Zaca Mesa Releases New Rhne Wine: Syrah & Cabernet Sauvignon Blend
One of oldest Santa Barbara wineries creates Super Rhne
with 2014 Toyon Syrah-Cabernet red wine blend
Zaca Mesa Winery was the third winery established in Santa
Barbara County, as well as the first in the county to plant Syrah in
1978. Since then, Zaca Mesa has continued to produce distinctive
Rhne wines that consistently receive high scores and praise industry
wide. Since 1997, Zaca Mesa has focused solely on growing worldclass examples of Syrah and other Rhne varieties through meticulous
farming and traditional winemaking techniques.
Now, Zaca Mesa introduces a new bistro-style wine thats
reminiscent of classic blends in Provence, France or Tuscany, Italy.
Blending traditional Rhne varietals with a structural favorite like
Cabernet Sauvignon creates a Super Rhne wine that pairs easily
with food and is utterly delicious.
This kind of elegant table wine rarely makes it out of France,
says Winemaker Kristin Bryden. Its what locals in the region drink
with meals every day.
Just as the Super Tuscan wines have garnered praise for their
complexity and drinkability, this Super Rhne is perfect for large
meals and is ready to drink. Kristen says We wanted to make
our own silky, fruit-driven blend that could be enjoyed by folks
immediately, with all kinds of foods.
The wines red and black fruit flavors, complex structure and silky

Feature
The Los Head
Olivos Tasting Room
& Wine Shop
Chris Benzinger, owner, tasting room attendant, and employee
of The Los Olivos Tasting Room has been serving up Central
Coast wines, focusing on Pinot Noir, for 30 years. Being the first
independent tasting room in Los Olivos, Chris has been passionate
about Pinot Noir from way before it became a cult varietal about
10 years ago.
The tasting menu varies as does the inventory. For $10 you will
taste nine individual wines from the Central Coast, most from the
Santa Ynez Valley. Your tasting will end with a unique intriguing
dessert wine. On my visit, Chris concluded my tasting with a Saint
James Raspberry Regaleand I couldnt wait to get home to try it
over vanilla ice cream!
Unlike traditional club shipments that have set wines, you select
your customized shipment based on quantity, frequency and price
point. What you receive will depend on Chris current and ever
changing inventory. Wine club members have described receiving
club shipments is like looking forward to opening presents on
Christmas morninga wonderful surprise.
BY DON SONDERLING
If you want top quality, hard to find wines, and love Pinot Noir, dont miss
a visit to The Los Olivos Tasting Room and Wine Shop.
A Step Above
A forty year commitment to the community and environment
has garnered an unparalleled reputation for Bien Nacido &
Solomon Hills:
Vineyards are SIP certified (learn about SIP Certified
Vineyards, at www.sipcertified.org).
Grapes and produce are farmed, enabling the family to keep
workers employed year round.
Consistent recognition by the wine press: Jeb Dunnick (The
Wine Advocate) recently awarded scores of 90-94 to half a dozen
2013 releases; and Antonio Galloni gave high praise to the 2012
Bien Nacido Syrah (96 points) as well as the 2013 Bien Nacido and
Solomon Hills Chardonnays (both receiving 95 points).
Dont miss an opportunity to take home a bottle. Visit the tasting
room Thursday through Monday, 11am-5pm.

idyllic drive through vineyards and beautiful countryside, guests are welcomed into a
tasting room full of culture and tradition, with an equally present sense of uniqueness

hobby. Years later, that passion for winemaking is more evident than ever, and is enjoyed
by thousands of wine lovers throughout the world.
The team at Opolo Vineyards has made it their goal to show that wine tasting does
not have to be intimidating. The tasting room is inviting and the staff is passionate,
friendly and knowledgeableproving that wine tasting can be both educational and fun.
Opolo grows nearly 300 acres of grapes on both the east and west sides of Paso
Robles. This provides a wide range in climate, soil and growing potential, which allows
Opolo to produce 20 different varietals. At any given time, more than thirty wines can be
found on the Opolo tasting list. Unique single varietals are an Opolo specialty, as well as
creative and delightful blends.

STAFFORDS CHOCOLATES
Chocolate Bliss in Los Olivos
Qualityand Locality
Supporting the local community is of paramount importance.
Wherever possible, fruits, nuts and dairy products are sourced from
small, local growers, farmers, wineries (for the wine infused truffles)
and breweries (for the beer brittle), located in the San Joaquin and
Santa Ynez Valleys. Each chocolate piece is painstakingly hand
dipped, using all natural ingredients with no preservatives. Quality
speaks for itself, in fact, the English Toffee has won the Peoples
Choice award three years running.

San Antonio Winery Nominated for Winery of the Year by Wine Enthusiast Magazine
On the cusp of its 100th anniversary, Riboli Family Wine Estates
founding winery is only one of five wineries in the United States to
be nominated for this prestigious award.
Riboli Family Wine Estates is proud to announce its founding
winery, San Antonio Winery, which was established in 1917, has
been nominated for the 2016 American Winery of the Year Award
by Wine Enthusiast.
In the nomination, Wine Enthusiast cites San Antonios creativity,
the Riboli familys rich history and calls it a leader on the forefront
of California winegrowing and winemaking.
My entire family is deeply honored to be nominated for
American Winery of the Year, says fourth-generation family
Winemaker, Anthony Riboli. I am especially excited since the
nomination occurred on my grandfathers 95th birthday! This
nomination is especially timely and significant for us since San
Antonio Winery will celebrate its 100th anniversary in 2017.
Founded in Los Angles in 1917, the Riboli family survived
Prohibition by making sacramental wine, and as a result San
Antonio continues to be the only fully operational winery in the
metropolis. This same innovation and vision is what allowed the
family to see the world-class potential in Paso Robles and Monterey,
where they have been sourcing grapes and establishing vineyards
since the 1980s.
Just recently, Riboli Family Wine Estates celebrated the Grand
Opening of its new environmentally-friendly winery in Paso Robles,
which will serve as the production home for the familys portfolio
including San Antonio Winery, San Simeon, Maddalena, Opaque,
and others.
We are tremendously proud of our Los Angeles roots, says
Anthony Riboli. And we are equally proud of growing our presence
in Paso Robles and Monterey. Our family has been committed
to these two burgeoning regions since the early 1980s, and we
work tirelessly to innovate both in the vineyards and with our
winemaking.

Alapay Cellars
Heavenly Wines from the Central Coast
Avila Beach, long known for being an oceanfront destination,
where the relaxation is key, has been the home for Alapay Cellars
since 2001. Owners Rebecca and Scott Remmenga founded Alapay
(which translates to heavenly or world-above in the Chumash
Native Americans Samala language) and set upon a course in
crafting limited-production wines which highlight the vast flavor
profiles of the vineyards of the Central Coast.
A visit to the Alapay Tasting Room offers guests an opportunity
to peruse the wide selection of whimsical wine gifts and accessories,
all while enjoying tastes of the winerys menu of wines. With more
than ten wines to choose from, guests can taste through the Limited
Release menu of seven wines or add on the Reserve wine tasting
which includes three additional wines.
A tasting experience at Alapay is an adventure of discovering the
terroir of the Central Coast wine growing appellations. The journey
includes both a 2014 Central Coast Chardonnay and a 2014 Bien
Bassi Vineyard
Throughout the years Sinor-LaVallee has sourced fruit from
many acclaimed vineyards such as Talley-Rincon, Byron and
Aubaine properties. With the commencement of vintage 2013,
all of the winerys offerings are derived from the estates Bassi
Vineyard. With its close proximity of 1.2 miles from the Pacific
Ocean, the Bassi Vineyard in Avila Valley is paradisiacal. A hilltop
seascape of San Luis Bay to the west welcomes the morning
coastal fog as it casts its maritime influence, combined with
oceanic soils to tell a story of the land -- rich in history, with
viticulture influences which result in complex wines that intrigue
and delight with their layers of aromas and taste, inviting you to
Tasting Experience
The Sinor-LaVallee Tasting Room is located in picturesque
Avila Beach, a short one block from the beach. With its sunny
location and panoramic view, the tasting room is the perfect
sojourn for wine enthusiasts. An impressive selection of wines
by-the-glass or a $10 Tasting Flight of the winerys White label,
Black (Reserve) label and SLO Estate series are available, along
with a limited quantity of library selections. Wines include a
Chardonnay, Albario, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, Syrah and Cuvee.

n the southern end of the Central Coast appellation, lies Santa Barbara Countys historic
wine growing region. The first vineyard production in these rolling coastal hills dates back to
1782, when Junipero Serra planted vines on Mission land. About a hundred years later, there
was 260 acres of luscious vineyards and seventeen winemakers in Santa Barbara County. Sadly,
the Prohibition Era destroyed many of these historic vineyard sites and mostly put an end to
winemaking in the regionas was the case in many of the beautiful winegrowing regions across
the state. With that being said, the spirit and passion for winemaking never left Santa Barbara
County, and this wine growing region is alive and well today. Talented winemakers are producing
outstanding and pure terroir driven wines from the five American Viticultural Areas (AVAs), planted
mostly to Burgundian, Rhne and Bordeaux grape varieties.
Although the movie Sideways is said to have put San Barbara Countys wine growing region on
the map in 2004, especially the Santa Maria Valley AVA, it is the high quality of the wine across
the county that has continued to uphold this bountiful regions reputation. Sprawling vineyards
and gently rolling hills create a picturesque scene for visitors and locals alike, who visit the many
wineries, tasting rooms and wine bars in the area. In the five AVAs, wine tasters will find a nice
range of wine styles amongst the Burgundian, Rhone and Bordeaux varietals that are produced.
In the more northern region, cool climate Burgundian varietals reign, such as Pinot Noir and
Chardonnay, due to the maritime influence. This ensures a long temperate growing season which
the Burgundian varietals crave. With ample amount of sunlight, the grapes ripen very slowly
perfect for producing terroir driven wines with pure varietal characteristics. In the southern region,
there is more of a diurnal shift with warmer nights and cooler days. This area sees less fog and has
different soil types than what is found closer to the coast. The Bordeaux and Rhine varieties flourish
in this warmer climate and the sandy soils with limestone and chalk impart a wonderfully desirable
minerality in the wines.
The wineries in Santa Barbara County boast a concentration of incredibly passionate and talented
winemakers; join them year round at their many events, celebrations and festivals, as well as in
their tasting rooms.

The Foxen Canyon Wine Trail
A Road of Definition
BLOSSER
Every wine region has that one specific place, an area that clearly
defines the whole of the region in terms of how it best expresses
and interprets the wine. In Santa Barbara County that wine region
is Foxen Canyon. The Foxen Canyon Wine Trail is home to 15
tasting rooms along its languid path, all of which are flanked by
row upon row of vineyards, which is one of the reasons people
flock here, to get the full wine country experience.
But unlike other wine trails, Foxen Canyon is still agriculture
driven. You wont find any stores, gas stations, restaurants or
shopping. What you will find are bucolic lazy roads which
undulate into flat valleys and ascends to hilltops where the views
of open land, roaming cattle, quail and turkey vultures, verdant
vineyards, mature oak trees and blue skies beckon; a postcard to
the past of what California used to be like. The beans and barley
plantings of older times have been replaced by grapevines but
there

are still pockets of bell peppers and other row crops along MAIN

Dragonette Cellars
A Committed Triumvirate
In 2005, brothers John and Steve Dragonnette, along with their
close friend Brandon Sparks-Gillis, wine geeks extraordinaire,
founded Dragonette Cellars. Santa Barbara County was their
destination, with a vision and commitment to produce the finest
wines, reflective of the diverse terroir, giving special attention to
farming practices and care of the land. Their success is evident by
the wines produced, the ratings and awards they have received and
validated by their loyal followers, which is ultimately the true test
of success.
A Simple Philosophy
The beauty of their wines is mirrored in the simplicity of their
philosophy, we are wine growers, not winemakers say Steve
Dragonette, who coaxes the grapes to produce all they can to echo
the characteristics of the individual varietal, clone and plot of land
they come from.
In their quest and commitment to produce only the best,
Dragonette Cellars sources from the premier vineyards in the
area. Fruit is purchased from vineyards such as Vogelzang and
Grassini Family Vineyards (within the Happy Canyon AVA for
their Sauvignon Blanc), Fiddlestix, John Sebastiano, Radian and
Stolpman, among others. The dedication to quality, achieved
through a devotion to the planted vine is paramount. First, the

J. Ludlow Vineyard
Small Production and Dedication to Craft
J Ludlow Vineyard, up in the idyllic Los Olivos area, is the home
away from home for owners Allan and Jane Jones. Originally from
Cardiff, Wales, the couple fell in love with the Santa Ynez Valley
during one of their many trips to California. Stumbling upon a
beautiful ranch in Happy Canyon, they quickly developed an
interest in wine, purchasing Westerly Stud Farm in 2007. Keeping
production small, their dedication to their craft is evident by their
numerous awards and recent accolades.
Looking Ahead
In the near future, J Ludlow plans to plant more than 80 acres
of their grapes, focusing predominately on Bordeaux varietals of
Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc. When choosing
varietals, they wanted wines that would highlight varietals

winemaker, with Kyles help Dan was able to procure the services of
Mikael Sigouin of Kaena Wine, Mikael is well known in California
as well as his native Hawaii for the quality of his wines. He is
affectionately known by his peers and fans as The Grenache King.
The interesting thing about this story is that back in 1999 and 2000
when Casa Cassara wines were made at the Kahn Winerys custom
crush facility in Buellton, Mikael worked there, so this is not the
first time he has been involved with Casa Cassara Wines. Dan and
Bridget are excited to begin this new chapter in the story of Casa
Cassara Winery and Vineyards.
Dan Cassaras top recommendations include the 2012 Estate
Pinot Noir; the wine opens up with bright, fresh fruit and finishes
with a hint of toasted oak-a true representation of Casa Cassara.
Additionally the 2014 Chardonnay from Vernas Vineyard in Los
Alamos is perfect for summer; soft, well rounded, bright, aromatic
and very clean, this wine is a pure expression of Chardonnay. The
other notable white wine on the menu is a beautiful

Kalyra Winery
Nestled among hundreds of acres of rolling vineyards is
the original Kalyra Winery. With some of the most sweeping
views in the Santa Barbara wine country, Kalyra Winery offers
a laid-back beachcombers vibe to its tasting room and gift
shop. Winemaker, Mike Brown, an Australian who fell in love
with California, is known far and wide for his amazingly broad
selection of wines which includes red/white and dessert wines as
well as sparkling wine and his newest evolution of wine 239
(a wine mixer like no other). Mike Browns flair is blending the
best of Santa Barbara varietals with Australia, Portugal, France
and Spain to produce value priced wines that wine aficionados
of all levels can enjoy.
Youll be served from the bar featured in the Sideways movie
and enjoy browsing the extensive Kalyra Boutique, located next
to the tasting room. Its full length porch and side lawn offer a
fantastic, tranquil picnic spot for your full tasting day as well.
Kalyra loves dogs and while they cannot be inside the tasting
room, you are welcome to bring leashed dogs on our porch or side
lawn during your visit.
Open seven days, Kalyra is a working vineyard, so lots to see
and do throughout the year, especially during the harvest season in
October. Kalyras Grape Stomp event (just one of many events this
vineyard hosts) has been voted one of the best in the Central Coast
and is a not to be missed event for those who want to experience
