Wineology

INTELLIGENCE FOR THE WINE CONSUMER

BY LEN NAPOLITANO

Do you have any suggestions for giving wine as gifts?


With wine, generally you will get a higher
quality as you pay more, but the jump in
price has to be significant, say, more than
20%. Prices differences within 20% of each
other will probably not make noticeable
differences in quality. If you know little or
nothing about the gift recipients specific
wine preferences, try choosing a wine based
on his or her personality or lifestyle. Here are
some ideas:
Champagne and Sparkling Wines: Safe as
a gift at any time. They symbolize celebration,
happiness, good times and also serve as a predinner beverage. The original sparkling wine,
French Champagne, tends to be the most
expensive sparkling wine (major brands start
at around $25) while American sparkling
wines made in the French traditional method
are more affordableand many are just as
good. If you prefer to give an imported
sparkling wine, they usually come at lower
prices than French Champagne; look for
Italian Prosecco or Spanish Cava.
Pinot Noir: An extremely nuanced wine,
but also a versatile wine that is appreciated by
devotees of both red and white wines. Pinot
Noir tends to cost a little more, on average,

than other varietal wines, so expect to spend


more than $25 if you want something of
quality and true varietal character. Choose a
wine from a small AVA in either California or
Oregon, or from New Zealand.
Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot: Two
classic, medium- to full-bodied, singlevarietal wines appropriate for someone who
tends to be more traditional in their food
selectionsperfect for the meat-eater.
Choose a sub-appellation of either Napa or
Sonoma Valley in California, from the
Columbia Valley in Washington, or the
Coonwarra region of Australia. American
Meritage blends are also good options. Expect
to pay $20 and up for Meritage or singlevarietal wines.
Bordeaux or Burgundy, white or red: A
good choice for for the scholar of world
history, or lover of European culture. Also, for
someone who frequents fine restaurants in
big cities, entertains guests or clients, or
dabbles in gourmet cooking. (These are not
wines to use in cooking!). Pricing, on average,
will be higher than domestic wines from
comparable varietals, but that wont go
unnoticed by the recipient. Prepare yourself

to pay at least $30 for a bottle.


Chianti Classico Riserva: Nothing says
amore better than an Italian red wine from
the heart of Tuscany. Furthermore, if you
upgrade your selection to the category of
Chianti Classico (a small, sub-appellation of
Chianti) the gift says you pay attention to
detail. For the very special person, however,
look for the Reserva term on the labelit
indicates the wine was aged in barrel longer
than non-Reserva wine, adding to its
harmonious taste and romantic symbolism.
Always a great gift for anyone who loves Italy
and Italian food.
Another gift-giving approach is to choose
a wine that has some personal meaning to
you. Because today, remarkably, every
American lives in a wine-producing state, you
can give a wine from your state if your
recipient is from out of state. And, because
most of these wineries are small, they
typically wont have nationwide distribution,
which reduces the chance the recipient will
already have the same wine. Or, give a wine
from producers youve personally visited. The
wine has more meaning if a story about your
personal experience is behind it.

Winegrowing Decisions

BY JOSH STEIN

Two Ways to Produce Bubbles, Two Very Different Results!


Ever been handed a random
glass of sparkling wine at an
event or someones house, from
which you eagerly sipped,
expecting creaminess and length,
but which instead gave nothing
but disappoitment in the insipid,
sweet, bubbled white or pink
grape juice actually in the glass?
No, it wasnt you, and no, all
bubbles are not created equal or
equally. Blame soda for ever
making you think otherwise
since thats essentially how that
wine was made. There may be
a lot of wine with bubbles out
there, but not all are sparkling
wines in the way we usually
assume.
Inexpensive sparkling wine

If your car isnt


getting dirty, youre
not seeing the
real Napa Valley.
Anyone can find the obvious wineries.

intimate and fun wineries you cant find or

tastes cheap not necessarily


because of inexpensive grapes
(though they dont help) but
because of an inexpensive
production process, called the
Charmat or bulk process,
which accelerates the
fermentation and thus the
carbonation, creating an
artificially-tasting mouthfeel on
the tongue. Through the use of
glass-lined pressure tanks,
carbon dioxide can also be
injected into the wine, giving it
carbonation ala soda water. The
result of either process looks like
sparkling wine, but it sure
doesnt give the same pleasures
since with wine the time taken in
production is reflected in the
mouthfeel of the finished wine
itself. It is literally a case of
tongue beware!
Indeed, without considerable
time on the lees, the spent yeast
and other fermentation byproducts, the creaminess we
associate with a sparkling wine
wont be present, which is why
the bubbles dont have the same
mouthfeel. This latter, methode
traditionelle, process produces
the bubbles as part of a long,
slow fermentation on the yeast in
individual bottles and is what
creates the luxuriously creamy
yet fruity essence of proper
sparkling wine or its various
pseudonyms around the world
(cava, prosecco, Asti,
Champagne, etc.). Its no joke
that patience is rewarded in
sparkling wines. The timeframe
is completely different for each
methodology, and that has the
impact on the finished product.
Equally, because the pressure

tanks are proportionally so much


larger than a sparkling wine
bottle, the liquid-to-solids ratio
is far different. What produces
the creaminess of the mouthfeel
in aged sparkling wines is
precisely the length of time in
contact with the fine lees thats
what forms the modern day
frozen bolt that each bottle
releases during disgorgement
before final bottling. Producers
will sometimes move sparkling
wines into other glass sizes
before bottling in the finished
glass for this reason: the right
ratio really matters to the aging.
In fact, all of the packaging for
these wines has to be specially
designed because sparkling wine
is under pressure as this natural
carbonation slowly builds, hence
the familiar wire cage to make
sure the cork cannot shoot out of
the bottle.

Thus, unlike a lot of other


things in the world today, you
really do get what you pay for
with fine sparkling wines and
their natural bubbles produced
the low and slow way first
recognized by winemasters
Francesco Scacchi and Dom
Prignon all those centuries ago
in Europe. Any sparkling wine
made the traditional way will
indicate as such on the label
because the imposters legally
cannot, and given the time,
expense and headaches involved,
those who can want credit where
its due! At your next event, ask
to see the bottle before you
imbibe that random glass
handed to you and if anyone
gives you a funny look, now
youve got a conversation starter
for those awkward event
beginnings when no one knows
what to talk about. Enjoy!

Rodney Strong Tour Provides a Peak at Revolutionary Fermentation Systems


Rodney Strong, one of the oldest and
largest wineries in Sonoma County, is not
afraid to innovate. So when it collaborated
with a Canadian company to create square
stainless steel fermenting tanks, the
investment was not seen as a risk but a game
changer for the Healdsburg winerys future.
The goal was to design and build a
winery that allowed us to make the best
possible wine while pushing the boundaries
of both sustainability and efficiency, said
Justin Seidenfeld, Rodney Strong Winemaker.
The custom-built tanks, which were
installed in 2014, can be seen as part of the
winerys complimentary tour offered to
visitors twice a day, subject to availability.
Even if youre not a wine geek, the tanks
are pretty impressive to behold. Standing
almost three feet off the ground, the 112-inch
square, stainless-steel tanks hold 6,000
gallons of wine, or 20 tons of fruit. And, their
clever design has allowed Rodney Strong to
increase its production by increasing the
number of tanks that fit in its on-site 10,500square-foot winery.
Because of their design and the high
polish of the steel, the tanks reduce water
usage by almost 65 percent, and workers
dont need to use caustic cleaning agents. The
tanks also require less energy to keep the

fermenting wine cool.


Now, with 57 tanks, Rodney Strong is
the largest square tank winery in the world,
Seidenfeld said, and definitely worth a look
when visiting the grounds.
Visitors can make a reservation for a tour
at either 11:00 a.m. or 2:00 p.m. each day. The
tour includes detailed history of the winery,
which began after dancer Rodney Strong
moved from the bright lights of Broadway
and Paris out west to retire in 1959.
Strong was an innovator from the start.

Rodney Strong Winemaker Justin Seidenfeld

Though the Russian River valley was known


for agriculture, wine grapes had not been
part of the farming culture. Strong and his
wife began making wine and operating a
tasting room in an old boarding house they
bought in Tiburon.
A decade later, Strong had purchased
acreage in Sonoma County and began to
employ the French concept of terroir,
planting grape varieties in the soil types and
microclimates where they grow best, helping
to change the trajectory of this now-worldfamous wine region.
Since those humble beginnings, Rodney
Strong Vineyards has grown in size and
acclaim, including being named 2013
American Winery of the Year by Wine
Enthusiast.
Visitor tours run for about an hour, and
along with the detailed history delivered by a
knowledgeable staff member, visitors on tour
will see the winerys small-lot artisan cellar
and the estate vineyards.
A self-guided historical tour is also
available and free of charge.
After the tour, be sure to indulge in a
specialty tasting, like the single vineyard and
reserve tasting or the wine and food pairing.

tastings, visit rodneystrong.com or call

Wine Glass Writer: The Story - The Product - Mother/Daughter Company


Wine Glass Writer, a washable non-toxic marker that writes on
glass and glazed ceramics, was created as a solution to a common
problem people often forget where they left their wine glass or
which wine charm they chose, but they seldom forget their names.

Now celebrating year six.


Jeannine Fradelizio, a native Californian living in the San Francisco
Bay Area, created Wine Glass Writer. Married to a restaurateur,
Jeannine spends a lot of time entertaining at home and regularly
found herself collecting half-full abandoned wine glasses, pouring
delicious wine down the drain, and spending one too many dinner
parties hunched over the sink rewashing abandoned glasses. So she set
out to create a solution.
After months of working with chemists, then testing and re-testing,
she produced her first set of Wine Glass Writers. Emboldened by a
universally positive response from retailers and her wine drinking
friends and wanting to do something special with the $14,000 her
grandpa had left her, she invested in Wine Glass Writer...and hasnt
looked back since. In its first year on the market Wine Glass Writer
was named among The Wall Street Journals Top Five Wine
Accessories of the Year. That was in 2011 and today Wine Glass Writer
is a 100% family operated.
In 2014 Jeannines daughter, Renee Stewart joined the team
becoming vice president. Renees management and marketing
background is bringing WGW to a new level. Jeannine and Renee are
having a blast.
Wine Glass Writer is certified non-toxic, ASTM D-4236. The ink
dries in 1-2 minutes and is virtually odorless so it does not interfere
with a wines bouquet. Best of all, it stays on for the life of a party,

Daughter and vice president, Renee Stewart, with owner and founder, Jeannine Fradelizio

without smudging, and washes off easily. But Wine


Glass Writer is not just for wine glasses. Creative customers use
Wine Glass Writer on all glazed ceramics, mirrors and mason jars,
bottles and more. Wine Glass Writer remains among the best-selling
wine accessories online and at thousands of wineries, cooking stores
and retailers across the U.S.,Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Chile
and Europe.

Trattore Farms
Award-winning, Estate-grown Wines and Locally Milled Olive Oils
Trattore Farms, home to wines and olive oil, have moved to their estate vineyard
after seven years of construction. The tasting room leads to an outdoor patio with
expansive views of this premier winegrowing region of Dry Creek Valley,
synonymous for Zinfandel. Owner Tim Bucher sustainably farms 15 acres of
vineyards to produce small-lot vintages of Rhne varietals such as Grenache, Syrah,
Mourvedre, Roussanne, Marsanne and Viognier. Olive oil is produced on-site from
10 acres of olive orchards ranging from one year to 180 years old using an Italian
stone and hammer mill.

111816switch.qxp_Layout 1 11/9/16 4:32 PM Page 3

Fun Facts
The tasting room just had its grand opening in late 2015.
It is the scenic backdrop for casual or intimate gatherings.
A wood-fired pizza oven, barbecue and culinary kitchen
provide capabilities for gourmet wine, olive oil and food
pairings. Buchers ties to the music industry, as chairman of
the Grammy Foundation, bring well-known acts for special
events, such as a recent Farm-Aid benefit led by Grace Potter
and
John Mellencamp.

Protecting the Land for Future Generations


Protecting the environment is high on Buchers priority list.
Trattore, which means tractor in Italian, runs on solar power,
and all irrigation uses recycled water. Coming from a family of
Swiss immigrant farmers, Bucher understands the need to
protect the land for future generations. He uses his
background in technology and engineering to ensure his
operations are efficient and sustainable. But that technology is
all behind the scenes.
Visitors to Trattore will only feel welcomed like family
invited to take a relaxing break with a fine glass of wine and a
breathtaking view of the surrounding Dry Creek Valley.

Tim Bucher has an affinity for tractors since he was young, hence the winerys name and
the tractor logo on the wine bottles.
Tim grew up in Healdsburg on his family-owned dairy farm in Russian River Valley. He
began making wine when he was 17 years old.
Wine club members receive wine and olive oil in their shipments.
Trattores culinary kitchen allows for food pairings, guest chefs and corporate retreats.

Sutter Home Winery


Not So FastA Stop at Sutter Home Offers Welcome Surprises
That Napa Valley is evolving is without dispute, but there are touchstones deserving of
appreciation for their role in Napas history, and for what they continue to deliver for every
visitor willing to join in the experience. Speeding down the highway is a bad idea for a variety
of reasons, chief among them the very real chance youll miss something special. Not so fast,
there are memories to be made in unexpected places.
Just such a stop along Highway 29 is Sutter Home, a Napa stalwart first founded in 1874 and
under the care of the Trinchero family since 1948. One of the few remaining tasting rooms to
offer complimentary tastings (although more premium options are also available, featuring
only at the winery offerings that show another side of Sutter Home), a stop at Sutter Home in
St. Helena offers an opportunity to breathe in some Napa history, and appreciate how a familys
careful stewardship underpins one of Americas most familiar wine brands.

A Step Back in Napa History


The tasting room reveals itself as you enter, part wine bazaar, decidedly old fashioned
tasting bars, and incredibly welcoming hospitality staff that make you glad youve made the
stop. Look up and youll see a series of fans moved by long pulley belts that harken to another
era, the first hint the building itself is a bit historic. Large oak puncheons line the walls. At the
far end a history tryptic sets the Sutter Home stage, and a large photo shows a team of six
dappled white horses pulling a wagon load of barrels from an early barn-like building marked
Sutter Home Winery & Distilling. Be sure to ask about that.

Wine Country This Week >> WINE COUNTRY NEWS

A Gardeners Delight
It is a tasting room, of course, so familiar wines are there
for exploring, including all the popular favorites, and some
you may not have seen at home. After all, there are 23
varietals available, with six variations on Moscato, including a
bubbly, White Zinfandel (full throated Red Zin as well) of
course, and classic versions of Chardonnay, Cabernet, Pinot
Noir, Merlot and more.
This is the place for souvenirs both serious and whimsical.
The shoppers amongst you will delight at the selections,
including some laugh out loud reminders that wine can and
should be enjoyed without pretentions.
Sutter Home, of course is equally well known for its Build
A Better Burger campaign each year, one of the most
successful food and wine experiences ever created. But even
more impressive are the winerys efforts each year to fight
cancer.

Its easy to miss if you rush on by, but one of the most compelling reasons to stop at
Sutter Home are the immaculate gardens and the lovingly maintained 19th Century
Victorian mansion that stands proudly alongside the Visitors Center. Camellias
planted in 1876 hint at the wonders youll find as you wander the grounds.
The White Zinfandel Garden was established in 1874, and features 100 different roses,
enough to make any rosarian swoon. Around a Gazebo, some tree roses are marked by
when they were first planted, including a Double Delight (1997), Secret (1994) and
Peace (1945). These are roses unlike the modern hybrid versions. Aromas fill the air
and recall a calmer, simpler time. There are 40 varieties of Day Lilies, and a stately
Canary Islands Palm tree, one of the finest examples in all of Napa Valley.

Sutter Home For Hope


Over the past 15 years Sutter Home has helped raise more
than a million dollars under the Sutter Home For Hope
campaigns, which annually donate funds from your purchases
of Sutter Home during Breast Cancer Month each October.
The support has focused on breast cancer research, treatment
and education programs across the United States, inspired by
a determined effort to combat cancer after Vera Trinchero
Torres, a founding family member was diagnosed with cancer
some years ago. This year the Huddle Up For Hope and
Capsules For Hope efforts lead the way. Your host will
provide details, or check the familys website at
www.sutterhome.com for updates.

Its been quite a year for Miljenko Mike Grgich and team over at Grgich
Hills Estate. Not only have they commemorated the 40th Anniversary of the
famed Judgement of Paris Wine Tasting of 1976 where Grgichs 1973 Chateau
Montelena Chardonnay outscored the best white wines in France, but Mike also
turned 93 years old. And if thats not reason enough to celebrate, the 2016
vintage also marked his 58th harvest in winemaking. Given the huge historical
significance of these achievements, it seems only fitting to celebrate them in
exquisite style with the release of the 2013 Grgich Hills Estate Paris Tasting
Chardonnay a nod to the unprecedented win which turned the wine-world on
its head and firmly placed Napa on the map as one of the worlds top grapegrowing regions. This highly allocated wine showcases the Old Wente Clone
fruit from their oldest estate Chardonnay vineyard in Carneros. Its done
without a traditional secondary malolactic fermentation in order to preserve
the fresh flavors and pleasing acidity. The current vintage (as all previous
bottlings) carries a sales price that matches Mikes age upon releaseso for this
year $93/bottle. Its reserved for the tasting room and wine club members only
(due to the limited production) and is a must-taste (and buy!) when visiting.

for wine lovers, so reservations are required. You

particularly on the weekends, but the hospitality

Picture this you are driving along Sonoma and Napas gently curving back roads,
watching the vine-striped hills and oak-studded pastures flash by your car, and
suddenly, there it is a breathtakingly beautiful French Chateu, sitting atop a vinecovered knoll. Meticulous vineyards and beautifully manicured landscaping surround
the property. You simply must stop and check this place out!
Domaine Carneros was founded in 1987 by Claude Taittinger, because he felt that
the 138-acre parcel in the heart of Carneros would be a worthy counterpart to his
familys Domaine Taittenger in France. He chose Eileen Crane to oversee the
development of the winery and vineyards and to create the perfect California
expression of the Taittenger style in Carneros.

Champagne, Cheese and Caviar? But, of course!


Domaine Carneros is one of the few wineries where you may relax and enjoy table
service outside on the terrace or inside in the beautifully elegant salon, while taking in
the stunning 360-degree vineyard views. Wines may be enjoyed in flights by the glass
or by the bottle (hint try a flight first to discover your favorites, then buy yourself a
glass or bottle of your favorite sparkling wine, Chardonnay or Pinot Noir). Caviar and
cheese plates are also available.

Lets Talk About The Wines


Because these wines are made outside of the Champagne
region in France, they must be called sparkling wines,
instead of Champagne. Domaine Taittenger is a famous
French Champagne house and their sparkling wines are made
with grapes from their California estate vineyards, using
meticulous mthode traditionnelle, so this is about as close to
Champagne as you can get in California. These sparkling
wines are seriously good and they have multiple medals and
accolades to prove it. The still wines (Pinot Noir, Chardonnay
and limited-production Avant-Garde Ros) are amazing as
well.
I enjoyed a flight of sparkling wines during my visit and
each wine was excellent! My favorite wines were the following:
Blanc De Noir ($38): This delicious sparkling wine is
packed with intense aromas and flavors of pear, cherry,
honeysuckle, cream and buttered toast with honey, all
wrapped up in a vibrant mouthfeel. Long, delicious finish
that begs for another sip.
2012 Brut Ros ($39): Mouthwatering aromas of ripe
cherry, berry, plum and roses all play nicely together from the
first sip, through the elegantly effervescent mouthfeel and on

Celebrating 116 Years!

Historic Milestone
Beaulieu Vineyard, the home of the renowned visionary Georges de Latour,
celebrates a historic milestone this year, its 116th anniversary. Located in the
heart of the Napa Valley, off Highway 29, Beaulieu Vineyard welcomes visitors,
near and far, to one of the finest wineries in the world. In 1900, Georges de
Latour founded his winery with the vision of creating world-class Cabernet

For the wine connoisseur seeking to experience Beaulieus collection of
Reserve wines, the Reserve Tasting room cant be missed. For $40, the Reserve
Tasting offers a selection of current vintage Reserve wines with no reservations

it houses one of the most comprehensive wine libraries in California. The
Retrospective Reserve Tasting offers guests the opportunity to taste a flight of
Library vintages of the Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon,
Tapestry Bordeaux blend and the Clone series of Cabernet Sauvignon, guided by
one of their knowledgeable Wine Educators. The selection of vintages varies by

Cabernet Sauvignon.

were bringing the wines to San Francisco,
explains Tom Ferrell, Executive Director,
Spring Mountain Winery District Association.
The 18 participating wineries are: Barnett
Vineyards, Behrens Family Vineyard, Cain

why they chose to cultivate grapes on one of
Napa Valleys steepestand most historic
mountain regions.
The small Spring Mountain appellation
has produced an abundance of wines
acclaimed worldwide for the unmistakably
intense flavor and delicate, balanced tannins
that are now the signature of the
appellation, Ferrell explains.
He adds, This is a chance for wine
36

Cain Vineyard, springmountaindistrict.org

aficionados to taste these wines in a beautiful


location overlooking the San Francisco Bay
and the Golden Gate Bridge while beginning
to plan follow-up visits to the wonderful
family-owned wineries in attendance at their
properties high on Spring Mountain.

Spring Mountain District


Spring Mountain was described 25 years
ago by a prominent wine writer as probably
more responsible than any other Napa
hillside for creating the mystique of
mountain grapes.
With a strong identity formed over one
and one half centuries, the region finally
became an official AVA in 1993. The region is
known for its lush vegetation, redwood
groves, picturesque, steeply sloped vineyard
blocks and family wineries hidden from view
among dark forests and steep winding roads.
Its vineyards range from small to smaller,
often hand-tilled on terraces and sloping
meadows. Its varied terrain includes a wide
variety of soil types and exposures which is

the source of the diversity of its wines.


Farming on Spring Mountain is not easy,
and the district has attracted strong,
independent and passionate winegrowers.
From these viticultural challenges come a
proliferation of unique wines. Within this
diversity the wines have some common
characteristics. Spring Mountain red wines
are known for their intense color, bright fruit
aromas and surprisingly soft flavors. Spring
Mountain whites for their acidity, balance
and long life in the bottle.
Today, the wines of Spring Mountain
receive consistently excellent reviews and
ratings between 90 and 100 points from
sources such as Robert Parkers Wine
Advocate, The Wine Spectator, Connoisseurs
Guide and The Wine Enthusiast.
There are currently about 30 vineyards
and wineries, encompassing 8,600 acres of
mountain wilderness, of which about 1,000
are planted to vineyards.

springmountaindistrict.org.

One-of-a-Kind Shopping

Yuletide carols are somehow sweeter in


the town of Yountville. Several music
ensembles will lend their voices, music and
talent to the festivities.

From hand-painted chocolates and


exquisite jewelry, to local artwork and luxury
spa goods, Yountvilles local artists and

everyone on your holiday list. Following the
town lighting, Yountvilles art galleries and

clip-clopping down the sparkling lanes of
downtown Yountville starting at 6 p.m. Its an
opportunity to cuddle up, drink a glass of
wine and savor a special moment in Wine
Country. Carriage rides are free for event
attendees.

Photos with Santa


Hes making his list and checking it twice
and Santa will be ready and waiting for the
sweet whispers (and occasional tears) of
children eager to share their wish lists.

Tree and town lighting


Always the highlight of the festival, Santa
and Yountville Mayor John Dunbar will light
the tree in the Community Center Plaza
located at 6516 Washington Street promptly
at 5:45 p.m. Townsfolk and visitors far and
wide will gather round some perched atop
the shoulders of sturdy parents to gaze
upon thousands of lights in the brisk
November air. Its a community moment that
draws people close and collectively brings joy
to the season.

SONOMA COUNTY << Wine Country This Week

Francis Coppola Announces Opening of Werowocomoco Restaurant


Unique Dining Destination Opened November 5
Francis Coppola opened his newest culinary destination. Located
at Virginia Dare Winery in Sonoma County, Werowocomoco
(pronounced: Wero-wo-como-ko) opened to the public on Saturday,
November 5th. Named after the impressive 17th century Algonquin
settlement, Werowocomoco follows in the footsteps of Virginia Dare
Winery, whose heritage is steeped in American native myth and early
American winemaking.
Virginia Dare Winery highlights the genesis of American
winemaking, so it makes sense that our new restaurant would
celebrate our countrys indigenous foods, said Francis Ford Coppola.
With Werowocomoco, my goal is to present a menu inspired by the
culinary traditions of the earliest inhabitants of North America.
The unique fare focuses on native ingredients with a zestful accent.
Culinary designs such as bison ribs with a berry barbecue sauce,
hearty river-harvested wild rice with cranberries, and fry bread tacos
with many fillings are a few of the highly anticipated items. With a
capacity of 66 interior seats and extended al fresco patio dining,
Werowocomoco offers northern Sonoma County a new culinary
outpost and a conversation starter in the name (Wero-wo-comoko). Try it, its fun to say, says Coppola.
Werowocomoco denotes a significant part of history and references
a powerful Native American settlement, located along the York River in
Virginia. Often called the original capital city of Virginia,
Werowocomoco, meaning place of leadership, was the center of the
Powhatan Confederacy in the early 17th century under the paramount
chief Powhatan, an Algonquian political and spiritual leader. Powhatan
oversaw several tribes, including the Pamunkey in the areas of what is
now present-day Richmond. Today, the highly respected Pamunkey
Indian Tribe continues to have a presence in the area. With a personal
blessing from the Pamunkey chief, Coppola has been entrusted to
borrow the Native American name Werowocomoco and honor the

cultural heritage of the Pamunkey people and their vibrant history.


Virginia Dare Winery, American wines since 1835, pays tribute to
Americas winegrowing heritage. The existence of the 400-year-old
scuppernong Mother Vine, a variety of Muscadine, growing on
Roanoke Island, North Carolina is intertwined with the story of one
of the first English settlements in the New World, which later
mysteriously disappeared without a trace, leaving nothing but a
spellbinding story of mythical and mysterious characters each of
which grace the labels of our wines. Crafted with grapes from the
finest viticulture regions in California, these wines are rich with
characteristics befitting an American legend: Pure. Natural.
Distinctive. Learn more by visiting Virginia Dare Winery located at
22281 Chianti Road, Geyserville, CA 95441. For more information,
visit www.VirginiaDareWinery.com.
The Family Coppola encompasses all of the things Francis loves
most cinema, wine, food, resorts and adventure. Anchored in
Sonoma County, Francis Ford Coppola Winery, known for the
superior level of quality and integrity, is, as Francis puts it, a wine
wonderland, a park of pleasure where people of all ages can enjoy all
the best things in life: food, wine, music, dancing, games, swimming
and performances of all types. A place to celebrate the love of life.
The Family Coppola Resorts are a collection of unique properties
where adventure meets serenity. Drawing upon inspiration from his
film career and travels around the globe to the far-reaching corners of
the world, Francis created each resort embracing its off-the-beatentrack location, making it an ideal destination for exploring the natural
wonders of the area while relaxing in tranquil surroundings.
Additionally, The Family Coppola operates a venerable film
production company, American Zoetrope; the award-winning allliterary magazine, Zoetrope: All-Story; Cafe Zoetrope in San
Franciscos iconic Sentinel Building in North Beach; and Mammarella
Foods, an authentic line of premium organic pastas and sauces.

Award-Winning Cheese Expert Laura Werlin Hosts Seminar at Dutton-Goldfield Winery


Dutton-Goldfield Winery is offering a wine and cheese pairing
class with award-winning cheese expert Laura Werlin on Saturday,
November 12, at 3pm. In this rare opportunity, guests will taste
limited-production, single-vineyard Dutton-Goldfield wines
alongside some of Americas greatest cheeses in a sit-down tasting
seminar with Laura, and discuss the ins and outs of pairing their own
cheeses and wines at home. Seats are limited to forty guests and
include a wine and grilled cheese reception afterwards, along with an
autographed copy of Lauras book Grilled Cheese, Please or Laura
Werlins Cheese Essentials. Tickets are $95 for members or $115 for
non-members.
For guests who cant make the seminar, Dutton-Goldfields Wine
and Cheese Experience has been updated with the latest wine releases,
and features exciting local cheeses made from cow, goat and sheep
milk. A favorite pairing is the wonderful Valley Ford Cheese
Companys Estero Gold Reserve, aged for over 18 months, paired with
Dutton-Goldfields outstanding 2014 Walker Hill Vineyard
Chardonnay. The crystalline saltiness of the aged montasio-style
cheese dances spectacularly with the crisp citrus notes, creamy midpalate, and structured nuances of this small production Chardonnay.
Laura Werlin is one of the countrys foremost authorities on
cheese. She is a James Beard award-winning author of six books on
the subject, a sought-after speaker and spokesperson for consumer

Education Foundation and is a member of the American Cheese

to warm the room on cooler days. In another corner, a large display
case proudly showcases dozens of wine awards (And the wines are
really good more on that in a bit). A tall, glossy wooden bar spans
the room. There is a private room in the back to accommodate large
groups and private tastings.

Mayo Family Winery recently cleaned up at the Sonoma County


Harvest Fair, raking in two Best of Class medals, eight gold medals, 18
silver medals and 18 bronze medals. That is quite an accomplishment!
I had the pleasure of tasting a couple of the medal winners and I have
to agree with the judges on this these are seriously good wines!
BEST OF CLASS MEDAL 2014 Merlot, The Francis Riggins
Vineyard, Sonoma Valley ($40): Classic Merlot! Aromas and flavors
of black cherry, cocoa, mocha, vanilla and savory herbs all play nicely
together from the first sip, through the sexy, silky mouthfeel and on
through the long finish. GOLD MEDAL - 2013 Grenache, Kunde
Ranch Vineyard, Sonoma Valley Jeffreys Cuvee ($40):
Mouthwatering aromas of ripe cherry, blackberry, Christmas spice
and pepper continue as flavors in the velvety, juicy mouth. Long,
delicious finish.

These are Really Nice Folks, and They are Dog-Friendly, Too!
The tasting room team is made up of friendly, knowledgeable and
absolutely delightful folks! Most of them have been with Mayo Family
Winery for years, so they know the wines, the history of the winery
and many of their customers by name. Feel free to bring your dog!

Lets Talk About The Wines


Mayo Family Winery produces only 5000 cases of wine per year.
These wines are all made from single vineyards and are meticulously
crafted in several small batches. There is a wine for every palate here!
The wines are only available at the winery and on their website they
are not nationally distributed. Tasting fees are nominal: $10 and $15.
Tasting is complimentary for wine club members.

EPA Honors Jackson Family Wines with Green Power Leadership Award
First wine company to be named
green power partner of the year for onsite
renewables
Jackson Family Wines announced that it
has received a 2016 Green Power Leadership
Award from the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA). EPAs annual Green
Power Leadership Awards recognize the
countrys leading green power users for their
commitment and contribution to helping
advance the development of the nations
voluntary green power market. EPA
presented Jackson Family Wines with a Green
Power Partner of the Year award at the 2016
Renewable Energy Markets Conference in
San Francisco on October 17, 2016.
Jackson Family Wines was one of only
three organizations nationwide to be chosen
as a Green Power Partner of the Year. With
this award, EPA recognizes Green Power
Partners that distinguish themselves through
their leadership, overall strategy and impact
on the green power market. Jackson Family
Wines is currently using nearly 44 million
kilowatt-hours (kWh) of green power
annually, which is enough green power to
meet 113 percent of the organizations overall
electricity use. In addition, according to
independent research, Jackson Family Wines
is the largest solar generator in the US wine
industry, generating electricity from 6.5MW
of onsite solar energy systems installed across
nine wineries. Per calculations based on
Energy Information Administration
numbers, this electricity production will
offset over 1,400 California homes worth of
annual electricity consumption per year. By
choosing clean, renewable energy, Jackson
Family Wines is accelerating the transition to
a more sustainable energy future.
It is a great honor to be the first winery
selected by the EPA as a Green Power Partner
of the Year, said Katie Jackson, VP
Sustainability and External Affairs. Our
investment in renewable energy is driven by
my familys commitment to make the highest
quality wines in the most responsible
manner. As a family owned business
committed to remaining viable for multiple
generations, we are excited to be leaders in
demonstrating the value of green power in
supporting energy independence and

reducing greenhouse gas emissions.


Green power is zero-emissions electricity
that is generated from environmentally
preferable renewable resources, such as wind,
solar, geothermal, biogas, eligible biomass
and low-impact hydro. Using green power
helps accelerate the development of new
renewable energy capacity nationwide and
helps users reduce their carbon footprints.
Receiving the Green Power Partner of the
Year Award is a great honor, said EPA
Administrator Gina McCarthy. We applaud
Jackson Family Wines exemplary leadership
in using and advancing the market for green
power. This should serve as a model for the
entire country.
According to the EPA, Jackson Family
Wines' current green power use of nearly 44
million kWh is equivalent to the electricity
use of more than 4,000 average American
homes annually.
Jackson Family Wines approach to
sustainability is rooted in the familys multigenerational vision to make world-class
wines while having a positive and lasting
impact upon natural resources, employees
and communities. Highlights of Jackson
Family Wines progress since 2008 include:
Certification for all family-owned wineries
and vineyards through third party
sustainability programs: California
Sustainable Winegrowing (CCSW),

Sustainability in Practice (SIP), or Low


Input Viticulture & Enology (LIVE)
31% reduction in overall winery water use
8.4 megawatt hours of Tesla Powerpacks
(stationary battery storage systems)
installed onsite
17% reduction in Scope 1- 3 market based
greenhouse gas intensity
98% of bottling line materials recycled
annually
Support for more than 50 communitybased non-profits working to build a better
world Jackson Family Wines published its
first ever sustainability report in September
of this year. The report is supported by a list
of comprehensive 5-year goals, which
include:
25% reduction in market-based Scope 1-3
greenhouse gas emissions intensity
33% reduction in winery water intensity
50% offset of winemaking operations
electricity usage from onsite renewables
50% reduction in facility solid waste
generation
75% employee participation in annual
community volunteer program
Achieve zero-waste tasting rooms
Pilot an innovative trial or continue an
ongoing experimental pilot project each
year
Commit to at least one land conservation or
restoration project per year

Mendocino County Mushroom, Wine & Beer Festival


Visit Mendocino County and its partners invite you to join

mushrooms flourish in abundance in Mendocino County,

perfect place to sample and pick some of the 500 types of
delicious edible mushrooms, such as chanterelles, porcinis,
morels, hedgehogs, and even the extremely rare candy cap
mushroom, a culinary treat with an intense maple syrup
flavor, which grows only along the northern coast of California
(and makes for delicious ice cream!).
To celebrate this cultivation of mushrooms, many
businesses and organizations throughout the county have
partnered to offer a menu of mushroom, winemaker and brew
master dinners, mushroom exhibits, guided mushroom forays,
outdoor adventures, lodging specials and much more in this

MENDOCINO/LAKE COUNTIES >> Wine Country This Week

Good to Know Before Heading to the Tasting Room


Do not be intimidated for any reason. That is rule number one
(and there are very few real rules after that). For the most part,
going wine tasting is about the easiest thing in the world, especially here in California where wineries and tasting rooms
abound. You can find wineries specializing in red wines of all
types, those that are famous for their white wines and others who
pour sparkling wine. It is a matter of doing a little research and
planning your day.
Here are some tips that have proven to be helpful and are designed to help make the sensory adventure of wine tasting more
enjoyable.
Before you start off pack a few essentials: Water (plenty of
water) and something to snack on crackers or a baguette. Many
wineries have picnic areas and there are plenty of delis and bakeries
that can make up a lunch for you, or make your own. Be sure to
nibble during the day and make sure you make time for lunch. Two
tips: drink at least twice as much water as you do wine, and remember that you dont have to drink everything poured into your
glass. There is a reason tasting bars have dump buckets and a
pitcher of water to wash out your glass.
Dont be afraid to ask questions.
You can drink what you want, in the order you want. If you
only like reds, say so; if you dont like sweet wines, speak up. But
the idea of starting with whites, then going on to reds and then
sweet wines is a good guide.If there is a particular wine you want
to try and it is not on the list, ask. There might be a bottle around
that was opened for a trade tasting or by the winemaker. Most tasting rooms are happy to pour a little if you show enthusiasm.

If you plan to take wine home with you, either in the car or on
a plane, buy a cardboard box with Styrofoam wine inserts. Fill it
during the day and this keeps wine from rolling around in the
trunk.
Check out the smaller wineries. It is a revelation.
Take notes on the wines you most enjoyed.
Take advantage of tours when the winery offers them, but keep
in mind that they take anywhere from 20 minutes to well over an
hour, so one a day is plenty.
Buy wines that you can only find at the winery. These often include smaller (375 ml) bottles of limited production ports or
dessert wines. Dont buy a wine you can get at a supermarket back
home.
Dont give too much thought to ratings and vintages. Its like
art: if you like it, its a good wine. It is as simple as that.
Remember that you dont have to do the driving. It takes no
more than a phone call to rent anything from a Town Car or restored Packard convertible to stretch limos and a 20-passenger bus.
All have drivers that will stow your wine for you and the local companies know the area. Tell the transportation company what you
have in mind and listen to their advice. They know the territory
and the people and personalities.
Know your limits. If you get close to it let others taste and you
can listen. It beats ending the day in a blur, and if need be calling
a taxi is cheaper than the alternative.
And if at a seated tasting, dont be afraid to leave a gratuity. Its
more than worth the five or ten dollars to get wisdom and wine
and a great time.
By Charles Neave

Do the Math
One of the questions most asked when it comes to wine is how much of this does it take to make that, and so on. We wont pretend that its simple, but here are some industry statistics that will give a pretty good
answer to that query. As with anything agricultural, of course, they are all based on countless variables when it comes to acre yields, but this is a good starting point. The rest of the information varies little if at all.

A single bottle contains:


750 ml of wine which is 25.6 ounces made
from about 2.4 pounds of grapes (39 oz.) and
is enough for four or maybe five glasses.

One standard oak barrel of wine holds:


295 bottles of wine (or 59 gallons)
made from 740 pounds of grapes
which works out to almost
but not precisely 24 cases of wine.

A case of wine includes:


a dozen 750 ml bottles
(or 24 half bottles)
or 307.2 ounces total, which
comes from 30 pounds of grapes.

62

An acre of vineyard land can give the grower:


five tons of grapes (though it is also less, depending on a variety of
farming and winemaking practices, and on the varietal and the vineyard
location) which will give you 797 gallons of juice (or thirteen-and-a-half
barrels) which is pretty close to four thousand bottles of wine.

pairing, and wine tasting experiences for both the wine novice and
expert.
The Restaurant at Wente Vineyards uses locally grown organic
ingredients and features ingredient-driven California wine country
cuisine. While the menu holds its foundation in American dishes, it is
influenced by French and Italian provincial cuisine. The seasonal menu
changes daily, utilizing produce from The Restaurants organic garden.
Wente Vineyards is also the only winery in Livermore Valley to
offer a championship 18-hole public golf course.
Family, food, entertainment, and of course, the wines beckon
visitors to experience the legacy that is Wente Vineyards.

VASCO ROAD

Livermore Valley, with its rich heritage and variety of wine tasting
experiences, should be a top destination that people consider when
planning their next wine country getaway. As the countrys oldest,
continuously operated, family-owned winery and Californias First
Family of Chardonnay, Wente Vineyards would be a good place to
start the journey. The winery, led by fourth and fifth generation family
members, has clearly proven their leadership both in winegrowing
and in being one of Californias premier wine country destinations.
The Winemakers Studio is an option for consumers to learn more
about wine. This state-of-the-art wine education studio offers an
intimate, behind-the-scenes look at grape growing, wine and food

Association is an alliance of more than 65
wineries, most of them family-run, working
to promote the unique aspects of the wines

1981, the Santa Cruz Mountains AVA is
nestled in one of the most unique
winegrowing regions in the world,

What does all that information on a wine label mean?

XYZ Winery

The U.S. Department of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms regulates wine labels
and requires that information be given in a straightforward way. Basically,
you will want to look for the types of grapes grown, where the grapes are
grown and when the grapes were picked.
