1 Wine Has Been Produced for Millennia. the Earliest Evidence of a Fermented Drink Based on Grapes Goes Back About 8,000 Years HARRIS’ W INE LIST Wine has been produced for millennia. The earliest evidence of a fermented drink based on grapes goes back about 8,000 years. Here in the United States, we’ve only been making wine for about 300 years. So it’s safe to say that we’re still playing catch up. Having said that, we’ve made some amazing progress in that relatively short period of time. Wines made in the U.S. are recognized as being among the finest in the world. Given Harris’ proximity to Napa and Sonoma Counties, it’s no surprise that you’ll find an abundance of wines from those regions represented on our list. But as the history of wine spans thousands of years, we pay homage to our roots and offer a solid cross section of Old World wines as well. The world of wine is massive. Creating a truly comprehensive list is not possible, but we do try. As we are a Steakhouse, you may notice that we represent fuller bodied red wines more than lighter whites. We’re hopeful that we can help you find the right wine for any occasion. Please ask us for assistance if you’d like.

  • Domaine Laroche, Chablis `St Martin` 2015
    Domaine Laroche, Chablis `St Martin` 2015 PRODUCER Domaine Laroche epitomises Chablis, with impeccable quality and a remarkable 100 hectares of vineyards, including 30 hectares of Premier and six hectares of Grand Crus. Founded in 1850, there is still a dynamism which permeates everything they do. Michel Laroche merged with another family-owned producer, Jeanjean, in 2009 and he remains involved in the business, along with his wife Gwénaël. As part of their aim to retain purity and minerality in the finished wine, Laroche was the first Burgundian producer to move to screwcaps in 2002. VINEYARDS Saint Martin refers to the patron saint of Chablis, whose relics were kept in the domaine's ancient monastery for many years. Domaine Laroche owns 63 hectares of Chablis vineyard on the famous Kimmeridgian soil that gives the wines such precision. Each plot, of which there are 30 in total, has a different exposure, soil depth and vine age which contributes complexity to the wine and means that every parcel ripens at a different time. Gregory Viennois refers to Chardonnay's 'two-day window' of maturity - if the parcels aren't harvested in this time the precious Chablis aromas are lost. VINTAGE The 2015 vintage started with very good conditions during flowering, with dry and sunny weather. These conditions continued and were ideal for preventing diseases during ripening. On the morning of 1st September, a hailstorm affected the vineyards of Les Clos and Les Blanchots. This resulted in a partial loss of yield but didn’t impact the quality of the grapes due to careful sorting in the vineyard and in the cellar.

The pictures along the way span the period between 1509 and 1919, four centuries that start with what we might call local, empirical knowledge of wine making and finish with the birth of today’s industry and its scientific approach to viticulture and oenology.

  • A History of Wine Making in the Santa Cruz Mountains by Ross Eric Gibson
    A History of Wine Making in the Santa Cruz Mountains By Ross Eric Gibson Santa Cruz was the birthplace of California's temperance movement. But beyond the whiskey-induced revelries of the county alcohol trade lies the more genteel history of the Santa Cruz County wine industry. Its saintly origin was the mission church itself, which planted its vineyards between 1804 and 1807 in what is now the Harvey West Park area. The fruits and vegetables imported by the mission were considered the best in the world, except for a variety called "mission grapes," which was unsuited to the cool, coastal climate. It produced an inferior, bitter wine, to which the padres added brandy, producing a very sweet "Angelica" wine. Between 1850 and 1880, loggers stripped 18 million board feet of lumber from the Santa Cruz Mountains, leaving large portions of cleared land. These were well-suited to fruit farmers, who favored grapes as the most adaptable to the limitations of mountain agriculture. Scotsman John Burns settled in the area in 1851, and in 1853 planted the first commercial vines in the county. Burns named the mountain where his vineyard grew "Ben Lomond" (meaning Mount Lomond), which was the name of an old wine district in Scotland. Meanwhile, brothers John and George Jarvis established a vineyard above Scotts Valley, in a place they named "Vine Hill." These became the two pillars of the county's wine industry, which by the turn of the century would emerge as dominant in the state. Santa Cruz became a third area, when Pietro Monteverdi and Antonio Capelli from the Italian wine district established the Italian Gardens as a vineyard district on what is now Pasatiempo Golf Course.

  • A California Wine Primer
    part one A California Wine Primer Olken_Ch00_FM.indd 1 7/13/10 12:07:51 PM Olken_Ch00_FM.indd 2 7/13/10 12:07:52 PM A Brief History of Wine in California more than two hundred years after Spanish missionaries brought vine cuttings with them from Mexico’s Baja California and established the first of the California missions in San Diego, researchers at Madrid’s National Biotechnical Center, using DNA techniques, have traced those first vines back to a black grape that seems to be a dark-colored relative of the Palomino grape still in use for the production of Sherry. That humble beginning may not seem like it would have much to do with today’s bur- geoning wine industry, but the fact is that the Mission variety became the vine of choice in California as its population grew first through the arrival of trappers and wealthy landowners, then with the small but steady stream of wagon trains that came west out of the country’s heartland and the establishment in the 1840s of the clipper ship trade. By the time the trans- continental railroad was completed in 1869, California’s wine economy had become established, and despite world wars and periods in which the sale of alcohol was banned, the industry hung on and finally exploded into its current shape with the wine boom of the 1970s. Today, the Mission grape is gone, but the wine industry it helped spawn now boasts over a half million acres of wine grapes from one end of the state to the other.

    Okay, maybe that’s backwards, but you get the idea. Delicious. Don Julio Tequila is sponsoring this year’s Tequila Dinner and Pig Roast. We have 6 courses of cuisine ranging from house made tortilla chips and salsa to gazpa- chos and ceviche before hitting the main course of the whole, slow fire roasted pig. Tequila ambassadors will be on hand to answer all of your questions about the fruit of the agave (which is technically from the same family as the lily, not the cactus…)See you learned something already!! We begin the Margarita reception at 6PM and each course features a sip of the selected tequila and a small cocktail made from that tequila. Please join us on our new deck, downstairs un- der the sun and stars for this memo- rable, feasty evening.
