lovers to keep an eye on their
furry friends while visiting the Raymond Winery main
tasting room. Plans are underway for several dog-centric
events including mobile pet grooming, adopt-a-pet day and
more.
The Wines
Although he may not go down in history as one of the greatest
leaders of all time, Frenchie will definitely go down in history as the
world’s greatest four-legged winemaker. Each wine features a special
label depicting Frenchie as an historical figure, inspired by the
paintings of artist Carol Lew (www.carollew.com). Just released are:
2009 Frenchie Napoleon Red Blend ($30) – Aromas and flavors
of black and red fruit with hints of cassis and subtle oak are
unleashed in each glass of this special blend of Cabernet
Sauvignon, Syrah, Sangiovese, Zinfandel, Merlot and
Cabernet Franc.
2009 Frenchie Louis XIV Cabernet Sauvignon ($30) – A
blend of 61 percent Sonoma County and 39 percent Napa
County fruit, this wine has fetching aromas and flavors of
blackberries and cocoa with hints of cassis and subtle notes
of vanilla.
Additional wines are planned for launch in the future
including a white wine blend, Frenchie Marie Antoinette. For
a limited time, a special two-bottle wine duo including three
Frenchie-branded tennis balls is available for purchase
exclusively on wine.com for $49.99. All Frenchie wines are
available for purchase at FrenchieWinery.com or at the
Frenchie Winery at Raymond Vineyards.
Join the Frenchie Winery Community
“We are moving into the forefront of pet parenting in the digital
age and connecting with our wine consumers via social and mobile
marketing,” said Boisset. “Frenchie will be unleashing the story and
inspiration behind his wines through a series of short videos on
FrenchieWinery.com. He will be revealing the life of a rock star dog
winemaker and building a community of Frenchie fans on Facebook
and Dogbook while seeking out other like-minded friends to share
their photos, videos and more.”
Frenchie Winery is located at Raymond Vineyard, 849 Zinfandel
Lane, St. Helena, CA; open daily from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more

WINEMAKER PROFILE: PRAGER WINERY & PORT WORKS
PETER PRAGER
Making Wines Few Winemakers Dare Attempt
BY JoSh Stein
PRAGER WINERY & PORT WORKS
open by appointment only, daily from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Phil M.
Visited the Prager Winery today. Came all the way from
Pennsylvania. All the wines we tasted were outstanding and our
host was extremely gracious. We’ll definitely be back.
28
Imagine being a teenager and being told your father’s “midlife crisis” was relocating the
family from Orange County to the Napa Valley, where through perseverance and effort by
the whole family, the creation of some of the finest New World ports was the result?
Sounds like the makings of a movie, right? Well, actually, welcome to just the start of the
story that is Peter Prager’s thirty-five years in the wine business. Napa is world-known for
its winemakers’ dry wines; however, almost no one has turned those techniques to
producing the same kind of range of sweet wines – except for Jim and now Peter Prager,
that is, who have used that same fine winemakers’ eye for detail but applied in a different
fashion, honoring the tradition of long-lived, long-aging, always-representative-of-thevintage port wines. And not just with one or two. How about six, ranging from dry to
off-dry to sweet, displaying the ability of port wines to pair with a wide range of cuisines.
Jim Prager’s first crush took place in an 1865-built carriage house on their property in
south St. Helena. Their first releases were Cabernet, Chardonnay, Zinfandel, and the
Noble Companion Cabernet Port – all 120 cases of it – in 1979. To this day, everyone at
the winery is a Prager by birth or marriage, and while Generation One is now
comfortably retired, Generations Two run all aspects with Three – all twenty-two of
them – quickly growing in the wings. The General Manager is brother Jeff; brother John
manages the tasting room and the winery’s distribution. Sister Mary coordinates the wine
club, and her husband, Richard, is Cellar Master. Sister Katie is CFO, and brother Peter
is winemaker.
Peter himself went to Frenso State for his degree in enology, finishing just as Jim was
stepping back from his responsibilities in 1995. Peter makes a range of wines beyond the
norm, not just for Napa wine but for North American wine. Now available are three table
wines and six ports, presenting the full array of what’s possible with this winemaking
philosophy, though each is no more than about eight hundred cases of production. The
long-aging Royal Escort Port (and the only released in special years Royal Escort Vintage
Port) is made from Petite Sirah, and the Noble Companion Tawny Port, aged for more
than a decade in oak, is ready for drinking right away. The Tomas Port is made from the
Portuguese varietals Tinto Cao, Touriga and Tinta Roriz, which are almost never seen in
California. Going even further into rare production territory, the Aria White Port is made
from Chardonnay, and the Alyssa Golden Dry Port – you read that right – is made from
the white Verdelho grape. The still wines are equally out of the ordinary: Petite Sirah and
two late-harvest Rieslings, the fruity and crisp “Sweet Claire” and the lightly fortified
“Madeline.”
As I’m sure you can tell, the Prager wines are unlike anything in the Valley, and the
Prager tasting experience is beyond the norm, too. I don’t want to give everything away,
but several totally unique tasting room displays await visitors, as does explanation of the
fortification process and how and why the Pragers produce “the least sweet ports in
California.” Believe it or not, it’s possible to produce dry and off-dry ports, but you have
to visit the winery to find out the secrets of this process from the makers themselves. I
will say this: bring a bill or two of local currency with you; it will add to the ambiance
and the experience of talking to the family about their wines. Do yourself a favor and
“step off the beaten path” just south of St. Helena – you’ll be glad you did. Enjoy!

Wine Tasting in
SUISUN VALLEY
Visit Vezér Family Vineyards
The Napa Back Road
Vezér Family Vineyards is one of the more picturesque and
inviting of the Suisun Valley wine region. Owned by the famously
friendly and welcoming Frank and Liz Vezér, the winery is a
refreshing break from the hustle and bustle of their more well-known
neighbors over the hill. With a climate that boasts of sun-drenched
days and sweet foggy nights, the grapes of the Vezér Family Vineyards
enjoy near perfect growing conditions. Their winery is best known
for the luscious Petite Sirah that they produce, as well as their hearty,
fruit-forward Zinfandel and a little known, but magnificent blend, La
Salette. While lacking the big name appellation, these wines are by
no means also-rans. In fact, the region is rated as the oldest and best
in the State of California by the U.C Davis University. These are
seriously good wines.
The Vezér Family Vineyard tasting room is located in the tiny
village of Mankas Corners. The town was originally established by a
local miner in 1846. Hints of its old west history can be seen in the
old general store and surrounding buildings. The tasting room is
open seven days a week and no appointment is necessary. The ten
dollar tasting fee is waived with a wine purchase. But, to really get the
most out of your visit, opt for their VIP Barrel Blend Tour. At a bargain
price of $35, this tour is well worth the extra investment.

Judd’s Hill Winery is right off the Silverado Trail, a short
drive from downtown Napa. The winding drive in is
breathtaking as you pass the vineyards. It is a family and
dog friendly tasting room that is relaxing, fun, hip and
cool. So whether you are a serious wine connoisseur, or
just looking to do some wine tasting, Judd’s Hill is a perfect
winery to visit.
Their indoor tasting room is comfortable and intimate.
There is a large table for guests to taste their current
releases along with a selection of limited edition wines only
available at the winery or through their wine club. It’s
clean, modern and contemporary with lots of natural light,
but small enough to enjoy a very private seated tasting.
Artwork created by winery founder Art Finkelstein lines
the walls and makes it feel very casual. As the season heats
up, there are two patio areas for tastings which are set
apart and shaded so you can take in their scenic grounds.
Judd’s Hill is owned and operated by two generations of
the Finkelstein family. While his parents Art and Bunnie
founded the winery, Judd, along with his wife, Holly, are
still dedicated to making premium handcrafted wines.
Guests really feel the connection to a family run operation.
Most days you can find Judd in the bottle blending camps
or tasting rooms. Taking an intimate and personal
approach to winemaking, they limit their annual
production to less than 3,000 cases. Being a wine club
member here has its advantages. Members enjoy their
exclusive small lot wines and great release parties and
other seasonal events. Check out their website for a list of
their latest events at www.juddshill.com.
If you are looking for a wine adventure, then sign up for
their Bottle Blending Day Camp. There are several options
available depending on how many finished bottles you
would like to create. Guests will work with a Blending
Guide to blend their perfect Bordeaux-style wine from four
barrel samples (two Cabernet Sauvignons, one Merlot and
one Cabernet Franc). Once you have decided on a final
blend, you will get to hand bottle, cork and label your
bottles. Your personally blended wine will be sent home
with you the same day!
So whether you come to Judd’s Hill for a personal wine
tasting or to enjoy one of their great events, you will enjoy
spending an afternoon here sipping exceptional wine from
a family run winery.

Rombauer Vineyards is one of those wineries – everyone knows, if it says
Rombauer on a bottle, you can be guaranteed high quality, soulful wines to go with
food, bringing enjoyment to all who partake. The Rombauer philosophy is the “Joy of
Wine” – crafting releases meant to pair with meals, echoing great-Aunt Irma
Rombauer’s belief that the joy of life is the pursuit of what is best to taste and enjoy.
Now at year thirty-two, and known for decades as a Napa Valley “must visit,” it’s clear
to see – and taste – that they’ve found a winning formula. How? By keeping the
emphasis on what matters: drinkable wines and an enjoyable experience – the food
and the people matter most, not the attitude!
The winery itself is on the north end of the Silverado Trail, giving a fun drive and
showing off glorious views and uncrowded experiences on the “road less travelled.”
The hilltop winery and tasting room, looking out over the heritage Zindandel
vineyard visitors drive through along the way, are built over more than a mile’s worth
of caves dug into the hillside. Picnic tables and a trellised gazebo confirm what
matters most: relaxed enjoyment. Tastings are available daily at three separate tasting
bars in the tasting room, as is the self-guided garden stroll through the more than one
hundred plant and flower species, and the views of the Mayacamas are photo-worthy,
for sure. Two different flights, current releases and proprietary, winery-only releases
await.
The wines are just as much a standout as the views, and fitting in with their m.o.,
the Rombauers really have thought through the logistics of pairing wine and food, not
just in terms of varietals but also in offering multiple bottle sizes, ranging from 375
millimeter half-bottles, to the standard 750 bottle we all know so well, to 1.5-liter
magums and even larger formats for occasions requiring something extra special.
What awaits is their Carneros Chardonnay, Merlot, Zinfandels, vineyard-select
Cabernets and Le Meilleur du Chai – “the best of the cellar.” There are also two terrific
sweets, a Zinfandel Port and the Late Harvest Chardonnay known simply and
unsurprisingly as Joy.
Visitors in search of the “real” Napa experience need look no further. There’s a
reason the name Rombauer brings such great associations; come taste for yourself and
find out why – you’ll be glad you did. Enjoy!
‘Sip and Supper’ Wine Education on The Napa Wine Train
Winemaker-led tasting followed by gourmet meal on-board
Dinner on the Napa Wine Train just got a little more informative.

intimacies of Napa Valley’s most famous product. Each winemaker will
feature his or her amazing wines while sharing passions and personal
philosophies.
At the completion of the tasting, move to a 1915-1917 Pullman
dining car for a multiple course gourmet meal cooked to perfection in
the Wine Train’s specially designed kitchen car. Choose from an
amazing menu of fresh and locally sourced food.
Napa Valley adventurers who want to continue wine tasting into the
evening hours, now have the ability to enjoy an intimate “Sip and
Supper,” and leave the driving to the Wine Train. All aboard!
There are only five “Sip and Supper” wine tasting and gourmet meal
packages planed: June 14, July 12, August 16, September 13 and
October 11. Dinner trains depart and 6:30 p.m. and return at 9:30
p.m. Tickets are only $129 per
person.
The Napa Valley Wine Train is
one of the most unique and best
Napa restaurants. This top dining
establishment is housed in an
antique train that runs on 25-miles
of track in the heart of the Napa
Valley. It offers guests great
regional food and fabulous, hardto-find wines. Enjoy winery tours,
wine tasting on board, and
celebrity winemaker dinners: A
great place to celebrate your
special moments, or just to enjoy
everyday life. For more information, call 1-800-427-4124 or go to

NAPA VALLEY | WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK
Charles Krug Winery Announces ‘Gas Up’ Summer Rebate
Summer gas rebate will provide relief to wine tasters
High price of gas got you down? The folks in the Charles KrugPeter Mondavi Family Winery tasting room feel the pain, too, and
have devised a way to help this summer. Beginning immediately, they
will offset the cost of the gas spent to visit the winery in St. Helena
with a rebate against tasting fees.
In the Peter Mondavi Sr. family, excellence is a family tradition and
their Charles Krug wines have represented honest value for nearly 70
years. Co-proprietor Peter Mondavi Jr. related, “My brother, Marc, and
Second Annual Father’s Day Picnic
Join Charles Krug on Sunday, June 17th for the second
annual Father’s Day Picnic from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Come and
enjoy a fabulous lunch at the picnic grounds between the
Tasting Room and the Redwood Cellar. Select from either
Grilled Marinated Tri-tip or mouth-watering Chipotle Glazed
Chicken accompanied by tantalizing side dishes. Wine will, of
course, be available for purchase to accompany your picnic. For
his special day, each Dad will receive a Charles Krug T-shirt. A
cool Corvette show will also take place in front of the Redwood
Cellar as well – a must see! Adult tickets are $25. Children
twelve and under; hot dogs, choice of soda and sides – tickets
are $5, limited seating – first come, first served. For groups of
six or more, please call ahead, 1-888-747-2229.
I know our customers sometimes travel quite a ways to visit Charles
Krug, and we were lamenting about how the price of gas has gone up
so much. So we came up with this idea to give visitors to our winery
a break.”
During the “Gas Up” rebate promotion the farther visitors travel to
visit Charles Krug, the larger the rebate to offset what was spent to get
there. A vehicle that comes from 10-24 miles away, for example,
would receive a $5 rebate, from 25-49 miles, $10, and a vehicle traveling more than 50 miles would receive a $15 rebate. The promotion
runs now through September 30, or until the average price of gas falls
below $4 per gallon in the San Francisco Bay Area, whichever comes
first. There is one rebate per vehicle, and AAA’s Daily Fuel Gauge
Report for California will be used to confirm average gas prices.
“We think Charles Krug would support this kind of incentive,”
continued Peter Mondavi Jr., whose family has owned Charles Krug
Winery since 1943. “He was an
extremely hard worker and not
ST. HELENA
immune to financial difficulties
himself.”
To join in the fun, first visit
www.charleskrug.com and print
the “Gas Up” rebate, then present
the rebate at the Charles Krug
Winery tasting room. The rebate
will be applied to a tasting fee.

ZD WINES Zero Defects, Guaranteed!
BY JoSh Stein
ZD WINES
open daily 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. | tours are by appointment
8383 Silverado trail in rutherford
1-800-487-7757 | www.zdwines.com | facebook and twitter

Long before Napa was world famous, wine country had its intrinsic
appeals: a slow pace of gradual movement, an appreciation for the Valley’s
environs, working with and not against nature. That feeling of
connectedness is what ZD’s tasting room and various tasting experiences are
designed to let you feel for yourself.
ZD stands not only for its founders’ initials but also for “Zero Defects,”
which aptly describes not just the wines but the time spent at this perfect
place in the heart of the Silverado Trail. Norman deLeuze, and partner, Gino
Zepponi – the “ZD” in ZD Wines – were two aerospace engineers with a love
of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay who received the first new Sonoma County
permit in decades when they fell in love with Carneros in the 1970s. This
new winery permit allowed the multiple-generation family winery to thrive
this long because they know how to take the best the Valley gives them and
put it into the bottle for others to enjoy, as is evinced by the wall of awards
tucked discreetly to the side in the tasting room.
ZD are producers of more-than-excellent Cabernet, Chardonnay and
Pinot Noir – plus some very special winery-only bottlings, known as the
Rosa Lee “Whims,” including, at various times, releases of Barbera, Malbec,
Muscat Canelli, Mourvèdre, Petit Sirah, Pinot Grigio, Riesling and Viognier –
the newest is a delicious and not-to-be-missed Grenache Rosé. In 1992, ZD
introduced Abacus – a solera-style multi-vintage blend of every ZD Reserve
Cabernet Sauvignon ever produced, which is held in the barrel until
bottling. Every year since, a limited amount is bottled and that year’s new
vintage Reserve Cabernet is added back to the barrels.
ZD Wines offers special tours and tastings by appointment only. Weatherpermitting, the Eco Tour provides the opportunity for conversation about
the ZD estate and its practices. As you walk the perimeter of the property,
you are exposed to all the various ways in which ZD and its people act as
conservators: organic farming, cover crops, insectiaries, owl boxes,
composting and vermicomposting, use of biodiesel for all equipment, hybrid
vehicles for everyone, solar panels, waste reduction, water recycling and
high efficiency use, four-stage chilling to match power to task at hand, and
on and on. The winery even pays employees a daily incentive to carpool!
Equally, the Private Group Tasting provides a relaxed experience where
groups of eight or more people can enjoy a private tasting of ZD’s classic
wines in the cellar, and the Cellar Tour and Tasting allows visitors to enjoy
several current vintage and reserve wines with a private guided tour through
the cellar and a sampling of wine maturing in the barrel. Most enjoyably, the
Vineyard View Tasting provides a selection of current, reserve and library
wines in crystal stemware in the eponymous room with its west-Valley-facing
floor-to-ceiling windowed space and exterior deck above the crushpad at the
top of the winery. From there, you can see almost all of the property as you
enjoy the wines complemented by artisan cheeses and finished with a
decadent chocolate truffle.
Last but not least, like many others, ZD has a wine club, called First
Taste, but unlike other clubs, you select what, when, and how much you’d
like sent. That guarantees the club members don’t just feel special at the
winery and makes sure there are zero defects in every shipment. And that
really sums up the ZD Wines experience: everything has been tastefully and
thoughtfully been considered ahead of time, guaranteeing your time is
enjoyably well spent. Cheers!

Welcome to
CALISTOGA
Old Faithful Geyser of California – A Natural Phenomena
BY Michelle J. BAKer
For all of Napa Valley’s world-renown as a wine-tasting destination,
did you know that the valley also has one of only three “Old Faithful”
geysers in the world?
Located at the north end of the valley in Calistoga, Old Faithful
makes for a fun and fascinating afternoon stop between wineries.
About every 30 minutes, visitors to “the geysers” are treated to a firstrate show – an eruption of steam and extremely hot water spraying 60
to 100 feet in the air.
The term “Old Faithful” refers to geysers that erupt on regular intervals. Water for the Old Faithful Geyser of California comes from an
underground river. When this water flows over the hot molten magma
deep in the earth, it boils, expands and then collects in large cavities.
Under tremendous pressure from the heat, the superheated water is
forced through the fractures and erupts with an outpouring of steam
followed by hot spewing water.
Old Faithful is surrounded by
palm trees and thick bamboo,
making for a relaxing and partially
shaded setting. There are picnic
tables with umbrellas and a
covered seating area, all with
excellent views of the geyser. The
gift shop is stocked with snacks
such as ice cream bars, chips and
a variety of drinks, or if you want
to make it a lunch stop, bring in a
picnic lunch from town and a
bottle of wine from one of the
nearby wineries!
Don’t miss some of the other
interesting features at Old
Faithful. Check out the wishing
44
wells that were once used as hot mineral therapy pools. There’s also an
informative exhibit area on geyser eruptions and earthquake predictions, as well as a brief history of the town of Calistoga. And best of all,
there’s a petting zoo with Tennessee Fainting Goats, Jacob’s Four Horn
Sheep and Guard Llamas.
Old Faithful Geyser of California is located at 1299 Tubbs Lane in
Calistoga. The gift shop is a great place to find unique Old Faithful
and Napa Valley themed souvenirs, including mugs, shot and wine
glasses, postcards, T- shirts and sweatshirts in adult and child sizes,
hats and visors, keychains, water bottles, pens and much more.
Old Faithful is open daily year round from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the
winter and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. in the summer. Admission is $10 for
adults, $7 for seniors, $3 for kids ages six to 12 and children under age
six are free.

TASTING ROOM OF THE WEEK
SODA ROCK WINERY
BY SUe StrAight, the Wine Wench
SODA ROCK WINERY
8015 highway 128, just outside of healdsburg
open daily for tasting from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
www.sodarockwinery.com | (707) 433-3303
52
One of Alexander Valley’s newest, yet oldest wineries awaits
you. Let me explain – Soda Rock Winery was originally
constructed back in 1869, the Alamo-like stone façade was added
in 1943, but the new-and-improved Soda Rock Winery made its
debut in December of 2011.
This wonderful place is an eclectic blend of old-meets-new.
The main building that houses the tasting bar and lounge oozes
history – the rough-hewn stone façade (featured front and center)
outside of the building is your first clue. Once inside the large,
airy tasting room and lounge, with its exposed brick walls and
redwood beams, you almost expect to hear the chink-chink of
spurs as cowboys and farmers mosey up to the long antique bar
for a drink.
The contemporary touches in and around the tasting bar and
lounge include stained cement floors all throughout the structures
and sleek, modern-looking buildings that house the winery and
event facility. There are large pieces of art displayed around the
tasting bar and a cozy sectional takes up one corner of the room.
There are tables and chairs scattered about the room and stools
are lined along the bar. You’ll want to relax and stay a while.
Looking to host a wedding, private party or corporate event?
Soda Rock Winery should definitely be on your list of venues to
check out! In addition to having have a licensed wedding
coordinator on staff, their large event facility accommodates up to
250 people and the smaller, more intimate Vineyard Room can
accommodate up to 50 people. The beautifully landscaped picnic
area and surrounding grounds are also available for private events.
For visitors who would like to prolong their Soda Rock
experience, there are four luxuriously appointed guest suites on
site as well.
The main focus in the tasting bar and lounge is the wine.
There are a few t-shirts and other chatchkes available, but you’ll
want to sit down, take some deep sniffs and sips and thoroughly
experience the wines – they are really good! I tasted a few wines
during my visit and enjoyed them all. My favorites were the
following:
2009 Reserve Chardonnay, ($36) – I am usually a card-carrying
member of the ABC (Anything But Chardonnay) club, but this
classic beauty totally swayed my opinion! Mouthwatering aromas
of buttered toast, vanilla and citrus delight the nose and continue
as flavors in the richly textured, juicy mouthfeel.
2006 Cabernet Sauvignon “The General” ($50) – Wow!
What a gorgeous Cab! Black cherry, cassis, orange peel and spice
box aromas lure the taster into a luscious mouthful of consistent
flavors, which linger through the long, delicious finish.

Gloria Ferrer, WillMar Partnership Invests in Kids’ Future
Artist Series Pinot Noir Barrel Tasting,
Original Posters and Bluebird Boxes Raise Funds
children living with a family member who has a life-changing
illness.
For almost a decade, Gloria Ferrer Caves & Vineyards has
partnered with Sonoma Valley’s WillMar Family Grief & Healing
Center to raise funds for bereaved children while promoting
sustainable agriculture. This year, in addition to the annual sales of
the bluebird boxes constructed by the Gloria Ferrer vineyard crew
and painted by the WillMar children, futures will be sold of the
special vintage Gloria Ferrer 2011 WillMar Artist Series Pinot Noir
at a Barrel Tasting and Vineyard Tour on Saturday, June 23rd, 1:30
to 4:30 p.m. Tickets are scarce so call or register online to purchase
tickets in advance.
This special event will include a tour in Gloria Ferrer’s private
barrel cave with Winemaker Steve Urberg including an exclusive
“futures” barrel tasting of the WillMar Pinot Noir, complemented
by a walk in the vineyard with Vineyard Manager Mike Crumly.
Wine and hors d’oeuvres will be provided. This limited-production
wine will be sold at a special case price one time only. Ticket cost is
$25 and all wine and ticket sale proceeds go to the WillMar Center.
With only 100 cases to be bottled, this exclusive, handcrafted
Pinot Noir yields from carefully tended estate Carneros Vineyards.
Family, friends and community are invited to pre-taste this estate
wine and purchase futures to be released in 2014. Original art will
grace the bottles with label artwork designed by young, talented
WillMar artists. Posters of the artworks are available for sale in the
tasting room.
Gloria Ferrer Caves & Vineyards

Vineyards as the first sparkling wine house in California’s Carneros

Nurturing Hope One Nest at a Time
The one-of-a-kind hand-painted bluebird boxes are also
available in the Gloria Ferrer Tasting Room for $40 each, with
100% of the sales and/or additional donations going to the
WillMar Center. “When the children paint the nest boxes, they feel
they are building a safe home for the baby birds,” says Barbara
Cullen, program director at WillMar. “This type of therapeutic
work is what our program is all about – helping to create a safe,
loving home for grieving children.”
WillMar became part of the Gloria Ferrer family many years
ago, when children of one of their vineyard workers benefited from
the loving support of this unique, nurturing community
organization. The power and importance of the work being done at
WillMar has left a lasting impression.
WillMar Family Grief & Healing Center
WillMar Family Grief & Healing Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization designed to serve children and teenagers who
have experienced the death of a loved one from illness, accident,
suicide or homicide. As an important component of its program,
WillMar facilitates art projects to encourage healthy selfexpression, as well as personal healing. WillMar’s support services

Wine Tasting in
LIVERMORE VALLEY Wine Country
McGrail Vineyards and Winery
BY KiMBerlY horg-WeBB
Wine enthusiasts can admire the breathtaking views of a 16-acre Cabernet vineyard
sprawled along Greenville Road, perfectly
situated on top of a hill in Livermore.
McGrail Vineyards and Winery specializes
in 100-percent, estate-grown Cabernet
Sauvignon.
McGrail won the Sweepstakes Red Wine
Award from the San Francisco Chronicle
Wine Competition this year for its flagship
wine, the 2008 McGrail Vineyards Cabernet
Sauvignon Reserve.
“We farm it to the highest degree for
quality. We drop fruit several times
throughout the year and we strive for the
best fruit possible,” said Heather McGrail,
McGrail Vineyards and Winery President.
The winery ages its wine for 30 months
in oak barrels. The extra time in the barrel
helps integrate the flavors. They also taste
each and every barrel before finalizing its
blend which ensures top quality.
Jim and Ginger McGrail opened McGrail
Vineyards and Winery in 2008 with the help
of their daughter, Heather McGrail. The
McGrails have been growing grapes for the
last 12 years for the Steven Kent Winery. In
2009, they hired Mark Clarin as winemaker
and the rest is history.
“We use the time honored method of
producing wine; start with good grapes and
don’t mess it up,” Heather McGrail
said. “Our winery is all about fun, family
and friends.”
According to her, the Petite Sirah and
LIVERMORE VALLEY
W I N E R I E S

Chardonnay are other popular selections.
The Chardonnay is a California style
Chardonnay with fruit notes, oak and butter.
The Petite Sirah is grown from the fruit of a
family friend and neighbor, Julio
Covarrubias. It has blueberry notes, dark
fruit and dry tannins.
Two wines were released this year, a dry
Cabernet Sauvignon Rosé and a 2009
Reserve Cabernet that will be released in
July.
When the tasting room originally opened
they poured only one wine, the 2005
Reserve Cabernet, the same “recipe” but
different vintage. Each year, they work at
improving this wine while keeping it
consistent with previous vintages.
“It’s exciting that three vintages later we
have successfully created a wine that
receives such high honors,” Heather McGrail
said.
She says besides sampling the award
winning wines, guests always have the
opportunity to meet someone from the
family at the winery on any certain day.
The tasting room is open Friday through
Monday and by appointment Tuesday
through Thursday. They offer private
vineyard tours as well as private tastings for
groups or events. For more information,
call (925) 215-0717 or visit the website at

Livermore Valley Winery’s Drought Resistant Garden Trail
Livermore Valley Winegrowers Association celebrated the
opening of the Drought Resistant Garden Trail with a sign installation and toast at Rodrigue Molyneaux Winery on April 12. Developed in cooperation with the Alameda County Master Gardeners,
the initial phase of the new trail includes the first of many local
winery and event center gardens to feature native, drought resistant
plantings. Trail maps will soon be available at www.LVwine.org and
at each of the following garden trail locations in Livermore Valley:
• Cedar Mountain Winery (7000 Tesla Road): A wide perennial
garden flanks both sides of the barrel room. The garden is filled
with roses; especially captivating is the climbing rose Altissimo.
Hardy penstemon and sages also fill the beds.
• Concannon Vineyard (4590 Tesla Road): Playful topiary is the
obvious theme of these gardens, where even mature fruitless
Mulberry trees are trained into arches and orbs. Drought resistant
New Zealand flaxes, purple hopseed and daylilies are scattered
among the olive trees. Concannon was one of the first wineries in
Livermore Valley to use roses as detectors of molds and mildew in
the vineyard.
• Las Positas Vineyards (1828 Wetmore Road): Many drought
resistant grasses, including California fescue and Mexican feather
grass are planted in this extensive landscape that also features
Teucrium chamaedrtys (germander).
• Rodrigue Molyneaux Winery (3053 Marina Avenue): Avid
gardener and winery owner Nancy Rodrigue is challenged by lack
of sun in her landscape that features many garden “rooms.” With
the advice of master gardeners, she has replaced ground covers
with ceanothus and native deer grass. A border that runs along an
outdoor seating area has been replanted with honey bush
mahonia and various colored leafed heuchera that add color.
• Wente Vineyards Estate Winery (5565 Tesla Road): A former
parking lot is now planted with hardy trees, shrubs and perennials that welcome guests to picnic. Outside the winery, white
oleander and olive trees under planted with rosemary, lavender
and agastache repeat in drifts along Tesla Road. Coffeeberry and
heleanthemum are highlights of a corner garden in this lush space
that features native and drought resistant plants.
• Martinelli Event Center (3575 Greenville Road): The property
was given to the Master Gardener Program by the county in 2000
now blooms as an example of beautiful landscaping in a dry
summer garden. The University of California Alameda County
Master Gardeners Livermore Demonstration Garden is divided
into six areas: an oak garden, a flower garden, a dry creek bed
garden, a garden that attracts hummingbirds and butterflies, a
wind garden and example of gardening on a berm.
Several other Livermore Valley wineries are actively working with
the Master Gardener Shari Wentz to design and plant drought resistant
gardens that will be included in future phases of the wine country trail.
“Although the program is still in the beginning stages, the Livermore Valley Winegrowers Association and Alameda County Master
Gardeners are excited about this cooperative effort and its potential,” said Wentz.
All of the gardens on the Drought Resistant Garden Trail are
open to the public and the Master Gardeners Livermore Demonstration Garden hosts monthly classes. The Master Gardener
program is part of Cooperative Extension, the outreach arm of the
University of California through its Division of Agriculture and
Natural Resources. Master Gardeners are trained volunteers who
provide residents of Alameda County with information to help
them garden in schools, backyards, nursing homes and other locations. Visit acmg.ucdavis.edu/Demonstration_Gardens/ for more
information.

The Livermore Valley Winegrowers Association is a 501(c)6
organization that supports the wineries, growers, and members in

WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK | SANTA CLARA/SANTA CRUZ/MONTEREY COUNTIES
June In Bloom on the Summit to Sea Wine Trail
BY lAUrA neSS
June is the time for
weddings and graduations,
and it’s Father’s Day, too! Time
to bring out the big Bordeaux
in honor of the occasion. May
we suggest two wines that are
tailor-made for gift giving this
time of year: the Burrell
School “Dean’s List” Cabernet
Sauvignon and the “Honor
Roll” Merlot. If you want to
laud a special graduate, how
about a bottle or two of the
boldly built, always in style,
“Valedictorian?” There’s always
the “Extra Credit” Cabernet Franc for someone who puts extra effort
into everything they do: your Dad, perhaps?
Poetic Cellars has Father’s Day labels for that special Dad, and you
can also create a custom label for that graduate who deserves some
extra recognition. Dads everywhere will love Katy’s 2007 Reserve
Syrah, a rich, wonderfully silky and elegant wine that seduces every
part of your palate and hangs around for a really long time, too. If
you’re looking for something more exotic, the Poetic Cellars 2007
Mourvedre is absolutely stunning right now, and if Dad loves them
big, bold and fruity, there’s nothing quite like the Poetic Petite Sirah.
June means Vintners Festival in the Santa Cruz Mountains, a
traditional time to visit the local wineries. Help us celebrate the evergrowing wine region and pay homage to its roots. The first weekend,
June 2nd and 3rd, Vintners Festival will be hosted at wineries and
restaurants in Santa Clara/San Mateo counties. This is also called “East
Side” weekend. The second weekend, June 9th and 10th, the festival
will be hosted at wineries and restaurants in Santa Cruz County, called
the “West Side” weekend. Wineries participating in the Vinters’
Festival will be pouring from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. with restaurants
closing at 4 p.m. Many wineries will be pouring their wines at local
restaurants for the festival as well as at their own winery locations. For
a map, brochure and tickets, call the Santa Cruz Mountains Winegrowers Association at (831)685-VINE (8463). You may also purchase
your commemorative wine glass, which serves as your ticket to taste
throughout the entire double weekend event! Tickets are $40 in
advance and $45 at the door. Festival glasses may be purchased online
from SCMWA.com. All Summit to Sea wineries will participate in
Vintners Festival on the west side.
Dancing Creek will be open Saturday, June 9, for Vintners Festival
and will be sampling their new 2009 Santa Cruz Mountains Pinot
Noir, their fun new white blend of Chardonnay, Gewurztraminer and
Pinot Grigio, called “Samba,” and their “Late for the Dance” late
harvest Zin. Kick up your heels at Dancing Creek!
On Father’s Day weekend, June 16 & 17, Amy and Paul Kemp
invite you to come up to Loma Prieta Winery to enjoy the best view
in the mountains, and to help celebrate the release of their new 2010
Viognier. Enjoy fresh bivalves from
Bill the Oysterman and live music
by our favorite local musician,
Asher Stern, all weekend. Bring
your dad and treat him to some
Pinotage and a game of bocce ball!
Or maybe he’d prefer to play catch
with everyone’s favorite German
short-haired pointer, Moe!

SANTA CLARA/SANTA CRUZ/MONTEREY COUNTIES | WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK
Monterey Wine Festival Celebrates 36 Years
Now in its 36th year the Monterey Wine Festival continues to evolve
into a platform designed for the regional wine industry and the
community of wine lovers. After 36 years the festival has settled into the
wine and food scene like a seashell in the sand. On Friday, June 8 from
5 to 9 p.m., the festival kicks off with guests savoring bites of wonderful
food and sips of world-class wines. The cool ocean breeze reminds
guests of the local heritage and of this festival that celebrated the wine
industry long before many wineries even existed. Now the festival
features many new editions that keeps guests happy and the palate alive
with anticipation. Spirits, beers, oysters and Champagne are all featured
on Friday evening as well as seafood from the Central Bering Sea
Fisherman’s Association, arrays of cheeses, charcuterie and more all pair
nicely with the wines. One can only imagine what else you would need
to feel more bliss. What fun to hob-knob with the industry professionals
and fellow guests that share a love of all that is good to the palate!
On Saturday, June 9 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., the celebration
continues with another addition The Bartenders Fedora Professional
Cocktail Competition Throw Down! Guests continue the celebration
with a completely mouth watering experience from both the wineries
and purveyors of food. Along with all these festival ingredients live
music is the final sensation that further ensures a ultimate winning
combination. Wine, food, beer, spirits, music…aahhh!
It’s a Chowdah Throw Down!
Another successful addition to the festival this year is the 3rd Annual
West Coast Chowder Competition. Professional chefs from the west
coast will come to compete and chowder lovers will pay homage to
their special creations. This year chefs from Seattle, San Francisco,
Portland and other chowder known destinations will be landing in
Monterey to compete against the local titans of chowder. All
competitors will be trying to slay the judge’s tongues with their
creations, take home the prize money and boast of their achievement in
what is expected to be one of the most impressive competitions around.
Clam, Seafood and Creative Chowders are the categories that make up
the contest and the big copper pot award goes to the Best of Show.
Guests can sample or buy a cup of chowder, pick their own personal
favorites and vote for the people’s choice award comparing their palettes
to the judges. Wines that pair with chowders will also be available to
sample.
Festivities take place at 2012 Custom House Plaza, Monterey. Tickets
are available online at www.montereywine.com.
