Inglenook Experiences & Private Events Inglenook Experiences & Private Events Inglenook, Once Again and Forever he Inglenook legacy began in 1879 when Gustave Niebaum, a Finnish sea captain, wine T connoisseur and entrepreneur, came to Rutherford to build a wine estate that would rival Europe’s finest.

  • 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Grown Rutherford Napa Valley
    2017 CABERNET SAUVIGNON ESTATE GROWN RUTHERFORD NAPA VALLEY A BRIEF HISTORY For decades, it has been our goal to produce a Rutherford AVA, estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon. Inspired by the early Cabernets of Inglenook and Beaulieu Vineyard, we’ve spent the past 20 years finding, farming and obtaining highly sought after land in Rutherford—with particular attention to the Rutherford Bench—to pursue our dream and perfect our craft. It all began with the acquisition of the Red Barn Vineyard in 1994. This prime real estate provided us with 40 acres of soil perfectly suited to grow Merlot and Cabernet sauvignon and a century-old facility in which we would become Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon producers for the first time. Immediately following our move to Rutherford, Frank Leeds—longtime Frog’s Leap Vineyardist—agreed to a partnership between Frog’s Leap and his family’s Chavez Leeds Vineyard. This generational vineyard situated on the iconic Rutherford Bench gave us our first real taste of how complex and connected dry-farmed, organically-grown Cabernet Sauvignon from this storied part of the appellation could be. Finally, in 2007, we purchased the historic Rossi Vineyard located in the very heart of the Rutherford Bench. This 50 acre vineyard was purchased by the Rossi family in 1906 and is located only a stone’s throw away from the two vineyards that originally inspired us. Now mostly planted to Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc the Rossi Vineyard completed the picture by yielding high quality Rutherford grapes for an all estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon to stand with our predecessors.

    Historic Fireplaces & their evolution Heritage Directory Note www.theheritagedirectory.co.uk Copyright The Heritage Directory 2010 v2 An overview of changes in fireplace design over time. Historic Fireplaces before 1680 The inglenook is one of the oldest forms of fireplaces, evolved from the smoke bay and the transition from open fires. Copyright The Heritage Directory www.theheritagedirectory.co.uk 2009 This example has the surviving pot cradle and built in side seat and salt store, with later added cornice mantel. They are often associated with later inserted bread ovens. Copyright The Heritage Directory www.theheritagedirectory.co.uk 2009 The dome of the bread oven interior is often delicately shaped. Higher status rooms have stone fireplaces, usually with a Tudor arch. These fireplaces are often marked with apotropaic witches marks to ward off evil spirits which might come down the chimney. Copyright The Heritage Directory www.theheritagedirectory.co.uk 2009 Higher status fireplaces might be enhanced with a carved mantelpiece. Historic Fireplaces 1680 to 1700 In the late 17th century the traditional stone fireplace started to evolve into a more classical form. Copyright The Heritage Directory www.theheritagedirectory.co.uk 2009 Bolection mouldings and cornice mantelpiece are a feature of the late 17th century. Note the cast iron fireback, a feature of open fireplaces of the 16th and 17th century, though often now reproduction. Bolection fireplaces were simplified to just stone surrounds, even in high status buildings. Copyright The Heritage Directory www.theheritagedirectory.co.uk 2009 Around 1700 a brief fashion for corner fireplaces occurred . Historic Fireplaces before 1700 to 1750 In the early 18th century, eared fireplaces become fashionable and marble replaced stone.

  • Inglenook Historical Timeline : 1842 - 2011
    INGLENOOK HISTORICAL TIMELINE : 1842 - 2011 1842 30th August – Gustav Ferdinand Nybom is born in Helsinki, Finland. 1861 Nybom graduates from the Nautical Institute in Helsinki (19 years old) After receiving his master papers from Nautical Institute, Nybom (22 yrs old) commands a ship headed to Alaska, which is part of the Russian 1864 Empire. Not long after the US purchase of Alaska, Nybom sails into San Francisco harbour with a ship loaded with Alaskan furs. He creates the Alaska Commercial Company (26 yrs old) which, for the next 50 years, would build important trading stations in the Yukon and Aleutian Islands. 1868 The company also owned ocean steamers, sailing vessels and river boats, which were the only means of transportation to and from San Francisco during the Gold Rush, as well as fur operations and salmon canneries. William C Watson, son in law of George C Yount (founder of Yountville) and manager of the Bank of Napa, buys the 78 acre G. Koni farm, west of Rutherford. He 1872 names it Inglenook, a Scottish expression meaning 'cozy corner' or 'fireside,' and plants the first vines. 1873 Nybom changes his name to Gustave Niebaum and marries Susan Shingleberger, a native Californian. 1873-1879 Agricultural and industrial depression hits the US economy. California winemakers consider abandoning the industry. Watson sells the Inglenook land to Judge S Clinton Hastings, founder of the University of California Hastings Law School. Niebaum, who by this time had amassed a personal fortune in excess of $10 million, buys the 440 acre farm from Mrs. Rohlwing and the 78 acre Inglenook Farm from Judge Hastings.

  • The Ten Commandments of Model Railroad Yard Design
    The Ten Commandments of Model Railroad Yard Design By Craig Bisgeier Sample Yard Layout You may find it helpful to print out this diagram before reading the article. Having a hard copy of the diagram to refer to as you are reading will probably be a big help for some of the more difficult concepts. This is definitely a case of a picture being worth a thousand words... One of the most often modeled -- and misunderstood -- layout design elements is the yard. Nearly everyone has one on their layout, whether it's used simply for car storage or as an actual operating tool. Unfortunately, many of them don't work very well. Common design mistakes are made over and over again by beginner and intermediate modelers. They can't be faulted, though, because the info on how to design a good yard is very hard to find. Even when the hobby press gets it right, it's short-lived, because if you missed the issue you didn't see it. Most of the time you see poor examples (like the hated Timesaver) which are often published by the hobby press without comment, and therefore accepted by those who do not know better as good design. So the "secrets" of good yard design are difficult to for most to uncover, because the good nuggets of information appear in wildly different places like out of print magazines or books, special interest publications, or even word of mouth among advanced modelers. not many modelers have that kind of library or access. What is needed is a repository where all the good ideas can be collected, stored, edited and presented as one all-encompassing primer on the subject.

  • 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon
    2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Inglenook Cabernet Sauvignon is a tribute to John Daniel Jr., who produced the much- heralded Inglenook 1941 Cabernet Sauvignon from vine cuttings brought to the Ingle- nook Estate from Bordeaux by founder Gustave Niebaum. Today, this estate-grown wine is blended with the finest lots of Cabernet Sauvignon and other Bordeaux varieties that remain after the highly selective blending of Rubicon. Vintage Notes After four years of drought, a winter with average rainfall was welcome, as it provided ample soil moisture for a strong start to the 2016 growing season. Average late-spring temperatures and limited precipitation minimized the risk of frost during mid-May bloom, ensuring average yields. June closed with a heat spell, slowing vine canopy growth at the ideal time. All fruit for the 2016 Inglenook Cabernet Sauvignon blend was harvested under ideal conditions from September 6th through October 10th. Winemaker’s Tasting Notes On the nose, the 2016 Inglenook Cabernet Sauvignon opens with very focused fresh, ripe black cherry and blackberry aromas. In the background, scents of garrigue – lavender, thyme, and bay – emerge and build complexity. On the palate, the wine is superbly balanced to the point that it is difficult to identify individual flavor components, although cassis bud and blackberry do reveal themselves. The fine-grained, polished tannins are very much in harmony with the oak and exhibit an underlying firmness that continues throughout the long, lingering aromatic finish.

Da Mexico løsrev seg fra Spania i 1821 ble de californiske misjonsstasjonene snart sekularisert og jorda solgt som storgods.

Etter at Mexico avstod California til USA i 1848 skjedde mye av tilførselen via planteskoler på østkysten, og vindyrkingen blomstret videre. Dessuten vokste markedet som følge av San Franciscos vekst under gullrushet fra 1849 og åpningen av den transkontinentale jernbanen. Zinfandel og Cabernet Sauvignon var de fremste druesortene.
