(Sangiovese & Barbera) Estate2019 Grown Rosé Mokelumne River | Lodi Appellation Tasting Notes This dry Italian style rosé bursts with fruity aromas of cherry, bright strawberry and lemon. It is a refreshing and lively wine balanced by a mouth-watering acidity and a lingering tropical finish. Vineyard Notes The advantage of having your own vineyard is have the abil- ity to control how the vineyard is managed. In the case here, we do the practices we feel create the best possible fruit able to come from the vineyards. It is shoot thinned, crop thinned, and leaves are pulled. Aaron Shinn manages our vineyard and complies with all winemakers suggestions. It is within the Mokelumne River Sub AVA of the Lodi Appellation. Soil is a somewhat sandy well drained soil, cool windy environment. The vines are trellised along a vertical shoot position system. Winemaking Notes This Estate Rosé was a saignée of both the Sangiovese and Barbera. Saignée means that the wine was hand picked for a red program and the bleed off from the sorting table was taken and treated like a white wine with a cold settling and a long cold fermentation. The juice was racked and fermented in a stainless steel tank. After a long cool fermentation to preserve aromas, the wine was racked and held cold until it could be finished for an early bottling to maintain freshness and liveliness.

Yield Components and Fruit Composition of Five Barbera Grapevine Selections in the San Joaquin Valley, California
Research Note Yield Components and Fruit Composition of Five Barbera Grapevine Selections in the San Joaquin Valley, California Matthew W. Fidelibus,1* L. Peter Christensen,1 Deborah A. Golino,2 Nancy L. Sweet,2 and Kimberley A. Cathline1 Abstract: Barbera grapevine (Vitis vinifera) selections from Foundation Plant Services (FPS), University of California, Davis, were evaluated in Parlier, Fresno County, California. Green potted plants of Barbera, FPS selections 02, 03, 04, 05, and 06, were planted in the summer of 2000, and fruit yield and quality were assessed annually between 2003 and 2006. Selection 02 performed similarly to several other selections with respect to fruit composition and yield, but its berries were 10 to 25% heavier than the others. Large berries made the clusters of FPS 02 excessively compact; the incidence of sour rot was sometimes two to three times higher for FPS 02 than for other selections. Selections 03 and 05 originated from the same mother vine and performed identically. Their fruit composition was similar to several other selections, but they had the highest, or among the highest, yield of the selections tested and were moderately susceptible to sour rot. Selection 04 was generally similar to selections 03 and 05 except that 04 had lower yields in two of the four years tested. Selection 06 was distinctive in that it was generally the earliest ripening, had the smallest berries, the lowest yields, the lowest yield:pruning weight ratios, and was the least susceptible to sour rot. Key words: clones, fruit quality, germplasm, grapes, Vitis vinifera L. Barbera is the second most widely planted red winegrape programs in Europe where evaluation is supported with in Italy, and its tendency to produce good yields of fruit public funds.

Blissful Red
Estate Wines from Mendocino County Blissful Red THE BLISS STORY In the late 1930s, our Grandfather, Irv Bliss, first visited Mendocino County and spotted a picturesque ranch among the rolling hills and unspoiled land. Years later, when Irv learned of a Mendocino property for sale, he gathered all his savings and placed a bid—sight unseen. As fate would have it, the plot Irv purchased was the original 450-acre estate that had captivated his imagination years before. Seventy years later, we still carry Irv’s love for the land through our third generation of family farmers. We celebrate Irv’s legacy by showcasing the rich fruit we grow on our property and putting our own Bliss into every bottle of wine we produce. TASTING NOTES Our perennial “pizza/pasta wine” has become ‘Blissful Red’: starring We proudly introduce our Primitivo, Zinfandel, and Sangiovese with Barbera, Merlot, Cab, and Syrah Bliss Family Vineyards Blissful Red. for additional structure. It has a nose of dried cherries, plums, and clove, followed by a rich mouth feel bursting with bright raspberries and cinnamon notes. This wine finishes with integrated tannins and good acidity to make it the perfect food match. FOOD PAIRINGS Versatile enough to pair with everything from savory pizzas to delicious pastas. Perfect with a Hawaiian “pie”, spaghetti with meatballs, or just about anything.

Grifi Toscana I.G.T. 2015
GRIFI TOSCANA I.G.T. 2015 This risk-rewarding wine is for bullish producers only. In fact in 2014 Grifi was not produced due to adverse climate conditions. An incredible blend where Sangiovese’s freshness prefectly merges with the Cabernet Sauvignon’s backbone. Another fine example of a great blend for ageing. 2015 VINTAGE PASSIONATE like the radiant sun of this vintage... Harmonious wines, warm and charming, on the canvas, the marriage between light and matter. The variable weather conditions of this vintage, with the right timing, enabled us to make powerful, yet elegant wines. TASTING NOTES The assembly of two tardive varieties in a typical warm Tuscan vintage gives an extraordinary character to this wine. On the nose, the wine reveals notes of green spices, leather and tobacco. Pleasantly elegant with seamless tannins, the 2015 Grifi shows hints of umami and undergrowth on the palate. The finish is endless and succulent. VINEYARD GRAPES 53% Sangiovese, 47% Cabernet Sauvignon. SOIL TYPE Sedimentary soils of marine origin from the Pliocene (3-5 million years ago) with the alternation of clay, loam and calcareous sand. The Cabernet Sauvignon grows on the same type of soil, but richer in more recent fluvial pebbles. VINEYARD SPECIFICS The plants are from 11 to 18 years old. The vines are guyot and cordon-trained at an altitude of approximately 300 metres a.s.l. / 984 feet a.s.l. and grow at a density of 2,564 - 5,682 plants / hectare (1,025 - 2,271 plants / acre). VINIFICATION HARVEST The Sangiovese was picked from the 10th to the 28th of September, the Cabernet Sauvignon was picked on October 6th.

Selachus Sangiovese - Cabernet Sauvignon Toscana Igt
SELACHUS SANGIOVESE - CABERNET SAUVIGNON TOSCANA IGT Our roots run throughout Tuscany. They stretch beyond the gentle hills, beyond the olive trees that stand as guardians of time. They are bound to the rosebushes, sentinels at the head of the vineyard rows entrusted with perceiving the aroma. Before history, before man. Our vineyards extend where there was once the sea, as the teeth and bones of ancient, fossil Selachus sharks found here show, and they draw on a powerful, relentless force. This extraordinary energy is transfused into the grapes, custodians of the emotions that our wine will awaken. Our passion is the devotion contained in every barrel that merges yesterday with tomorrow. Our wines, are witnesses of a unique and special history: they transport us through time.

88% Sangiovese, 12% Merlot VINEYARD SOURCES: Seven Hills, Stillwater Creek CELLAR TREATMENT: 100% Neutral French Oak PRODUCTION: 190 Cases ALCOHOL: 14.6% by Volume
AVA: Walla Walla Valley VARIETAL COMPOSITION: 88% Sangiovese, 12% Merlot VINEYARD SOURCES: Seven Hills, Stillwater Creek CELLAR TREATMENT: 100% neutral French oak PRODUCTION: 190 cases ALCOHOL: 14.6% by volume The deep red color is the first clue that our 2015 vintage is a classic new world Sangiovese. Black cherries and plums dominate the aroma, with hints of tobacco and spice. Take a sip and experience a mouthwatering explosion of those same flavors: black cherry, plum and black currants from the Sangiovese, with softer fruit and floral notes from the Merlot. The finish features fine smooth tannins, lingering fruit, herbs and light tobacco overtones. This wine will pair beautifully with any red-sauced pizza or pasta dish. Salute! 2015 was a record hot year in Eastern Washington, perfect for ripening Sangiovese. The fruit arrived from Seven Hills Vineyard in the Walla Walla Valley on September 23. Primary fermentation in stainless steel fermenters took 10 days, and after pressing the wine went into neutral French oak barrels for aging. The wine was racked twice and blended before bot- tling with Merlot from famed Stillwater Creek Vineyard to add a bit of smooth body and depth. Bottle aged for nine months before release, this wine is ready to enjoy now and will age well for several years to come.
