INTELLIGENCE FOR THE WINE CONSUMER


By LEN NAPOLITANO

What is organic wine?


There are certified organic wines the closest thing to an allnatural wine and there are wines made with organically-grown
grapes, the next best alternative. The difference is significant.
Producers selling wine labeled organic have to be
independently certified in both winemaking and farming
practices that is, soil management, and other ecologicallyfriendly methods that meet strict standards of the U.S.
Department of Agriculture.
If the vineyard is farmed organically, but inside the facility
wine is processed independent of organic standards, the wine
is not certified organic. Thus, grapes grown organically do
not necessarily make organic wine. Although the grapes may
have been maintained organically without chemicals like
herbicides, fungicides and pesticides the wine must also
not exceed a government-established, detectable sulfite limit
of 10 parts per million (10mg/liter) to be organic. A typical
non-organic wine might have anywhere from 25 to 80 parts

per million.
Organic wines contain fewer sulfites than non-organic wines
because no sulfites are added beyond what are produced
naturally during normal fermentation. However, the majority of
wines on the market do contain added sulfites, preventing
microbial activity and preserving the flavor, color and long-term
integrity of the wine. Although an organic wine can be as
flavorful and nuanced as any non-organic wine, it is typically
not wine stored for long-term aging.
If you have an allergic reaction to wine, you may want to
consult with a doctor about sampling wines only made from
organically grown grapes. If no relief comes from that, try a
100% certified organic wine, which contains a reduced amount
of sulfites. These wines are commonly found in natural food
grocery stores or online at Organic Wine Exchange. Remember,
fewer sulfites are added to red wine than white wine because of
red wines trademark preservative component, tannin.

Microclimates:
How Location Impacts, Well, Everything!
Terroir. Its one of those words you hear used all the time, but
no one ever really stops to define their usage, and more than
sometimes, its used to cover up ignorance via pretense, which
drives me nuts. Terroir is easy enough to define: every decision
we make about location, varietal, trellising choices, amount of
irrigation, when and how we pick, when and how we ferment
you get the idea, I hope; thats all terroir. Its simply the total
environment and the decisions about that environment, from
planting to grapegrowing through to picking and winemaking.
And it all starts with where you decide to grow your wines years
before there are even grapes.
What makes a wine valley, anyway? While its true you can
grow grapes just about anywhere you can get water and soil
together, that doesnt mean youll end up with wine-quality grapes.
Napa was recognized quite early on in its settlement for what

makes it so special. Yes, there is good heat from its north-south


orientation, but it is also a narrow valley to channel air flow, and it
is close to the bay, which is what allows for the forty- and fiftydegree diurnal temperature swings that produce sun-soaked,
fruit-laden red wines with retained acidity, produced through cool
nights. Equally, consider Carneros and its sand and clay slopes so
close to the bay. Cold climate grapes like Chardonnay and Pinot
Noir produce scintillating wines precisely because of the locale,
needing more cold to show their best.
So, that naturally raises questions about location: which is
better, you want to know, valley floor, benchland, ocean-exposed
or hillsides, right? The answers depend on what you are trying to
grow, where you want to do so, and how expensive your end
product needs to be for it to sell and pay the bills. Access or best
grapes is often a real question addressed by trade-offs in the
growers mind. Being on level ground, closer to transport
corridors, and with a bountiful supply of grapes sounds ideal; level
ground often means drainage issues and the potential to overcrop,
car exhaust ends up on grape skins and thus impacts wine flavor,
and grape quality varies quite a bit by location and varietal most
of the Valley is planted to hardier red grapes for a reason. Even
there, though, there are exceptions as To Kalon, perhaps the
greatest and most reknowned of American vineyards, breaks most
of these rules in terms of location and drainage, accessibility and
crop loads.
Ultimately, the issue of micro-climate isnt just one of ocean
exposure, bay fogs or evening breezes. Its part of a complex dance
in the winegrowers mind, balancing creative desire, agricultural
possibilities and economic reality. The next time you stop in at a
tasting room, ask more Why questions and youll gain more
insight into the philosophy behind whats in the glass. Absolutely,
that sensory experience is the whole point of everything we do, but
how we get there is often many opaque years in the making unless
folks go digging beyond the standard taste descriptors. Trust me,
you will appreciate what is in your glass even more so enjoy!

Josh Stein has been in the Napa wine business for more than a decade, and, in
addition to being owner/winemaker of the Stein Family Wine Group, which
produces a nationally and internationally distributed portfolio of wine brands and
donates a percentage of its sales to the children of wineworkers in the form of
college scholarships and support funds, he regularly consults for wineries and

ANDRETTI WINERY
Private Barrel Tasting and So Much More!
BY JOSH STEIN

Open daily from 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.


4162 Big Ranch Road, Napa CA 94558
1-877-386-5070 | andrettiwinery.com

22

People talk about Highway 29 and the less travelled Silverado Trail, but true
insiders know theres a special fives miles of road that run north out of the city of Napa,
parallel to both aforenamed better-known cousins, but unseen from either, and on this
patch awaits a bit of Italy and a range of wines made for food and good times. Andretti
Winery is minutes from the city, but youve got to know where to look to find it
which makes the arrival all the better!
Founded in 1996 when legendary race car driver Mario Andretti and his friend,
Joseph Antonini, former Chairman, President, and CEO of Kmart Corporation,
brought their shared love of Mediterranean cuisine, lifestyles and wines to the Napa
Valleys Oak Knoll District. Well-known winemaker Bob Pepi has been involved since
the beginning in designing the winery to create the best expressions of food-friendly
releases from the surrounding forty-two acres. The award-winning Cal-Ital wines
have not disappointed, and given the wide range of wines, theres something for
everyone.
Indeed, most would be hard pressed not to find something to their liking in the
Andretti releases. The team has thoughtfully produced multiple families of wines,
with specific varietals and source locations for each. The Montona Reserve are all estate
releases, including Reserve Chardonnay, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. The Napa
Valley Series provides wines from the full range of the Valleys locations and includes
Cabernet, Chardonnay, Merlot, Pinot Grigio, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese, Sauvignon Blanc,
Syrah and a Cal-Ital Zinfandel-Primitivo blend. As if that werent enough, the Villa
Andretti Wines offer small-production bottlings of rare-for-Napa varietals: Barbera,
Dolcetto, Moscato and Riesling.
As might be expected given the founders passions, the winery estates forty-two
acres immediately bring to mind the relaxation of the Aegean. Walk-ins are perfectly
welcome, but many of the winerys best offerings require reservations. Andretti offers

www.WineCountryThisWeek.com

WINE COUNTRY THIS WEEK | ON THE COVER


public tours daily at 11 a.m. and 2
p.m., no appointment necessary,
but there are also a number of
special tastings not to be missed.
The Villa Tasting features four
wines, showing the range of the
winerys releases, while the Napa
Valley Tasting presents five wines
all from Napa vineyards. The
appointment-only Founders
Tasting, seated in the Tuscan
House, presents several reserve
wines: Sauvignon Blanc, Montona
Chardonnay, Napa Vallery
Cabernet Sauvignon, Montona
Merlot and Montona Zinfandel
Port. And those looking for
sweeter wines havent been
forgotten: the Delizia Tasting
concentrates on Moscato and Port.
Something truly unique,
though, is the Private Barrel
Tasting, which does require an
appointment. Giving insight into
the process of maturation in oak,
this begins with a wine tasting
flight in the Barrel Chai, followed
by a tasting of a 2013 Pinor Noir
straight from the barrel. Complete
your experience with a leisurely
stroll around the estate and take in
the stunning vineyard and Napa
Valley views. Because Big Ranch
Road truly is a road mostly used
by locals, it is quiet and serene
despite being only two minutes
from busy Napa-city life. Even
better: Mention this article when
you call or email to reserve a
Barrel Tasting and get 2 Barrel
Tastings for the price of 1!
Do yourself a favor and come
visit the wine country you
envision when you see the words
Napa Valley. The more-thankind folks at Andretti Winery will
be glad to see you and are happy
to pour a variety of wines in a
setting which few know about
even though its been there going
on two decades. Slow down onto
Big Ranch Road and come taste
the fun but only tell those who
deserve to know; just buy wine
and gifts for the rest. Enjoy!

INTERCONTINENTAL SAN FRANCISCO


Member, Les Clefs dOr USA

WCtW: Whats your favorite overall varietal and


where do you like to go to taste it?
Lr: Im a sucker for an old standard Chardonnay
with nice oak and creamy overtones. Rombauer
has a wonderful bottle that hits home with me.
But lately, Ive found myself with a bit of a purple
tongue the sign of a good Petite Syrah, like those
of David Fulton Winery.
WCtW: Which winery has your favorite cave tour?
Lr: Palmaz! This family-friendly wine cave is 18
stories high with technology like no other! Your
visit will be a private experience where they will
dazzle you with excellent wine, beautiful views and
an amazing food and wine pairing!
WCtW: Tell us the best wineries to bring pets.
Lr: Lots of places love animals, but these are just a
few places who have the grounds your pet will
enjoy the most: Alpha Omega, Casa Nuestra,
Titus Vineyards and Jericho Canyon, among
others. Always check ahead for available
appointments. The ideal doggie experience is at
Raymond Vineyards, though. They have created
Frenchie Winery, Napa Valleys first dog winery!
You can watch your pet enjoy an outdoor dog
suite from the Frenchie Cam while tasting
Raymonds wonderful Biodynamic wines!
WCtW: Where would you take friends to learn
about/taste organic wines?
Lr: Frogs Leap, hands down. The relaxed
atmosphere and natural setting just enhance their
unique approach to winemaking.
WCtW: What area would you recommend that is
not part of the popular wine country?
Lr: Howell Mountain. Excellent, big Cabernets
intimate experiences breathtaking views (some
of my favorites are Cade, Cimarossa & Viader).

WCtW: If you were to visit just one winery, which


would you choose and why?
NL: Kathryn Halls stunning winery, Hall
Rutherford. The caves were designed and built by
hand by Friedrich Gruber of Gutenstein Austria.
The caves are finished with handmade Austrian
bricks. The winery is dedicated to rare and single
vineyard red wines.
WCtW: Describe the perfect day in wine country.
NL: Coming from San Francisco, start with a
relaxing scenic drive across the Golden Gate
Bridge. The day should be well planned so youre
not rushed. Try not to make too many
appointments where youre running from one
winery to another. Enjoy the beautiful
surroundings and the education you will get from
the wineries. Have lunch at one the finest
restaurants in Northern California. Stop and take a
break at some of the wonderful shops, cafs with
all the bake goods. (November is truly the most
beautiful time to be in the wine country with the
vines and trees showing off their colors.)
WCtW: Whats your favorite overall varietal and
where do you like to go to taste it?
NL: California Cabernet Sauvignon hands down!
In St. Helena and Rutherford area
WCtW: What winery do you think has the best
over-the-top experience to offer visitors?
NL: Jarvis for the underground streams and
waterfall, famous for both its classic Cabernet and
Chardonnay, tours also includes access to hidden
rooms that display the family collection; the dark
purple 2004 Petit Verdot is amazing
WCtW: Where do you send guests that want to
learn about wine?
NL: Robert Mondavi More regularly scheduled
tour, with tasting and educational facilities.

WCtW: Describe the perfect day in wine country.


tW: Begin at Downtown Bakery in Healdsburg
for breakfast, their sticky buns and croissants are
a must. A nice walk around town afterward is
always refreshing; start with the perimeter of the
square which is filled with boutique shops,
antique stores, tasting rooms and art galleries. I
would then head into Russian River Valley to
explore some Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
Copain on Eastside Road is a must-do for Pinot
Noir and Syrah, then Iron Horse for bubbles. In
downtown Sebastopol my new favorite watering
hole is Claypool Cellars. The tasting room is set
in an old train car in the middle of Gravenstein
Station. Continue on to the coast to Bodega Head
for the stunning cliff side view. After stopping at
a local kite shop and taking it to play at Goat
Rock, I would round the coastal experience with
dinner at Rivers End Restaurant in Jenner right
around sunset time. To end the evening, get a
nightcap at the hip Spoonbar in downtown
Healdsburg.
WCtW: Whats the best wine country picnic spot?
tW: Gustufson by Lake Sonoma is one of my
absolute favorites. This hidden gem winery has
breathtaking views and for the architectural
enthusiast, the house has a Frank Lloyd Wright
style to it. They also offer fantastic wines at a
great price. On your way up stop at the Historic
Dry Creek General Store for lunch provisions.
Gustufson is worth the drive but best to start
here first then work your way down the valley to
other fun spots such as Bella, Preston, Lambert

J VINEYARDS & WINERY


Heaven Around Every Corner You Turn!
BY SUE STRAIGHT, THE WINE WENCH

J Vineyards & Winery truly offers, as President and Founder Judy Jordan says,
heaven around every corner you turn. It is conveniently located just south of
Healdsburg on Old Redwood Highway (same driveway as Rodney Strong Vineyards). If
you are planning on visiting Sonoma County, take my word for it and dont miss this
wonderful place!
The J experience starts as you wend your way up the vineyard-lined driveway. Park
your car, walk over a wooden bridge that crosses a creek (with a resident river otter
how cool is that?) and enter the ultra-modern concrete and glass building that houses
the winery and Visitor Center. The Visitor Center is large, bright and tastefully
decorated. A long tasting bar spans the back of the room and the wall behind the bar is a
work of art. A tasteful selection of J wines, glassware, books, logo wear and more is
artfully displayed on glass shelves and tables around the room.

Several delicious options available for tasting wine at J:

The Bubble Room ($75 per person/$60 for Club J members) is a delightful sit-down

tasting, held in the Legacy Lounge. Guests may choose either five sparkling or still
wines. A cheese plate paired with the wines is available for a modest charge.

Picture this you are heading north on Highway 101


and just past Santa Rosa, you see what appears to be a
French chateau, complete with vineyards and gardens,
plunked down just off the freeway on your left at Fulton
Road. Stop. You simply must not miss this place!
The whole property is a feast for the senses: birds
singing, bees buzzing and snatches of laughter and
conversation delight the ears, scents of flowers, herbs
(and of course wine and food) tempt the nose and the
riot of color from the flower garden and the overall
aesthetic beauty of this place please the eye and soothe
the soul.
You should allow yourself at least a couple of hours
for the Kendall-Jackson Sensory Experience give
yourself about an hour for the food and wine pairing
and enough time to stroll through the gardens a two
and a half acre wonderland of botanical magic. There is
the Wine Sensory Garden (my personal favorite), where
fruit trees and bushes and herbs and flowers that
exemplify a particular wine varietal are artfully laid out,
complete with signs explaining descriptors and affinities.
Along with the Wine Sensory Garden, the
Vegetable/Herb Garden is a growing cornucopia of
edible plants that the in-house chefs use in their wine
and food pairings.
Speaking of wine and food pairing, the friendly and
knowledgeable staff of Kendall-Jackson creates a variety
of absolutely unforgettable experiences, including the
Garden Tour & Tasting, the Blind Tasting Experience,
the Farm to Table Lunch and more. I opted for the
wine and food pairing and I can tell you firsthand, this
experience is well worth every penny! I was treated like
royalty, and Im sure other guests will feel the same!
If wine and food pairing isnt your idea of a good
time or if time is an issue, you may taste wines at the bar
there is something for everyone here! Whichever
experience you choose (any or all!), the end result is a
delicious, fun education at an extremely reasonable
price.
The wines are excellent, by the way! Along with their
better-known releases, Kendall-Jackson produces some
wonderful handcrafted, small-lot wines, some of which
are only available in the wine center and at Partake by
KJ Kendall-Jacksons tasting lounge and flight club
located in downtown Healdsburg.

Hess Collection Winemaker David Guffy


on the Importance of Sustainability
By BONNIE ZIMMERMAN

Winemaker David Guffy spends time in the vineyards throughout the year. I
learned very early that I have to walk the vines. During harvest, I continually taste the
grapes to keep an eye on the maturity of flavors and tannins to ensure the best
expression of a particular vineyard. As a student I loved Cabernet, especially from
Napa Valley and it inspired me to go into winemaking. Now, Im literally on top of
Napa, making mountain Cabernets. Mountain fruit is different from valley floor fruit
and so are the wines. They are structured, complex, rich wines, with distinctive
tannins for long-term aging and concentrated fruit.
A California native who grew up in San Jose, David spent summers with his
grandparents on a 500-acre Kansas farm and has been at the forefront of sustainable
vineyard practices. Being environmentally conscious is not only the right thing to do,
but in the end produces the best tasting wine.
For the past 15 years Dave has been the winemaker for The Hess Collection, which
is located in a historic winery high atop Mount Veeder in Napa Valley. Donald Hess
established his first Mount Veeder vineyard in 1978, and today, they farm about 1,034
acres, all sustainably, with 704 acres of that total in Napa Valley.
From the beginning, Donald Hess brought forward a philosophy of delivering
wines that speak to their natural origins. To honor where the vines come from, and
what they offer, Hess farms sustainably and conducts their business in a sustainable
manner.
The Hess Collection was among the first of Californias wineries to embrace and
become a member of the California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance and was one of
the first to receive certification in the Napa Green Winery program. Dave oversees soil
management, water conservation, erosion protection, integrated pest management,
raptors and the use of goats to clear brush in the springtime. Hess currently has a
small flock of about 100 goats that are released in the vineyards just prior to bud break
to help with weed control and to minimize the use of tractors. Hess also takes a lead in
green packaging, production and in every-day business practices.
The Mount Veeder wines that Dave creates are some of the best in the world. The
2010 Hess Collection 19 Block Mountain Cuvee received 93 points from Wine &
Spirits Magazine and 90 points from The Tasting Panel. The 2010 Hess Collection
Cabernet Sauvignon received 92 points from Wine Spectator and 91 points and a
Cellar Selection from Wine Enthusiast.
At the forefront of sustainable winemaking and crafting incredible wines, Dave
Guffy has established a precedent that raises the bar in wine country.

Sizzling Summer Pairing:


Judds Hill 2013 Napa Valley
Sauvignon Blanc and
Grilled Moroccan Shrimp
Its summer and you know what that means the crisp,
white wines are being released! Theres no better way to spend
a warm evening than pairing a slightly chilled white wine
with a fresh, summer meal. This is absolutely the case for the

LiNdA's griLLed MoroCCAN sHriMp KeBABs

2013 Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc from Judds Hill, which

Ingredients
3 Meyer lemons
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil,
plus cup, plus oil for brushing
2 teaspoons chopped garlic
teaspoon dried oregano
1 pound shrimp
2 large onions

pairs quite perfectly with lovely grilled Moroccan shrimp


kebabs, smothered in lemon, olive oil and spices.
The 2013 Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc from Judds Hill is
made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc grapes that are grown in
the Rawls Vineyard in Calistoga and the Dalla Gasperina
Vineyards in Rutherford. What makes this Sauvignon Blanc
unique is that winemaker Judd Finkelstein ages half of it in
slightly used French oak barrels for a few months; the
remainder of the Sauvignon Blanc is aged in exclusively
stainless steel. This combination of oak and steel aging gives
the wine a bright, crisp texture that is balanced out by a silky,
smooth mouthfeel. The juxtaposition of textures makes the
Sauvignon Blanc versatile and complex characteristics that
make a wine perfect for pairing.

1 large red bellpepper


1 large yellow pepper
2 green onions coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons each chopped fresh basil,
cilantro and flat-leaf parsley
1 teaspoon chopped fresh tarragon
1 pinch each cayenne pepper, allspice,
ground cumin and cinnamon

Preparation
Juice all 3 lemons into a measuring cup and make sure to save the de-juiced lemons
and cut them into quarter sections for the last step. Don't toss them away!
In a large bowl, combine cup of the juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon of the
garlic and the oregano. Add the shrimp, lemon strips, sliced peppers and onions and
toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Preheat a gas grill to medium-high. Soak twelve 8-inch bamboo skewers in water to
cover for 20 minutes.

The grilled Moroccan shrimp kebabs mirror the fabulous


textures of the 2013 Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc from Judds
Hill. The rich olive oil matches the round mouthfeel of the
wine and the heavy dose of lemon complements the crisp
acidity that everyone loves in a Sauvignon Blanc. The sweet
pear, peach and citrus notes of the wine become even more
flavorful alongside the lemon juice, sweet yellow and red bell
peppers, and the herbaceous flavors of the fresh spices.
Additionally, the cayenne pepper, allspice, ground cumin and

In a food processor, combine the remaining cup juice, remaining 1 teaspoon garlic,
the green onions, basil, cilantro, parsley, tarragon, cayenne, allspice, cumin and
cinnamon. Process until smooth. With the machine running, gradually add the
remaining cup olive oil in a slow, steady stream until thoroughly incorporated. Place
into small bowls for dipping.
Thread the shrimp onto the skewers and nestle the shrimp into the de-juiced lemon
skins. Alternate shrimp, sliced peppers and onion pieces onto the skewer. Brush lightly
with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place in the grill, cover and cook 5 to 8
minutes, turning once or twice.

Beringer Winery To Host San Francisco Wine Schools


Three-Day California Wine Intensive August 8-10
San Francisco Wine School challenges
the next generation of wine experts with
the first and only professional credential
program on California wine: the California
Wine Appellation Specialist degree
(CWAS).
San Francisco Wine School founder
David Glancy is one of only twelve people
in the world to hold both a revered Master
Sommelier diploma and a Certified Wine
Educator credential, and is a visionary for
wine education. When he identified the
need, Glancy pioneered CWAS as a unique
deep-dive into all of Californias AVAs for
todays wine experts, a program which has
earned the support of wine grower
associations and The Wine Institute.
The CWAS 3-Day Intensive will take
place August 8-10, at Beringer Winery in
St. Helena, Napa Valley.
I think the Beringer brothers would be
proud to see such an exceptional program
in the very same place where they made
their first wine almost 150 years ago, said
Gillian Balance, Master Sommelier for
Beringer and Treasury Wine Estates. I
myself did not understand the diversity that
California has to offer the wine world until
I began my own serious study of the
geology, geography and history of our
regions. Its about time a school gave

California wine the attention it deserves.

La Toque Awarded Wine Spectator Magazines


Highest Honor for Restaurant Wine Lists
grand Award Honors outstanding
Wine Lists from Around the globe
Ken Frank, executive chef and owner of
La Toque restaurant, and Wine Director
Richard Matuszczak, recently announced
that La Toque has been awarded Wine
Spectators 2014 Grand Award, the
magazines highest honor for a wine list.
Wine Spectators Grand Award has been
recognizing the worlds best wine lists since
1981.
In addition to La Toque, five restaurants
were awarded the prestigious honor for
2014: Clos Maggiore in London; Nice Matin
in New York; Saison in San Francisco; the
Stonehouse in Santa Barbara, California; and
Studio in Laguna Beach, California. The six
2014 winners join 68 other restaurants that
have successfully maintained their Grand
Award status as the worlds top wine
destinations.
Receiving Wine Spectators Grand Award
validates years of hard work in building and
refining our wine list, said Frank. I believe
that quality wine unquestionably elevates the
dining experience and I have crafted La
Toques menu with specific pairings in mind

38

to enhance the flavor profiles of every dish.


I am honored to receive this global
recognition.
Grand Award winners generally offer
1,500 or more selections that express the
superior breadth and depth of offerings from
the worlds classic wine-producing regions.
Each winner must also pass a rigorous
inspection that evaluates the overall quality
of its wine program, cellar, service, ambience
and cuisine. La Toques wine program offers
over 1,900 bottle selections, divided by
varietal and specific region from across the
globe. La Toques wine list is particularly
lauded for its exceptional selection of white
and red Burgundies and domestic Pinot Noir

and Chardonnay. Napa Cabernet, with more


than 370 entries, is the strongest suit
represented, followed by the two other most
popular choices, California Chardonnay and
Pinot Noir, at approximately 200 selections
each.

saturday, July 26 Mindi Abair with special guest elliot Yamin;
spencer day opens the show
In a career that spans seven solo albums and countless collaborations in the studio and live on
stage, Mindi Abair has made her mark on jazz, pop, rock, R&B, soul, funk and more. In addition to
her acclaimed body of solo work that includes ten # 1 radio hits and close to half a million albums
sold, Abair was the featured saxophonist on the 2011 and 2012 seasons of American Idol, jammed
with Paul Shaffer on the Late Show with David Letterman and joined rock legends Aerosmith for
their 2012 summer tour. More recently, Abair received a 2014 GRAMMy nomination in the Best
Pop Instrumental Album category for Summer Horns, a #1 recording with her friends Dave Koz,
Gerald Albright and Richard Elliot.
Elliot yamin is best known for being a fan favorite, and placing third, on the 2006 season of American Idol, which launched his solo career that has featured gold certified albums and the hit single
Wait For you.
Vocalist, pianist and modern torch singer Spencer Day was raised in the small town of Pinetop,
Arizona by his mother, an accomplished music teacher and soprano vocalist. Her talent and love of
music encouraged him to become the singer and musician that he is today, finding inspiration from
the works of Cole Porter, Roy Orbison, Joni Mitchell and many others. It has been an exciting few
years for Day, having performed at the San Francisco Jazz Festival, Hollywood Bowl and at various
international events. Spencer spent the winter of 2014 in the studio working on his fifth
albumDaybreak, set for release on May 6, 2014. The album is filled with a selection of classic tunes
from the 60s, in addition to five original songs that pay homage to the era. The whole album is
really a reflection of where I stand at this moment; more happy than Ive ever been in my adult
life.

saturday, August 16 Chris Botti


In recent years, jazz trumpeter Chris Botti has seen his career launch into superstardom. I always
wanted to be the star, but I wasnt down on myself for being behind the scenes for so long. Botti
has established his reputation touring with Barbra Streisand, performing at the White House with
Herbie Hancock, and selling more than three million albums, including the 2013 release Impressions, a Grammy winner for Best Pop Instrumental Album. He has found a form of creative expression that begins in jazz and expands beyond the limits of any single genre. With Impressions and
the albums that preceded it, Chris Botti has thoroughly established himself as one of the important,
innovative figures of the contemporary music world.Doors: 4 p.m./Show: 5 p.m. | Tickets: VIP $100
/ GA $75

sunday, August 31 tower of power and Jonathan Butler


Since 1968, Tower of Power has been creating a unique kind of soul music, often hard to categorize,
but the bands leader and founding member, Emilio Castillo, has labeled their sound as Urban Soul
Music. Fans have responded with sold out concerts, driven by hits such as What Is Hip, youre
Still A young Man, and more. Rising from the streets of Oakland, Towers rhythm section lays
down a groove like no other, the multi-layered horns are powerful, and the way they approach
everything, from writing and arranging to mixing and performing, is totally their own. Combine all
of that with an outstanding lead vocalist and you have one of the most dynamic groups of musicians to ever hit the stage.
Jonathan Butler is a South African native whose expansive musical gift has earned accolades in the
R&B, contemporary jazz and gospel fields. In 2014, Butler is celebrating what he calls the season
of me and finally admitting that he is living his dream. He tells the story of his life and loves in the
eleven original songs that came from the heart on his forthcoming Artistry Music album, Living
My Dream, which will be released June 24. Doors: 4 p.m./Show: 5 p.m. | Tickets: VIP $95 / GA $65

DeLoach Vineyards Celebrates Winery Renaissance


Winery undergoes Franco-American renovation
DeLoach Vineyards celebrated the
renaissance of its recently renovated Russian
River Valley estate and announced the launch
of a selection of newly created educational
experiences aimed at transforming the
winery into the premier destination of
exploration and discovery in Sonoma
County. The recent renovation and addition
of experiences were inspired by the
entrepreneurial pioneering spirit of the
DeLoach family, Huguenots who emigrated
from the Loire Valley of France to California
in the 17th century and the Fleur de Lys, the
longtime symbol of DeLoach Vineyards.
The Fleur de Lys has traditionally been
used to represent French royalty, JeanCharles Boisset, Proprietor, explained. It is
said to signify perfection, light and life. Due
to its three petals, the Roman Catholic
Church ascribed this flower of the lily as
the special emblem of the Virgin Mary, which
has also been used to represent the Holy
Trinity.
Jean-Charles continued, DeLoach is

grateful to inherit this incredible and


powerful symbol, which for us represents
our holy trinity: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and
Zinfandel and sustainable, organic and
Biodynamic farming.

wineries at one single location in the Sonoma Town Square.

All of Sonoma-Enotecas participating wineries make their
wines in small lots that reflect the craftsmanship and caring
that comes from the passion that each family and winemaker
devote to each vintage.
Favero Vineyards has a passion for the perfect Sangiovese.
In the early 1990s Fred Favero, owner and founder decided to
plant the exact rootstock and variety needed to perfect his
proprietary blend, Monte di Sassi and to make his perfect
Sangiovese.
Seabiscuit Ranch produces a sleek and spirited
Chardonnay and Merlot styled to win legions of admirers.
Drink the wine from the Ranch where the famous horse retired
in northern Californias Redwood Valley.
IL CUORE means The Heart in Italian. The name is a
tribute to the Italian immigrants who first planted grapes in
the North Coast of California in the late 19th century. The goal
of IL CUORE is to produce wines of quality and character at a
price suitable for daily consumption as part of a healthy and
passionate lifestyle.
Brutocao ferments in small lots to intensify fruit flavors and
every step in their winemaking is taken with care. Their red
wines are unfiltered and un-fined to ensure that they retain all
their full, rich character. All of their fine wines are handcrafted from grape to glass.

wines are truly special finds and are known for high quality
and high value. The Compass wines are produced from grapes
sourced from all points of the Compass not just from
Sonoma County, California.

Steve Ledson Adds Mountain Terraces to His Portfolio


Award-winning Wines and Breathtaking views
Steve Ledson, the fifth-generation
winemaker, who has founded and
established Ledson Winery and Zina Hyde
Cunningham brands, has added to his
portfolio by purchasing the spectacular
Mountain Terraces Vineyard in Sonoma. He
has announced his plan to produce two new
wines from the breathtaking vineyard and
those wines will comprise his exclusive new
Mountain Terraces wine brand. The 125-acre
property sits high atop the Mayacamas
Mountain range some 1,800 feet above the
Sonoma Valley floor. Mountain Terraces
Vineyard is among the first vineyards
identified with the brand new Moon
Mountain District AVA appellation.
Currently, Ledson is hand-crafting two
different Cabernet Sauvignons. This is a
truly phenomenal vineyard capable of
producing some marvelous, world-class
wines, states a very enthusiastic Ledson. I
decided to continue calling it Mountain
Terraces as a homage to the location and

Follow us on twitter @WineCountrytW

because when visitors arrive at the vineyard


site, it is nearly at the top of the mountain.
Mountain Terraces Vineyard is located
within the 17,663 acres of the Moon
Mountain District, with only 1,500 acres
planted. This area was approved as an
American Viticultural Area in October 2013.
This is an uncharacteristically small block of
land to be designated as an accredited
appellation, but because of the uniqueness
and quality of the grapes grown in this area,
it was granted very special approval. The

idiosyncratic microclimate of the Moon


Mountain District experiences temperature
inversions that create more even ripening
conditions on its slopes than on the
surrounding valley floor, promoting the ideal
environment for flourishing, quality fruit.
The Mountain Terraces Vineyards
southwestern facing, well-drained site has all
of the hallmarks of a world class vineyard. It
delivers not only consistency and naturally
low yields, but features three distinctively
different soil types: White Rhyolite, Brown
Andosite and Red Basalt. Alone, these soils
create bold, one-of-a-kind flavor
characteristics and, combined together, they
produce wines with endlessly abundant
layers of fruit and delightful variation and
complexity.
Ledson purchased the property in
December of 2012. In addition to the 125
acres of existing vineyards, there is a
working, state-of-the-art winery and two
guesthouses offering visitors stunning views

survey. They were asked to reflect on their education, and teachers in
Sonoma Valley, and choose a favorite elementary teacher, middle
school teacher and high school teacher. Dave Neubacher, Kathy
Eshelman and Andy Gibson were selected by a significant number of
students. These teachers will be honored at the Red & White Ball as
the Red and White Teachers of the Year.

Mountain Terraces Vineyard


of the Sonoma Valley and greater Bay Area
including the Golden Gate Bridge. Mountain
Terraces Winery will be open for vineyard
tours and tastings by appointment only.
Mountain Terraces wines will be tasted and
sold exclusively at the winery, although they
may be purchased (on allocation only) by
members of the wine club. Mountain
Terraces wine club members can make a
reservation at the guesthouses, at no cost,
but there is a small annual maintenance fee.
Wine club membership benefits include
an annual November shipment of Mountain
Terraces Moon Mountain District Wine,
access to the spectacular guesthouses,
complimentary wine tastings at the winery
for a party of six, private helicopter tours of
the soaring vistas, savings at the Ledson
Hotel & Centre Du Vin, as well as exclusive
invitations to member-only events.
Over the years, several acclaimed
winemakers have made wines from
Mountain Terraces Vineyard. All have been
extremely impressed, not only with the

quality, but the unique character the rocky


volcanic soil and microclimate bring to the
wine. However, as good as the fruit from the
Mountain Terraces Vineyard has been, the
irrepressible Ledson intends to replant much
of the vineyard in the upcoming years. I
believe with the right rootstocks, clones, row
direction and vine spacing, this vineyard will
be over the top. Not only does Ledson
expect to produce a total of 3,000 cases of
wine annually, with the first wines available
by the end of this year, he also produces an
olive oil, which he says will be the purest
virgin olive oil one can find that is made
exclusively from olive trees on the property.
The olive oil can be purchased online, at
Ledson Winery, or at the Ledson Hotel in
downtown Sonoma.
Mountain Terraces Winery can be reached
at (707) 996-1787 or by visiting
www.mountainterraces.com.
Steve Ledson founded Ledson Winery &
Vineyards in 1993, and his family has been
farming grapes and making wine in Sonoma

County for 150 years. Ledson Winery is


located at 7335 Sonoma Highway in
Kenwood, and is open daily from 10 a.m. to
5 p.m. For more information, call the winery
at (707) 833-2330 or visit the website at
www.ledson.com.
When in Sonoma stay at the Ledson
Hotel (www.ledsonhotel.com) located at 480
1st Street East on Sonomas historic plaza for
the perfect wine country weekend. Ledson
Hotel is home to The Zina Hyde
Cunningham tasting room as well as the
French bistro, Centre du Vin, a launching
pad for everything wine country. Wine
tastings are offered from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.
For more information about Ledson Hotel

Heroes of Woodstock to Celebrate their 45th Anniversary


August 16th at Hobergs Resort and Spa in Lake County
Forty-five years ago on Max Yasgurs hillside field
in Bethel, New York, a generation found its dream a
vision of peace, music and joy that has resonated
through the years. The dream endures, and it is
called Woodstock.
This August the official Heroes of Woodstock a
fair sampling of the iconic musicians from the
original event, featuring Jefferson Starship, Canned
Heat, Big Brother and the Holding Company,
Country Joe McDonald, Tom Constanten (Grateful
Dead) and the Imperial Messenger Service (David
Freiberg of Quicksilver) will celebrate the
anniversary on Saturday, August 16, at Hobergs Resort and Spa, a
mountain top resort on Cobb Mountain, Lake County. The show
will rock you out of your shoes in one of the oldest, most
charming, and most environmentally green resorts in California.
The Jefferson Starship is the long-time evolution of the original
Jefferson Airplane founded by Paul Kantner in 1965. The most
successful by far of the bands that emerged from San Francisco at
that time, the Airplane gave the world classic albums like
Surrealistic Pillow and songs like White Rabbit and Somebody
to Love. Kantner and the Airplane were inducted into the Rock
and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996.
In addition to Paul Kantner, the Jefferson Starship will present
co-founder David Freiberg, who also helped create Quicksilver
Messenger Service, was a member of the Airplane, and as a
member of the Jefferson Starship went on to write one of its alltime biggest hits, Jane. Ace drummer Donny Baldwin boasts a
career that goes back to the mid-70s Elvin Bishop Band (he was
part of the #1 hit single Fooled Around and Fell In Love). Later
he was part of the Jefferson Starship and then the Jerry Garcia
Band, and he has toured and recorded with just about everybody,
including Gregg Allman, Heart and Van Morrison. Chris Smith
holds down both the keyboard and (synth) bass slots la Ray
Manzarek, and worked with the Supremes. Cathy Richardson,
who sings the vocals once made legendary by Grace Slick, was
nominated for a Grammy for her own release, The Road to Bliss,
and earned considerable acclaim for her portrayal of Janis Joplin
in the original cast of the hit show Love, Janis. Jude Gold is the
brilliant lead guitarist who stepped in to substitute for the thenailing (and now much better, thank you) Slick Aguilar.
Canned Heat, whose Going Up the Country became the
unofficial theme song for the original Woodstock Festival, is a
band whose mojo has survived the tragic loss of many of its

original members. Co-founders Larry The Mole


Taylor, a veteran of work with Jerry Lee Lewis and
The Monkees, and drummer Adolfo Fito de la Parra
soldier on, joined by an outstanding group of
musicians including New Orleans legend Dale
Spalding on harmonica, guitar and lead vocals, and
John J.P. Paulus, who has stepped in for regular
guitarist Harvey The Snake Mandel, currently on
injured reserve. The spirit that has allowed the band
to play everywhere from the Fillmore to Madison
Square Garden will never die.
Big Brother and the Holding Company came to
fame as the house band of the Avalon Ballroom led by the
scintillating guitar work of James Gurley. A woman vocalist by
the name of Janis Joplin passed through the band, but theyve
made a long career from their own talents, and are justly regarded
as among the strongest and most enduring bands around. All
three surviving founders will be at Hobergs Resort and Spa,
including Peter Albin (bass, vocals), Sam Andrew (guitar, vocals)
and Dave Getz (drums).
The Imperial Messenger Service celebrates the musical canon of
the legendary Quicksilver Messenger Service. Though history will
remember their hit, Fresh Air, those who know will tell you
about epic psychedelic performances by one of the San Francisco
scenes finest bands. Featuring David Freiberg (guitar, vocals) and
vocalist Linda Imperial, it shares many members with the
Jefferson Starship, which will make for interesting interplay
among the musicians and the music being played!
Hosting and performing will be Woodstock Hero Country Joe
McDonald. In recent years, he has made a particular study of folk
icon Woody Guthrie, and the effect is haunting even as he delivers
the songs with a seemingly casual grace.
Tom Constanten was the keyboard genius behind the Grateful
Deads most experimental and adventurous era, contributing
jewels like the harpsichord in Mountains of the Moon and the
classic keyboard part of St. Stephen. In recent years he has
played solo as well as in the company of Dead sound wizard Bob
Bralove in a group they call Dose Hermanos.
Hobergs Resort and Spa is about 100 miles north of San
Francisco, 100 miles Northwest of Sacramento, and 20 miles
north of Calistoga at State Highway 175 and Entrance Road,
Cobb, CA, in the mountain wine country of Lake County. For
further information, go to www.hobergsresort.com or Cobb
Mountain Concert Series hotline, 1-866-622-7709.

a B.S. in Enology, he spent time at Glen Ellen Winery learning the logistical side of winemaking. In 1992, he joined Duckhorn Vineyards and during his
tenure, the winery earned two Winery of the Year titles from Connoisseurs Guide to California Wine and was named Regional Winery of the Year four
times by Wine & Spirits magazine. Mark was also named Winemaker of the Year by the San Francisco Chronicle in 2005. He joined Artesa in 2009

great campfire sing-alongs lead by the group band called Double Wide and Dangerous.
WCtW: Wheres the best place to relax in wine country?
tA: For me, the best place to relax in is any beach along the Sonoma County coast.
WCtW: Whats an interesting fact that most people dont know about you?
tA: What people dont know about me could fill a book, lets just say I made my first homebrew when I was in high school, and bottled my first root-beer at the age of six.

ABout: As Consultant Winemaker, Terry Adams is directly responsible for guiding the Dutton Estate Winerys wine program. Terrys illustrious career
dates back to 1981 when he began his winemaking trek at Sonoma-Cutrer. In 1991, after spending 10 years under the tutelage of the winerys founding
winemaker, Terry took over as Director of Winemaking where he stayed until his retirement in the summer of 2010. Terry took over winemaking duties
at Dutton Estate with the 2010 vintage. Working hand in hand with Tracy and Joe Dutton, Terry shares their commitment in allowing the expression of
the terroir from the selected estate family vineyards at Dutton Ranch to shine through. With a devoted grape grower and winemaker, the results are
unsurpassed and individually spoken in each and every bottle of wine.
