Handford Wines Bordeaux En Primeur 2017 Offer “Frosty Reception
Pebbles of Chateau Haut Brion Handford Wines Bordeaux En Primeur 2017 Offer “Frosty reception. Standing ovation” Page 1 of 16 Introduction Frost damage in April made the headlines. One night rarely defines a vintage; many of the great vineyards are planted in low risk areas and so damage was minimal. Through the rest of the season the more important weather events did not diminish the whole; a dry and fresh enough July and August was ideal for fruit set and development; rains in the first half of September were, by and large early enough to allow harvesting during the dry days following 20 th . These served to encourage growers to be patient before picking especially Cabernet Sauvignon at the end of the month. The best wines are the Cabernet dominated Medocs, often Saint Estephe. What’s it like? Weather stats suggest similarities to 2009, 2012 and 2014. Clearly there isn’t the ripeness of 2009, but there is the class and there is more poise and balance. The consensus seems to be 2014 with a few more horse power. That goes for right bank too where the vineyards on the plateau looked very healthy indeed in September. What’s best? Ask a good, honest wine merchant; it’s a year to focus on the few very good wines that are out there, and they need finding. The best have not been pressed to perdition, nor picked in the pouring rain. Selection of the best fruit is one important key to quality nowadays. Go with a winery that is prepared to sacrifice the average in order to stay the best. -

Antinori's Super Tuscans: Tignanello & Solaia
ROBERSON WINE FINE WINE TASTINGS ANTINORI’S SUPER TUSCANS: TIGNANELLO & SOLAIA Thursday 28th April 2011 ANTINORI’S SUPER TUSCANS THE ESTATE The family The Antinori family are well entrenched as part of Tuscan wine royalty, their involvement in the trade dating back to 1385 when Giovanni di Pierso Antinori first joined the winemakers’ guild. For many years, as was the case with other famous wine families like the Frescobaldis and Ricasolis, they were involved in the buying and selling of wine estates as well as having interests in many other trades. In 1506 Nicolo Antinori purchased the beautiful palazzo in Florence which, to this day, remains the HQ of today’s Marchese Piero Antinori and his sprawling wine empire which encompasses 24 estates in 6 different countries. For hundreds of years after the Marchese and his descendents had moved in to the palazzo, the wines of the Antinori family established a reputation as an excellent source for Tuscan wines and they began accumulating land in some of the region’s most famed viticultural areas - in particular Chianti Classico. By 1863, the family business was doing well enough that the ‘Fattoria dei Marchesi Lodovico e Piero Antinori’ was formed in order to fully professionalise what they were doing and with the aim of “establishing some order among the various winegrowing activities developed by the previous generations of Antinoris since the XIV century.”. Before long, this new company had become one of the star performers and the family’s influence continued to grow as the wines were exported throughout the world. This ambassadorial role was continued by today’s Marchese, Piero, who is widely heralded as the most important man in Tuscan wine thanks to his wide reaching efforts to improve the quality and reputation of Tuscan wines. -
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. -

THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 7, 1983 Dear Mr. Blosser: Thank for your recent letter with the attached information on Sokol Blosser Winery. I will keep your award winning wines in mind when there is a need to select more fine wines to serve at the White House. With best wishes, TtfJ!J:__ ~ICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. Bill Blosser President Sokol Blosser Winery Post Off ice Box 199 Blanchard Lane Dundee, Oregon 97115 Mr. Michael K. Deaver Deputy White House Chief of Staff White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington D.C. Dear- Mr. Deaver: It has been brought to my attention that the selection of the White House wines rests with you and that your selection is limited to U.S. wines. May I suggest that you consider the Northwestern wines when making your selection? Sokol Blosser is the largest winery in Oregon and our wines have made impressive showings at wine tastings both here and abroad. Additionally, it has been selected as the house wine at the prestigeous Benson Hotel in Portland. Enclosed you will find a list of the medals Sokol Blosser wines have won. It is also my understanding that the Presidential favorites are full-bodied, red wines and that our First Lady prefers light, white wines. Therefore, I am sending you for your evaluation a bottle of our Pinet Noir and one of our Chardonnay. A$ you may well be aware, the laws governing wine labeling are much stricter in Oregon that elsewhere in the U.S., and our climate is much like the grape producing regions of France.
