W INE GRAPE CLUSTER is picked In a Cal i forn ia vineyard ( fv\ax Yavno photo A ll pic tures court esy of the Wine Inst itute )

California's Vintage Product About the time man was learning to use

bronze, 5,500 years ago, he also was learning to cultivate grapes for food. He soon discovered that the fermented juice of the grape was good to drink as well.

From Asia Minor, the science of vita­culture spread east to Asia and north and west to the Mediterranean states. Phoeni­cians carried vines to France about 600 B.C. and the Romans planted vineyards in the Rhine Valley before the birth of Christ.

To these early civilizations, wine repre­sented a safe and healthful beverage, pro­viding calories and vitamins at a time when food was scarce and not always of good Quality. It offered relaxation and a very real relief from pain.

Spaniards Brought Vines The Spaniards who traveled to the New

\\Torld brought vines to Mt"xico and north into California. Mission padres planted the first vines in California at San Diego in 1769.

European grape cuttings thrived in the area around the San Francisco Bay and the San Joaquin Valley. although they did not in harsher climates of the country. However, in most sections of the East, Midwest and Pacific Northwest. native "American" grapes grew wild and are to­day the basis for the 15 per cent of all wine produced in the United States which does not come from California.

Laborers no longer carry grapes in wicker baskets out of the vineyards and crush them underfoot. Modern vintners have replaced these romantic trappings with more efficient and sanitary trucks, mobile trailers and power-operated crush­ers. This means higher Quality wines as fresh grapes can be rushed from the vine

to the winery where they are inspected, weighed and moved down a conveyor belt into the crusher within hours after pick­ing.

Crusher-stemmers such as the Italian­developed "Garolla" are so gentle that grape seeds remain unbroken. The GaroBa receives grapes in a large, coarsely-per­forated horizontal roller. Paddles revolve within the cylinder, crushing grapes by impact and sending stems out an opening in the end of the machine.

the crusher. This "must"- fresh juice, sometimes with grape skins, seeds and pulp - then is pumped to fermenting tanks .

Most winemakers prefer to aid wild yeasts in the dust-like "bloom" covering the skins of ripe grapes with a pure starter yeast to promote clean, uniform fermentation . Alcoholic content depends on the amount of natural g rape sugar in the "must" and whether the wine is a l­lowed to ferment all of its sugar . If sweet­ness is desired, fermentation is halted whi le some sugar remains . Color depends on whether, and for how long. juice is fermented with the pigment-bearing skins, since the juice of mos t grapes has little or no color.

Va ts, Tanks and Ovals Wine is fermented in vats, tanks or

ovals. The traditional vats are open struc­tures of wood or concrete holding up to about 60,000 gallons of "must." Covered tanks, larger and deeper than vats. have become popular with some of the larger wineries. Ovals - closed wooden casks holding up to 3,000 gallons - still are used to ferment small batches of white wines.

Fermentation genera tes hea t and fre­Quently requires art ificial cooling to guard against "st icking" or prematurely stopping the fermenting cycle. Wine usually is cooled by running water through coils inside the fermenter or within its walls. Sometimes the wine itself is ru n through cooling coils, then returned to its fermenting container.

Fermenting seldom takes more than one to two weeks so most California wines - harvested in September and October-

are well into the aging process in the year of their vintage. After fermentation, they are racked. fined, blended, aged in the wood, bottled and further aged in the bottle.

Racking is simply drawing off the spent yeasts and lees (grape solid s) which have settled to the bottom of the ferment ing tank or vat. Fining is clarification with gelatin or another agent to absorb and coagulate suspended material. All wines

continue to "throw" additional sediment during aging and many vintners repeat the racking process several times before bot­tling the wine.

Many red wines age a year or two in redwood tanks of various sizes or in lined metal or concrete containers. Some tradi­tional winemakers use wooden cooperage for the entire aging process. White dinner wines are aged in less time and aging in wood often is bypassed.

Blending at Any Time Blending can take place any time before

bottling - in the vineyard when different varieties of wine grapes are planted side by side, at the crush, soon after fermenta­tion or when wines are matured.

Champagne and other sparkling wines have a much different aging cycle in which a second fermentation is unique.

Sherries differ from other wines in that most of their flavor and fragrance derive from the methods of processing following fermentation. California sherry is charac­terized by it s "nutty" flavor, most often ob tained by "baking" or aging at 100 to 140 degrees F. Some wineries use oak chips in the wine during baking to give a distinctive flavor.

Closely Guarded Secret Vermouths and other special-natural

wines form a separate class in that their distinctive flavors come from the addition of various herbs and natural flavors. Exact recipes fo r vermouth are among the most

close ly guarded secrets of winemakers everywhere who may use as many as 50 different herbs in arriving at the precise ba lance of flavors desired.

As wine is the only beverage that con­tinues to improve after bottling, this second-stage aging takes on importance comparable to the first stage. Aging cus­tomarily is done with the bottles il1' bins and lying on their sides to keep corks moist and airtight at about 55 degrees F. Caves hewn from California hillsides are perfect resting places for maturing wines although air-conditioned aging rooms above ground are a modern dt:velopment.

The final operations performed at the winery are labeling and packaging. Aut~­matic machines have largely taken over these chores - the last steps before an annual two-thirds billion bottles of Cali­fornia wines are shipped out of the state's more than 230 bonded wineries.

San Martin-A Winemaker's Dream Come True The old country dream of an Italian

fruit gr9wer came true in America. Bruno Filice was this man with a dream who came to America from Southern Italy and se ttled in San Martin (San Mar-teen), By 1892 he had an established winery and acres of good, rich soil filled with arbors of grapes. He brought the cuttings from Italy and with patience and care filled the land around the Santa Clara Valley with vineyards and produced the fine San Mar­tin wines.

Bruno Filice had five sons who even­tually took over management of the winery and now the grandsons are in the process of assuming responsibility. The San Mar­tin "Vinery is a family tradition and of the few real family wineries left, it is the most famous.

A Lesson on Wine The San Martin Winery with its 1,850

acres of vineyards and fruits is located in Santa Clara and San Benito counties. From these grapes and fruits, 41 fine wines and champagnes are produced. The family is proud of it s wines and their knowledge of wines and enjoys sharing this with the public. Traditionally, a visitor to a winery gets a tour of the winery and then a glass of the winery's spec ialty or the choice of the visitor himself. A visitor to the tast­ing rooms at the San Martin Winery in San Martin o r any of its three branches­in Monterey, in San Jose, or on Fisher­man's Wharf in San Francisco - however, gets Quite a different treatment; one could almost call it a lesson on wines and champagnes.

The tasting room in Monterey is on Municipal Wharf #2 right below the Jolly Rogue Restaurant. The host provides a menu of some 41 wines which lists the prices and also has room for one's own

comments about the wines tasted. The wines are categorized into white wines, rose wines, red wines, champagne and sparkling wines, vermouths, castlewood aged wines, fruit and berry wines and spe­cialties. A taste of at least one wine in each category is given in a carefully planned order to ensurc the true flavor of each. Sweet things dull the taste buds and if the sweet wines were drunk first, the taste of the other wines would not be as clear and distinct.

Another trick the host employs is just giving a "thimble full" of the wine, s ince if one drinks too much of one wine, that will be all he will taste for the rest of the afternoon. During the tasting, the host ex­plains what kind of wine it is-swee t, mel­low or dry (the opposite of sweet); what grape, grapes or fruit goes into the wine; when it is traditionally served; and with which type of meats. For cxample white wines are se rved mainly with white meat, red wines with red meat and spicy foods,

All the San Martin label wines a fC made from the grapes o r fruit grown in their vineyards. They are natural wines with no artificial sweeteners added. Even their berry and fruit wines a re natural. U sua lly these wines are made with a g r?!",p base and then artificial coloring, Aavoring a nd sweetening a rc added, or frozen fru it is used to make the wine, but not at the San 1hrtin Winery.

In acqui ring new lands, the Filice family often also acquired some type of fruit that was a lready o n the land. Instead of drying thi s fruit or using it in some other way, they experimented in making wines out of them. O ne such experiment was with the apr icot. As a trial run they made some Aprivette (apricot wine) and in three weeks sold a year 's supply . It is now one of their best sellers. At the moment they are working with peaches and apples. These are all natural juices of the fruit s and taste li ke nectars.

Malvasia Bianca Their specialty wine is another original

called Malvasia Bianca. T houg h others make the Malvasia, San Martin's is dif­ferent in tha t it is a mellow, white table wine, rather than a dessert wine. The type of grape used orig inally came from Greece, but in California thi s grape had become sweeter. The wine it self smells like orange blossoms and tastes like the grape's own nectar. It is also the base from which Gran Spumate Malvasia Champagne is made. This champagne is sem i-sweet and lsually se rved with desse rts.

Another specialty of the w inery is Mokka Lau whose base is m ade from the Konna coffee bean, an import from Hawaii. T his coffee flavored dessert wine can also

Pottery with the Look of Jade This extreme heat fires the greenware to a pottery hardness. Now it is bisque pot­tery, a blinding-bright white, and must be cooled overnight. Nex t the glaze is ap­plied. Small items such as ash trays are dipped in a bowl of a muddy looking mix­ture (special-Marzi-jade g laze) and fired a second time. Larger articles, including salad bowls and vases, must be brushed with the glaze before the second firing.

Looking for a hand-crafted seed neck­lace, an original bas-relief, a jade tile trim for your swimming pool, or even a jade bird bath? Monterey Pottery Shop of Del Fino Place in Carmel Valley has it . . . and more.

The proprietors, Rudi Marzi and his wife Nancy, specialize in Monterey Jade pottery. This unique and famous pottery reRects the Monterey Penin sula Jade, a semi-precious stone found along the Southern Coast of Monterey County. The jade stone seems to "capture the essence of the turbulent ocean washing over a rocky coast" in the movement of its colors. These vivid blues and greens in­spired Rudi Marzi to produce a glaze mixture for his pottery that simulates the colors and movements of the jade stone.

When it is set, the piece is "greenware" and ready to be scraped, cleaned and smoothed before "bisque" fired for eigh t hours at temperatures up to 2000 degrees F.

It is during the application of the g laze that the creativity and temperament of the artist enter the process, determining the Row of color, the amount of blues and

Temperatures in the kiln are brought up slowly and carefully to insure the rich depth of color in each piece. Finally, a thorough inspection completes the en tire process which has spanned five days.

Seven people, including Rudi and Nancy Marzi, carry out the produc tion, display and sale of the pottery in the studio.

The jade pieces include ashtrays, bowls, candlest icks, vases, hot plates and hand­crafted bird baths. Exciting and beaut iful colors in bar, kitchen, ba throom or dress­ing room jade sinks are displayed with matching jade tiles.

THE CLASSMATE

Rudi MaTzi was an industrial design stu­dent at the California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland when he md Nancy, the future Mrs. Marzi. Bot h native San Franciscans, they moved to Hawaii for a year when Rudi developed his interest in ceramics. On returning to the mainland, he chose to sett le in lovely Carmel Valley and began his unusual Monterey Jade Pottery which "has become synonymous with the Monterey Peninsula." Eight years have gone by since he established his first shop. His expanding operations have taken him into a new and large studio, con­structed three years ago and three times the size of the earlier shop.

In their Valley home, the basement is another pottery studio complete with pot-

ter's wheel and oven for firing. The little Manis, a son and daughter who are 10 and 6 ye.ars old, occasionally get their fingers in the clay. Perhaps more talent in the family will emerge from these putter­ings in the pottery, Nancy hopes.

It is here in the basement studio that the wheel work on original art pieces is done. The distinguished gray haired and bearded Marzi thumps several pieces of pottery to illustrate the clear fine tones found in the ring of the pottery, one of the ways to judge fine quality in some pieces.

Marzi also labors in his home studio on bas-reliefs, a very slow and intricate pro­cess which involves tne slight projection of figures from a background. Often these are done on special order to the specifica­tions of a customer. Some are displayed at the studio.

The Monterey Pottery Shop, at present, displays crafts of nine different contributors Among the items are hand-crafted seed jewelry, metal earrings, mobiles, hand­made ties, free-blown glass, candles and works of other potters.

Visitors are welcome to browse among the crafts produced and found at the studio, and perhaps select from them gifts reminiscent of the Monterey Penin­sula. The scenic trip to Monterey Pottery Shop is a rewarding experience, made especially enjoyable by the delightful and warm couple, Rudi and Nancy Marzi.

The excitement of flying a plane lies in almost all of us today, perhaps because we are living in the space age where man can blast-off from Cape Kennedy, orbit the moon, and return with such accuracy that they rival the efficiency of even the local airline.

If you are interested in learning to fly , or renting a plane if you already own a private pilot's license. it is all easily ac­complished through the Monterey Navy Flying Club. All military personnel, their dependents, and the staff of the Naval Postgraduate School are eligible to join the club started here in 1963. Other Navy Flying Clubs have been in existence since 1959 and they continue to grow with the interest in flying.

The :Monterey Navy Flying Club meets monthly on the second Tuesday in the El Rancho Room of the Officer s' Club. LCDR N. H. Mayo, president, handles business and occasionally introduces guest speakers. Other officers include the opera­tions officer. Professor Gary Tuck; secre­tary, Peg Heisman; treasurer, Jack Allwardt; and maintenance officer, Joe Rabon.

The club has so much to offe1o- flying lessons, excellent flying experience, planes for rent (see you in Las Vegas) and most of all, a fine group of new friends. Ned Mayo will be happy to give you further information. His phone number is 375-06 13.-Sharon Cornell

With the holidays over, I'm sure every­one has no t on ly reached the saturation point on a ll those yummy goodies, but has a lso found themselves cart ing around a few unwanted pounds! The holidays have a way of creeping up on us, but with a little bit of perseverance and "will power," we can shed this unwanted avoirdupois, and in a few weeks time be­g in to feel a nd look like a new person.

One final thought from a man who found what he needed to know about weight control, "Finding the diet that works for you is like having your own buried treasure. You always know where it's at!"

H ere is the magic diet menu from the Mayo Clinic, but firs t let me remind you that different diets work differently on different people. What works for you, may no t work for your neighbor. My ob­ject is not so much to g ive you a diet, but to get you motivated and started in the right direction for the New Year! - Shari Walker

MAGIC MENU FROM MAYO CLINIC

Breakfast Half grapefruit or unsweetened grape­

fruit juice.

9-9 Monday, Thursday, Friday 9-6 Other Days

THE CLASSMATE

Two eggs, any style, with two slices of bacon, minimum. (12 slices if you wish.)

Lunch Half g rapefruit. Meat - any type, any amount. Salad, as much as you can cat with any

Vegetables, any type, any amount. Coffee or tea.

Bedtime Snack Tomato juice or skimmed milk. 1. At each mea l you must eat until you

can't eat any more. 2. Don't el iminate anything. Don't skip

bacon or sa lad with their designated meals. It is this condition that burns up ac­cumulated fat.

3. The grapefru it is important because it acts as a catalyst that starts the fat burning process.

4. Cut clown on coffee. It affects the in­sulin balance that hinder s the burning pro­cess. Limit yourself to one cup per meal.

5. No eating between meals. If you eat this combination of foods suggested until

Page Eleven

you are stuffed, you won't be hungry be­tween meals.

6. Note that this diet eliminates sugar and starches which form liquids, which form fat. Fat does not form fat. It helps burn it up. You can fry eggs in butter and use butter generous ly in your vegetables.

7. Eat until you are stuffed and force yourself to eat more. The more you eat properly combined food, the more you lose.

YOU CAN LOSE 10 POUNDS IN 10 DAYS. THERE WILL BE NO WEIGHT LOSS THE FIRST FOUR DA YS, BUT YOU WILL SUDDENLY D IW P FIVE POUNDS ON THE FIFTH DAY. THEREAFTER YOU LOSE ONE POUND A DAY UNTIL THE 10th DAY. THEREAFTER YOU LOSE ONE AND A HALF POUNDS EVERY TWO DAYS.

Coast Guard Wives The holiday season held numerous fes­

tive events for Coast Guard families in the Monterey area. The annual children's Christmas party wa's attended by families from all the Coast Guard units on the Peninsula. Santa distributed gifts to all the children and listened to Christmas wishes with children on his knee while pictures were taken. Refreshments made by the wives' club and punch furnished by the USCGC LAMAR were served.

Small cocktail parties and dinners in­creased the holiday spirit and joy for Coast Guard couples. Some couples en­joyed Christmas with their families at their home in the Monterey area. Several other couples visited the East coast to spend the holidays with family and friends.

Although the regular bridge meeting was cancelled in December the January bridge night was held as scheduled at the home of Dottie Matteson.
