I enjoy visiting wineries and learning as much as I can about the

wines, the winemaker and the history of the winery. In addition, the

vineyard in the peak of the growing season – June through August –

is a beautiful sight with clusters of red and green grapes under bright

green leaves. Winery tasting rooms are as varied as the wines

themselves and are always welcoming, whether it’s a large and lavish

room or simply a folding table among the barrels in a storage facility.

A winery experience also is an opportunity to take a winery tour

or talk to the people who are pouring the wines for tasting. This is a

chance to learn something about their wines. Whether or not you

like the wine, the time spent in a tasting room or winery is a time

for discovery and learning. You should feel free to ask questions like

“Is this wine filtered or unfiltered?” or “Does the winery sourcegrapes from outside its own property or are the grapes estate-

grown?” I’m always curious to know how many cases of wine are

produced and how long the wines are aged before they are releas

to the public.

I also like hearing about the history of a winery and how its

owner became involved in the wine business. It’s surprising how

many winery owners started their professional careers in areas

completely outside the wine industry. In almost every case it was

deep passion for wine that motivated them.

Maybe the best part of the winery experience is breathing in t

aroma of a winery during the time of harvest, from September to

November, when tons of just-picked grapes are nearby, some

already in the process of fermentation. It’s a sweet smell of fresh

picked fruit mixed with notes of great expectations for a newvintage.

BY JOSH STEIN

It seems like at least one in every three conversations I have with

people in the wine trade, whatever the ostensible reason for the chat

was, ends up discussing cork and its alternatives. With more than

four billion bottles domestically purchased last year, you’d think this

would be a settled issue, but, alas, the inverse is true: the more wine

we make and sell, the more options of bottle enclosures we have, not

less, and some packaging solutions don’t even involve bottles or

enclosures as we normally think of them at all!

Cork for an enclosure rose naturally enough given it’s the bark of

different species of oak trees, and oak is one of the traditional

woods for barrel staves, so it makes sense to get the most out of

what’s already being used; farmers are well known for frugality and

lack of waste. What is not so well known is that it takes almost

three decades of growth and several bark harvests, separated by

seven years or more, before the first true harvesting of premium

cork-level material is possible. Cork is one hundred percent natural,

but it’s long lag time makes it less than ideal in today’s global,

accelerated wine world.

Thus have evolved a number of alternatives to the pure, grade

cork, which, not incidentally, can run most of a dollar each even

when purchasing large volumes. The simplest of these other optio

involve different forms of the same natural cork but in combinatio

with various stabilizers to allow smaller pieces of cork to be formed

into the standard “wine cork” shape. Known as technical or

agglomerated corks, these provide an affordable solution which giv

most of the same oxygen transmission and enclosure performance

a much more affordable cost.

A middle ground between these two comes by way of the spark

wine producer, whose corks require a special shape and performan

because of the extra pressure from bottle fermentation; their most

common cork uses two disks of natural cork on the “stalk” of the

mushroom with agglomerated technical cork making up the “cap”

the remainder. The still wine’s “twin top” does the same thing, bu

with a disk on both ends and technical cork sandwiched between

Maintaining the shape but substituting alternate materials entirely

a vast range of wholely artificial extruded “corks” made of various

food grade plastics and silicons.

Moving away from a wine cork shape altogether takes us to the

twist top, more formally known as the Stelvin enclosure; a liner cabe employed to precisely control the oxygen transmission rate, bu

there is no head-turning thunk of the pulled cork. There is also th

“Zork,” which combines artificial materials with an unwrapping

process, and glass stoppers, which work best as a cork stopper

replacement except for one thing: the O-ring necessary to mate th

glass stopper with the glass bottle is the crucial element in how

effective the stopper is.

As you can see, while the common wisdom is that once the gra

are in and the aging in barrel is done all the problems are over, the

reality is that until the wine is in your mouth, there are decisions t

make and potential problems to avoid every step along the way. Nenclosure solves all the problems, and the best option, the traditio

all-cork cork, is not inexpensive; there are lots of more affordable

alternatives, but each lacks something, making it less than ideal as

replacement. Keep that in mnd the next time you reach for your

opener and enjoy!

ERiC Ross WiNERY A treasure nestled in the Valley of the Moo

BY DENISE OLLIFFE

Eric Ross Winery’s tasting room is sheltered in the fabled Valley of t

Moon in Glen Ellen, where famed author, Jack London, resided in the

early 1900s. To this day, Glen Ellen remains the tranquil setting Londo

reflected on over a century ago, now featuring local wineries and stella

restaurants. It’s a daytrip destination for wine lovers, foodies, history

buffs and nature lovers – and Eric Ross Winery is a must-stop

destination.

Han yur ha an ay awhle

The charmingly weathered exterior of Eric Ross Winery’s tasting roo

is adorned by its logo – a plucky rooster that adorns the wine label (as

about the amusing story behind it). When guests step inside the casua

tasting room, there’s an immediate sense of yesteryear hospitality and

warmth. While sipping wine at the hand-crafted zinc and oak barrel

tasting bar, frequent visitor Corene Kendrick says, “We’ve been wine c

members for three years. It’s like hanging out in your best friend’s livinroom, getting to tell dumb jokes (with tasting room managers Dennis

and Diane Mitchell), while enjoying great wine. It’s very casual and

comfortable here.”

Eye-catching photography by winemaker and proprietor Eric Luse

former photojournalist for the San Francisco Chronicle) enhances the

space, thoughtfully depicting life on a working vineyard. An inviting

seating area warmed by a wood-burning stove, adds to this easygoing

countryside tasting room, where earthy wines compliment the

surroundings.

Winemaker Eric Luse believes

balanced fruit is the star of his

On the secret to wine tasting,

Eric says, “Ultimately, at the end

gRANt HERmANNBennett Lane Winery BY JOSH STEIN

Big reds can sometimes mean lots of pretense, posturing, and extre

pricing, resulting in an emphasis on things which take away from sim

enjoying wine and the people wo have produced it. Happily, there is

antidote to such a situation, and it’s name is Bennett Lane, owned by

Randy and Lisa Lynch, who have only been in the wine business for adecade, but whose wines have made quite an impact throughout the

wine world. These folks know Cabernet in a few short years like few

others ever have in the Valley, and they’ve done so without pricing th

wines through the roof or putting on airs in the process. These may b

relatively new folks to Napa, but that doesn’t mean they’re “new Napa

you know what I mean.

Grant Hermann first joined Bennett Lane in 2005 as Cellar Master

line with the Lynches’ guiding philosophy, Grant’s focus at Bennett La

is to produce wines of distinction from special vineyards throughout

Valley. And, as one might expect, the way to do this is to be a local w

knows the Valley as his birthright. Raised in Yountville and Napa,

Grant – who now works with some of Napa’s top vineyards at

Bennett Lane – was also a part-time firefighter in the town of

Calistoga, where he lives with his family.

Grant gained early vineyard experience on his family’s one-acre

parcel of Chardonnay in Yountville and opted for the way almostValley winemakers learned in the old days: “I’m a hands-on

winemaker and have been fortunate to align myself with great

mentors over the years. I truly enjoy being intimately involved in

the transition of grape to wine,” he says. In 1990, he took a job as

a harvest worker and then subsequently spent over a decade

working his way upwards in many capacities, learning the

importance of sourcing local fruit and attention to detail; he notes

he was “thrilled” to have the opportunity to get his “hands purple”

when he joined the team at Bennett Lane.

The best way to enjoy Benntt Lane wines is at the tasting room

and winery, which is positioned at the dove-tailing “wedge” of th

eastern Vaca and western Mayacamas at the top of the Valley. Th

combination of soil, exposure and breeze makes about as perfect

spot for wine as exists anywhere on the planet, and the Cabernet

vines produce wines that sell out over and over again. Oh, andthose vines have helped Bennett lane produce thirty-four wines

scoring 90+ points in less than a decade. There’s no pretense,

though, just a focus on great wines and relaxation.

Do yourself a favor and head to the top of the Valley for wines

unlike anyone else’s produced by a Napa local who’s learned to d

the “Old Napa” way. Bennett Lane’s the place for you if you wan

vineyard-driven releases without the pomp and circumstance.

Enjoy!

presence in the culinary world and is currently

working on a cookbook, new media projects andleading cooking demonstrations at prestigious food

and wine festivals around the country. Since she was

raised in Caracas, Venezuela and chooses a fit lifestyle,

her dishes are loaded with flavor while still being

nutritious.

This lamb recipe is a perfect introduction to the

long anticipated grilling season and better yet, it’s

healthy and delicious. While lamb hasn’t graced my

barbecue grill, these succulent lamb skewers paired

with the Judd’s Hill 2009 Cabernet Franc will make a

wonderful addition for the upcoming season. Themarinade adds warmth and character to the lamb

while the beautiful acidity from the sauce rounds out

the entire dish. The 2009 Judd’s Hill Cabernet Franc

has an intensely deep ruby color and is so pronounced

that it is the perfect complement to this meal. The

complex nose offers aromas of blueberry, boysenberry,

violets, crushed sage, peppercorn and currants. Silky

smooth tannins give way to lush mouthwatering

flavors of star anise, strawberry, blackberry, chocolate

covered espresso beans and black tea. The finish is

lingering with freshly cut vanilla bean, toffee and

coffee. This 100% Cabernet Franc is jam packed with

complexity, richness and depth that opens the doors to

an overabundance of culinary creations.

Judd’s Hill Winery is located right off the Silverado

Trail from downtown Napa. Their tasting room is open

daily from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. by advance appointment

so be sure to call ahead, (707) 255-2332. For more

CoNCiERgE Q & A: What are your personal favorites?

Remember: Please sip responsibly! Plan to taste at no more than three wineries based on these recommendations.

NANCY BoERUmCONCIERGE, MACARTHUR PLACE INN & SPA

WCtW: What is your favorite varietal?

NB: For a long time now, my favorite varietal has

been Pinot Noir, and I suspect this is not likely to

change! Pinot is a wine that is, with a few

exceptions, very food friendly. What’s even better

is it’s so available here in Sonoma and we have the

ideal climate to grow this somewhat complex

varietal, whether it be nearby in the Carneros or

further away in the Sonoma Coast and the RussianRiver areas. Both have the cool marine climate that

this grape requires as its skin is too thin for our

hot valley sun. The cooler the site, the longer the

growing season which gives this grape a better

chance to attain overall structure and mature

tannins. I love the “Pinot Places,” as I call them, in

the Carneros: Saintsbury, Acacia, Etude and

Adastra – where you can enjoy a genuinely

personal experience with tasting room staff just

10-15 minutes away from MacArthur Place. The

scenery and views provide a gorgeous backdrop

for a wine tasting experience.

North of us on Highway 12 in Glen Ellen, there is

a new tasting room, Talisman, that has the most

amazing single-vineyard Pinots! Try the side-by-

side tasting there and you’ll be hooked. I don’t

know which I liked better, the seductive nose or

the elgant flavors on each! From the bright ruby

hue to the earthy minerality to the silky

mouthfeel – the hallmark of a well-crafted Pinot

Noir – I can’t think of a better way to end the day

in wine country than with a glass of this alluring

varietal.

Come and Enjoy the Important Things in Life: Friends – Family – Hospitality!

BY MONICA L. DASHWOOD

Surround yourself in the beauty that is Monticello Vineyards, locate

on Big Ranch Road between Highway 29 and Silverado Trail in the hea

of Napa Valley. Come and experience the full glory of Monticello’s awar

winning, small-lot wines, exquisite rose gardens and historical

architecture – the Jefferson House built in honor of Thomas Jefferson, a

great wine and food enthusiast himself.

Jay Corley, the founder of Monticello Vineyards, shares many passio

with Mr. Jefferson – both were farmers, both grew estate grapes on theiproperty and both believed good food, fine wine and hospitality were,

and are, necessities to living a good life.

At Monticello Vineyards, you will understand the breadth and dept

Napa Valley in every vintage. Today, Jay’s sons, Kevin, Chris and Stephe

farm five vineyards in the Napa Valley – their Home Ranch Vineyard an

Knollwood Vineyard in the Oak Knoll District planted for Cabernet

Franc, Merlot, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Syrah vines and their State

Lane Vineyard in Yountville, Tietjen Vineyard in Rutherford and Yewell

Vineyard in St. Helena each planted for Cabernet Sauvignon. Since 196

when Jay Corley first envisioned Monticello Vineyards, the Corley fami

has grown, made and sold their wines with a gentle hand, mixed in wiperseverance and discipline, offering a total experience that is a reflectio

of their love for the land and wine.

Their rustic and welcoming tasting room, adorned with twinkling

white lights over their red barreled wine bar, offers the perfect setting to

sample their newly released wines, such as the 2011 Monticello Vineya

Estate Grown Chardonnay, 2010 Jefferson Cuvee Cabernet Sauvignon

2009 Corley Proprietary Red Wine. You can stop in without an

appointment and try a wide variety of wines. Their staff, knowledgeabl

and personable, takes pride in pouring their Estate Grown wines. Ther

you can sample four wines for just $15. Wine is also available by the gl

for your enjoyment in the garden or the courtyard.

For a more formal sit-down tasting affair, you may reserve the Jeffers

House Reserve Room by appointment for groups up to 16. You have

several choices of tastings experiences: Monticello Vineyard Wines, fou

for $25; Corley Reserve Wines and Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvigno

Wines, four for $35; or indulge in a wine and cheese pairing, four win

and a selection of four cheeses for $50. For group visits (17-30), you ca

taste three wines in the gardens or winery cellar for $20 per person.

You will be pleased to see how they have the standards that Mr.

Jefferson felt most important in life: Family – Friends – Hospitality!

Recipe by Erin Evenson, Brooklyn, N.Y.

It’s the number 7 subway train that takes

Evenson to indulge in her favorite crispy

Caramelized Green Curry Burger is her

tribute to this “culinary wonder,” with a sweet

BALLEtto viNEYARds & WiNERYBY SUE STRAIGHT, THE WINE WENCH

What do vegetable farming and owning a vineyard and winery have in common? Quite a l

actually, especially if your name is John Balletto.

In 1977, when other seventeen-year-olds were busy going to discos and listening to their ei

track players, John Balletto became a farmer. His father had recently passed away, so John took

the responsibility of supporting his family and with only $200 in his pocket (and the help of h

mother, Hazel), John started farming produce on the family’s five-acre ranch in Sebastopol. In

1981 John purchased his first ranch in Santa Rosa (now home to the winery) and within a few

years he became the largest vegetable farmer north of San Francisco.Balletto’s vegetable business was still going strong in 1998, but a couple of storms during th

spring ruined the vegetable crop. It was at this point that John Balletto started converting the

vegetable fields to vineyards (there were already existing vineyards on the home ranch in

Sebastopol, so conversion to vineyards seemed the logical way to go).

The Balletto family now owns and farms 600 acres of vineyards in the Russian River Valley,

they keep only 10% (the cream) of the resulting crop to carefully craft their own wines. The ot

90% of the grapes are sold to other wineries.

Let’s talk about the wines from Balletto Vineyards & Winery – their first commercial vintage

was in 2001. Now, over a decade later, the wines of Balletto are still going strong – consistently

garnering good press and winning multiple medals.

My personal impression of the wines was that they are all well balanced, elegant-yet-approachable and downright delicious! I tasted a handful of wines during my visit and the

following were my favorites -

2009 Gewürztraminer ($18): This wine is like Lucy Liu decked out in a tight white satin gow

walking through a greenhouse full of orchids – exotic, sexy and a tad sassy. The wine is super

aromatic, with abundant aromas and flavors of exotic spices, flowers and fruits, all wrapped u

a juicy, zippy mouthfeel. This one is almost sold out – you should get here quick before it’s go

2007 Zinfandel (sale price $16.80): Don’t let the vintage deter you – this is one gorgeous, spic

Zinfandel at a fantastic price! Alluring aromas of gingerbread, blackberry and peppery spice

After five years of hard work cementing the well-known fact that

local winemaker, Michael Muscardini, is a master of his trade,

Muscardini has opened his own tasting room in Kenwood. Formerly

sharing a tasting room with Ty Caton, Michael and his team, Jennifer

Kosko (tasting room manager), Laura Lujan (hospitality), and Alice

Schimm (office manager) have found a new home in the Red School

House at 9380 Sonoma Highway, just south of his previous tasting

room. The charming and much-loved schoolhouse was around in the

1860s when Abe Lincoln was president. Visitors will be thrilled to see

what is inside now!

With a large deck facing east toward the Mayacama Mountains,

you can taste the award-winning Italian varietals, and more, while

watching the sun rise and set. Picnic tables in the big back yard, will

welcome friends, family and their dogs. Inside the room you can

enjoy not only Michael’s great wine, but also local delicacies such as

Sondra Bernstein’s delicious jams, Bonnie Tempesta’s biscotti, the

finest Italian salami and of course, local cheeses with fresh bread.Guests will also be able to enjoy a rotating selection of artwork with

beautiful glass art by Stone Cohn and the featured artist this month,

Margaret Hatcher. If you are lucky, Michael and Beni, his loveable

94-pound golden retriever, will greet you at the door!

Combine Michael’s award-winning wines, in a beautiful setting

with great art and, of course, the friendly hospitality that he is know

for, and your idea of what a

tasting room should be like,

will be transformed.Muscardini Cellars Tasting

Room is located at 9380

Sonoma Highway in

Kenwood, CA 95452 and is

open daily from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. For more information, call (707

miCHAEL CoX Schug Carneros Estate Winery

BY MIKE HYLAND

Ever since the first grapes were planted in the Sonoma Valley in

the 1850s, every harvest has always been a crap shoot. Once the v

are in the ground, Mother Nature takes over and you never know

what you will come up with. That loud cheer that erupted from b

the grape growers and winemakers last fall was the culmination o

perhaps the best harvest in recent history in the Sonoma Valley.

“We all had just a great growing season in 2012,” said Michael

Cox, Sonoma native and winemaker at Schug Carneros Estate

Winery. “The Cabernet and Merlot are probably the best that I’ve

in at least five or six years. The Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc

also excellent with this harvest and our own Pinot Noir looksexceptional.”

Cox, who just completed his 25th harvest and 18th year at Sch

Carneros, is very serious about all of his tasks, one of which is alw

keeping an eye on the weather. “For the 2013 growing season, it i

little too soon to see how it will all shake out, but we had a good

of rain in November and December, and all that water was being

absorbed into the ground in January,” Cox says. “The cold mornin

we had in January are good for the vines and keeps them dorman

Hopefully, February and March will prove to be our rainy season

that rain water will last with the vines well into the summer.”

With 40 acres of their estate vineyards, Schug Carneros augme

their annual production with fruit from some of the more famousvineyards in Napa and Sonoma including Sangiacomo Tall Grass

El Novilliero Vineyards, Smith Vineyard (which is located very ne

downtown Sonoma), Rancho Salina, Atwood Ranch, Iund, Stage

Gulch and others.

At Schug, Cox manages all vineyard resources and grower

relations which he has overseen for the past 18 years. Following

single year at UCLA studying chemical engineering, he decided to

lean toward a new direction and pursue a career in the wine indu

garnering a degree in winemaking from UC Davis.

Since joining Schug, Cox has worked in every position in the

cellar over the years. His favorite task is sampling and assessing thwines, barrel by barrel, but his real strength is in the logistics of

winemaking. “Keeping all the pieces moving through the winery,

from grape to bottle, is an amazingly complex process,” says Cox.

“The fact that we can do so much at Schug with so little is a point

pride.”

Surrounded by estate vineyards, Schug Carneros Estate Winer

lies sheltered on a hillside five miles south of Sonoma. The winery

surrounded by sweeping views of the Carneros region and the

Sonoma Valley, and is located just north of San Francisco Bay.

tAstiNg Room oF tHE WEEK:

mAYo REsERvE RoomBY MIKE HYLAND

The Wall Street Journal has (twice) called it “the best value in win

country” and Open Table’s recent list of the top ten Wine CountryDiners’ winners features the Mayo Reserve Tasting Room at number

one, ahead of such full service area stalwarts as The French Laundry

Farmhouse Inn & Restaurant, the Restaurant at Meadowwood and

Dry Creek Kitchen.

So what’s the big deal? Just an incredible food pairing of seven

gourmet treats coupled with seven delicious wines, and all for the

unbelievable price of $35 per person ($25 for club members). Here i

word of caution however, make a reservation! While the Reserve

Tasting Room is open daily from 10:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. its five tabl

and eight barstools can only provide a limited amount of seating. Pla

ahead and you will have one of the best wine country experiences to

found in either Napa or Sonoma counties.

The foods for the pairings are gathered fresh in the Sonoma

tradition of “farm to table” by Chef Clayton Lewis who was with the

Bounty Hunter Wine Bar and Restaurant in Napa for more than thre

years. Chef Lewis’ 2013 Winter Menu features Twice Baked Potato Sk

paired with the 2011 Roussanne Saralee’s Vineyard, Russian River

Valley; Olive Oil Chicken Pesto with Celery Root Linguine paired wi

the 2008 Reserve Chardonnay, Laurel Hill Vineyard; Pork Short Rib

Pizzaiola with the 2008 Reserve Barbera, Kunde Ranch Vineyard;

Grilled Pork Tenderloin, Beluga Lentils and Winter Root vegetables

served with the 2007 Reserve Meritage, “Oliver’s Twist,” Napa Valley

New York Strip with Romano Beans and Sweet Peppers paired with 2007 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, Random Ridge Vineyards; Achio

Rabbit Rillette served with the 2009 Reserve Zinfandel, Ricci Vineyar

Russian River Valley; and ending up with a Tropical Fruit Turnover

paired with the 2009 Late Harvest Gewürztraminer, Kunde Ranch

Vineyard.

“Pairing our wines with great food is something our family has be

doing since we started in 1993 with our first vintage,” says Jeff Mayo

“It was pretty much a no-brainer to establish a separate space to sam

freshly prepared delicacies served with our outstanding reserve wine

Since we inaugurated the Reserve Room in 2005, and with the menu

changing seasonally, we have continually expanded our menu to try

feature as many of our wines as possible.”

Mayo Family Winery was founded by Henry and Diane Mayo and

their son Jeffrey in 1990. The original idea was to simply grow grape

which led to the planting of their Laurel Hill Vineyard in Sonoma

Valley. That idea gave way to a desire to make wine, but they did not

want to crank out just any wine. The Mayo’s would focus on capturi

the expression of the best vineyards they could find by producing sm

lots of single vineyards, which remains the focus of the family today.

Enjoy the ultimate experience in wine tasting. It is how wine is

meant to be sampled and enjoyed

Sonoma Plaza, a National Historic Landmark, is

originally home to the last of the chain of 21

California missions. Throughout its colorful

history – including the Bear Flag Revolt where the

California state flag was first raised in 1842 – the

small-town epicenter is now home to some 25

gourmet dining establishments, 40 boutique shops

and art galleries as well as 18 unique tasting

rooms. A well-known tourist destination, visitors

come to Sonoma to experience the idyllic Wine

Country lifestyle. Sure, doublewide tractors may

wooly sheep keep weeds and grasses minimal in

the vineyards. But, no doubt, you will also find

countless award-winning wineries and world-class
